Peter Molyneux explains why Fable: The Journey has no melee attacks

 - August 12th, 2011
It may be yet another Fable game where Peter Molyneux will inevitably promise gameplay ideas that he never delivers on fully, but at least the latest Fable game is looking to be a half decent, as the use of the Unreal engine is giving this first person fantasy steampunk game some nice visuals. Gameplay videos show our hero firing ... [»]

Peter Molyneux compares Kinect to the mouse

 - July 14th, 2011
Lionhead’s Peter Molyneux has compared Microsoft’s full-body motion-sensing peripheral with the advent of the computer mouse, which also saw derision and a general lack of acceptance in its early days, in the land before time."You know what? This is exactly like the mid-80s when we got the Amiga and we started playing with a mouse," said the man big promises "I can remember everyone writing about how the mouse is the worst thing ... [»]

Peter Molyneux bored with similarity in modern games

 - June 30th, 2011
I love Peter Molyneux, I really do. I think he’s a video game visionary who, given an unlimited budget and unlimited time would probably create something befitting of his unlimited promises. He did give us Populous and Syndicate, after all. Unfortunately, he’s shackled by the Jolly Green Giant – so he’s pretty much been churning out nothing but Fable for the past ... [»]

Peter Molyneux admits Kinect, as an input device, has “some real problems”

 - June 21st, 2011
Uh oh. In an interview about Fable: The Journey, one of Kinect’s most ardent supporters, the legendary British game designer Peter Molyneux, has admitted that Kinect isn’t an ideal input device. Kinect, which Microsoft has invested heavily in (half a billion Dollars on advertising alone), allows players to eschew traditional game controllers, and use their bodies to control games as if by ...

Milo and Kate behind the scenes: motion-capture

 - March 1st, 2011
Back at E3 2009, Peter Molyneux announced an ambitious new project that made use of Microsoft’s Kinect controller (back when it was still called Project Natal). Molyneux’s project was Milo and Kate, a game in which players interact with a young boy. It was met with mixed responses: some people were ... [»]

Fable III PC dated, new DLC announced

 - February 25th, 2011
A while ago, Lionhead Studios had to announce that the PC version of Fable III was still coming - possibly because all hype for that version had died quietly. But Fable III is still coming to PC! It is! And now there's a release date for all of you desperate to ... [»]

The Neux predicts Kinect will spawn new genres

I’m just going to go right ahead and say this: I’m a huge Peter Molyneux fan. In fact he’s on the top of my “People I’d like to have lunch with” list followed closely by George Lucas and then maybe Cliffy B. Although I have a feeling Cliffy B would rather ... [»]

Surprise! Fable III DLC is on its way

Peter Molyneux : I’ve never made a Great Game

 - October 22nd, 2010
If there’s any one thing Peter Molyneux - legendary game designer - is known for, it’s hyping features in his game that never actually come to fruition. Despite his being the undisputed champion of needless hyperbole, he’s also filled with a whole lotta humility. Or isn’t. “It’s not humility,” he says, of his insistence that Fable 2 contained elements that were ‘crap’, ‘gimmicky,’ and ‘a terrible crime.’ He goes further, saying he’s never made a “great” game. ...

Axed Fable 3 Kinect Mini-Games Sound Terrible

When Fable III is released later this month, it’ll ship sans any of the promised Kinect compatibility. By the sounds of it, that’s a good thing. Some of the binned mini-games have been detailed, and they sound pretty horrible. Kotaku recently went to a Fable 3 media event in New Yor, and learned ... [»]

Molyneux, Rare Wanted controller for Kinect

Soon to be released, Kinect is being touted as a controller-free peripheral. You ARE the controller, and other such marketing hyperbole.
