In a recent chat, Lionhead Studios head Peter Molyneux revealed that the current change in temperature we are experiencing is in fact Spring, and with that comes another Fable II DLC.

“The next DLC comes out in the spring … We’re in the spring now so don’t think months, think more like weeks. It’s called See the Future.”

Amazing. The man is brilliant. One minute the snow is there and then poof. Read more…

British TV presenter and celebrity-man Jonathan Ross has revealed in his Twitter that he “Got asked to do voice in Fable 3 tonight.” Needless to say, in a later update he mentions that he has to “apologize to Peter Molyneux”. Whoops. In any case, it looks like we’ll be seeing a Fable 3 in the future, with or without Ross’ voice.

I feel a bit sorry for Molyneux, since his so-far secret baby has been revealed to the world (well, mostly just to people who read gaming blogs). Oh, and another post of his suggests that “Charlie Brooker said he would do a voice for it to[o]!”- another British TV man, but this one is a funny, funny man.

Fable II is one of those games that some people have been waiting for even before the original was released.  Peter Molyneux tried as hard as he could to keep things low key, but try as he might, the hype machine just could not be stopped.  So, does the game live up to expectations or does it soil itself trying to impress the ladies?  Read on dear reader, and find out….

The latest edition of Sessler’s Soapbox courtesy of our friends over at G4TV features a visibly in pain Adam Sessler juggling everything but the kitchen sink as he shares his impressions and overall score for the just released Fable II. Here what Adam has to say after the jump. Read more…

Aren’t developers supposed to be the arch enemies of the review score system, railing at their gross inadequacy to whittle the brilliance and complexities of their work into an arbitrary numerical score? Peter Molyneux’s constantly hailed the brilliance and complexity of his newest masterpiece, Fable II, but apparently he has no problem with review scores (well, as long as he’s the one giving them out). Molyneux recently remarked that he was super-pleased with how Fable II has turned out, saying:

“I’d rate it a 9 out of 10… It’s the best, most complete game I’ve ever worked on.”

Hey, it’s pretty humble when it comes to self-praise, considering what we’ve been hearing about certain other outspoken designers.

Peter Molyneux indicates how many days it would have taken him to create Earth.

There is an interview over at GameTrailers with Peter Molyneux that has some pretty interesting stuff about Fable 2… and beyond. The highlights include more discussion about the co-op and how that all works, as well as what I like to call “wuss mode” where you can’t kill any “friendly” townies and the like.

The most intriguing part is toward the end when Peter Molyneux states that Lionhead Studios is planning on releasing three more Fable games, even though the sequel (aptly titled Fable 2) is still two months away from release.

“We’ve got plans for Fable 3, 4 and 5 actually. It’s a big story arc and if you play Fable II you’ll recognize things from Fable 1.”

In an attempt to get you more excited about Fable 2’s release, Peter Molyneux and the studly geniuses at Lionhead are giving you an early taste in the form of an Xbox Live Arcade game. Read more…

A few minutes ago at the Microsoft keynote, Peter Molyneux officially showed off the online co-op of the upcoming Fable 2.

Unfortunately for him, however, his in-game friend happened to murder Peter’s wife right in front of him. Oh yeah, Peter Molyneux is a red-headed chick with some nice boobs, which came as quite a shock to me. He looks much different on camera. Read more…

With GDC just around the corner, the rumour mill is running at full speed. Normally most of these rumours turn out to be nothing more than falsities or let downs, but this one seems to be carrying some weight.
