In a recent chat with Games Radar, Lionhead boss Peter Molyneux explained his company's new development mantra for the massive Xbox 360 Fable sequel: LESS IS MORE.
At the moment the Fable 2 design director is telling his team to focus less on features and more on polishing. "Lionhead games need less random features, but to refine and hone the core features," he said.
The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?
I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*
Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.
Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.
The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.
When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....
Fable II launched back in 2008 and remains the best the series has offered. Ahead of the series comeback, it's time to look at the classic.
Loved this game, oh and i always saved my dog at the end, hope the new Fable has a animal companion.
Fable 2 was the best inthe series. Peter waaaaaaay over promised with fable 1 and it was good but disappointing. He didn't go crazy eith hype for the second game and it was surprisingly awesome. Then he ran his mouth promoting 3 and it was the worst of the 3.
I only got to play it once 😩 I'm so tempted to buy a Xbox 360 slim but planning on getting the series x soon since I got a PS5 in February Im ready to get saints row 1&2 back, GTA 4, fable 2, but I also want to play infamous 1&2 again Sony screwed us over with the stream only for saints row 2 and other gems smh
It’s foolish to say that one RPG is "better" than all the rest across systems and generations. This is merely the 25 RPGs we feel are the best and nothing more!
Dragon Quest 11 isn't even the best Dragon Quest game, it's a good game, but not the best. Dragon Quest 8 is superior to it in almost every way.
OK let's end this, in order

Final Fantasy 8

Some of my personal favorites are Planescape: Torment, New Vegas, Morrowind, Kotor 2, Wasteland 3, Witcher 2, Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, Deus Ex, Disco Elysium and Vampyr.
As far as jrpg, while I'm not as big a fan as I am for Western RPGs, I love Persona 3 - 5, Dragon Quest 8 and 11, Rogue Galaxy, Final Fantast 6,7, and 12; and Lost Odyssey.
Is weird. He gets all worked up over the dumbest stuff. I remember in one of the dev diaries he talks for 5 minutes how you can't control the dog! OMG
Still looks like an awesome game.
yea your right he does get work up for the dumbest sh!t but yea the game looking kick ass.
Rpg's cant get quite complex when you start putting more stuff into it.
Emm so please explain how a game like Mass Effect is said to be on ONE DISC? Please I would really like to know.
More stupid comments from those without a clue.
u know fable 2 might suck...and i luved fable one, but him simplifing the battle systen to one button....might get really repetitive. no dying.....is it gonna turn to zelda???
about disk space. well yeah oblivion fits on one disk, but it has a basic combat system, and no scenes, which is why it could fit, which is fine. but if u add alot of features then they take up alot more space. that and Jrpgs, those always have alot of cinematics which eat up disk space, main reason blue dragon needs 3 disks.
dead or alive 4 used the whole disk, and thats cuz theres alot of different interaction between each character, and level, the counters, the throws, the moves, the outfits, the huge levels.
it depends what kinda game it is that takes up the space. american games most likley wont use up all disk space tho since they usually make straight forward games (stil fun) and have 0 scenes, usually just a real time man talking. while jap games use motion capture and other things for stuff like fight scenes and so on
