Peter Molyneux rates Fable II a 9/10

It's not what you think. I would be really impressed to see a review of a game written by its creator, I am sure it would be quite interesting, although a touch one-sided. He has said that he thinks that Fable 2 is a 9/10. The question is, are game reviewers going to feel the same way? In a recent interview with the Lionhead boss, Molyneux has made it very clear that he is very happy with the end result that will be hitting our shelves and states quite clearly that he has fully delivered on his promises this time, saying " Black & White, The Movies, Dungeon Keeper, pretty much every game I've ever done has had interesting features thrown in to the pot without worrying what the flavour was like," and also says that he hasn't made "the same mistakes I made in the past,". From our lazygamer.co.za comment threads it has become quite clear that while many gamers are very excited to get their hands on Fable 2, there are others that feel that the game is not worth their while. Being a fantasy role playing game, it will push away anyone who is not keen for those types of games. Molyneux goes on a bit more about what he loves about RPG's saying "RPGs are one of the most complex game types there are," added Molyneux. "But for me, the idea of being who I want to be and my character being different to yours, well, I think is one of the coolest genres of game." Fable 2 hits shelves on October 24. Are you going to be buying it at launch or do you think its an over-hyped waste of time? Leave your comments below and let us know where you stand.

After it eventual release, Too Human has been on the boot end of many a reviewer over the past weeks. After taking roughly ten years to develop, many felt let down and disappointed with the final product. Dennis Dyack has obviously been very vocal about his thoughts on reviewers that don't like it but ironically, it is someone from the same company that they sued, Epic Games, that is defending the game. A review of Cliffs on giantbomb.com gives an in depth review of his experience with the game and he has a lot of points to make on why he enjoyed the and why he thinks that many critics were way too harsh on their reviews and just plain wrong with many of their complaints. Check out the full review for yourself in the link posted below and leave us a comment on what you think of his views and wether or not he has any good points.

Resistance 2 – Shipping Out Trailer

Resistance 2’s marketing reminds me a lot of Halo, not the actual marketing but the way that the story is being marketed more than the game itself. Not that this is a bad thing as it obviously worked for Halo and Resistance is more than capable of holding that badge on the PS3… Not to mention that I would prefer …

Microsoft cuts Xbox 360 accessory prices

By Gavin Mannion

in :  Gaming

One of the biggest, and most valid, complaints against the Xbox 360 is the completely overpriced accessories for the thing. Not only does the 360 not come with built in wireless but it costs over R1000 to add the functionality in. So when I saw a headline this morning stating that the prices were going to be dropped I though …
