In fact, during our scheduled to time to sit down with him last week - when Microsoft brought Fable II (and Peter) to San Francisco to let us check out the game – we had barely walked in the door and started our tape recorder when the conversation started. Hence the weird beginning below. As soon as I walked in the room, we started discussing the last quest I had accomplished.
Peter was extremely curious to hear about my experience with the game so far, even though I'd only been playing for about 30 minutes. But immediately we had a ton to talk about, since the expansiveness and variety or things you and do in Fable II is evident from the very beginning. So please join this chat with game design guru Peter Molyneux mid stride while we talk about his impressive new Xbox 360 exclusive, Fable II. This is a transcript of our recorded conversation:"

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*
Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.
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.
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.
When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....
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.
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.
