ShortList: Peter Molyneux interview

ShortList writes: "Fable II on Xbox 360 is going to tell you one of the greatest stories ever, and to do that it's using a dog.

On the 24th of October Microsoft Studios and Lionhead studios will release Fable II, the sequel to the 3 million-selling Fable, recipient of fifty gaming awards. At the head of this ambitious project is industry icon Peter Molyneux, a self-described "no hoper" who was lowest-scoring student in the history of his school.

Casual gamers might not be familiar with Molyneux as a personality, but will most likely know his work. As the leading force behind classics such as Populous, Theme Park, and Black and White, Molyneux, inventor of the "God Game", has carved out a place for himself as the industry's most ambitious games designer. He and his studio stand at the forefront of artificial intelligence in video games."

The 7 Best Xbox 360 Games - Console Exclusives Win the Day

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?

DrDoomer879d ago

I'm pretty used to these lists being bad, but this one is particularly s#ite.

raWfodog878d ago

I think Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon should have been added to the list.

BrainSyphoned879d ago

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*

Husker42c879d ago

I really loved Shadow Complex.

P_Bomb878d ago

Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.

ChasterMies879d ago (Edited 879d ago )

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.

Abnor_Mal879d ago (Edited 879d ago )

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.

darthv72878d ago

360 had Namco hitters AC6 and RR6... both quality titles. You should at least bust out the 360 for AC6 if you can score the flight stick. Its great.

Hofstaderman878d ago

When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....

Profchaos878d ago (Edited 878d ago )

It's a nostalgia peice same reason we get thousands of YouTube videos on sega genisis. Something people have fond memories for but the era is long gone.

It's xboxs golden year imo it was their genisis years the time where they stuck it to the market leaders Sony.

BehindTheRows878d ago

They stuck nothing. Sony screwed themselves giving Xbox an opening. They would have gotten the usual smack down if the PS3 had launched at $399 and was easier to develop for.
