More Fable on the Way?

The Fable series has been either a hit more miss with gamers, mostly a miss. While the games have been fun to a degree, they haven’t lived up to the hype.

Sorry for the bad editing in the description, meant to post "a hit or miss". Cheers!

Mostly a miss? Every fable game sold in the millions.

Even when they kept straying away from the first one.

Fable games are great games. The stories and the humorous voice acting is enchanting. No other game has the magic that fable has. People who haven't played it probably hate it because the graphics are not on par with today's games. But that's not the point of fable the point was always the magic and the stories in the Fable Universe And they're going to use Unreal Engine 4 this time around. So graphics will be awesome this time.

Sales has nothing to do with it. I've enjoyed the Fable games in the past, but they're always hyped up and fail to delver on the promises made. If Fable 4 ends up being good, then great. I'm all for more Fable games, so long as they're actually good and not over hyped. I guess we'll see in time.

Theyve definitely got worse but I would say even the third one was a solid game. I just really disliked how they set up the world and characters in the first and then set the sequel 500 years later making everyone dead and the world was completely different.

Lionhead are supposed to be doing an mmo so I don't think Fable 4 is imminent

The 1st and 3rd Fable I liked. The game does sale in the millions. Its one MS trusted and well known Ips.

Hopefully the guys at Lionhead can get something going with Fable without Peter Molyneux talking half the time.

The first one was the best, Fable 2 and 3 were said to offer alot but never did.

Then the puppet one look to kiddy and the Kinect one did look cool but not to many want to use Kinect.

I like a Fable game to be what they said it will be and without Kinect or at least not force to use Kinect.

ZILLA3986d ago

Really!?i would have never quess that.talk about beating a dead horse.

GRRiMREEAPeR3986d ago

I was super hyped for the original Fable- and while it was a good game it fell way short of what i really wanted. Then every iteration that followed seemed to stray further and further from what the original idea molynewz told us the series would represent.

Sorry but I feel Skyrim came along and was (or was at least close enough to) the 'Fable' I always wanted.

RiPPn3986d ago

Really enjoyed the first 3, but will probably never touch the Kinect abomination, Fable: The Journey. And not planning on an Xbox One, so likely won't play another, sadly.

‘It’s been really painful’: Ex-Lionhead devs explain why they’ve announced, and shelved, a new game

An independent UK developer says it’s been forced to announce and postpone its game on the same day, and lay off more than half of its staff, due to the sharp downturn in investment in the games industry.

Peter Molyneux has high hopes for Playground's Fable

One of the biggest reveals at this year's Xbox Games Showcase was the latest Fable trailer. After a lengthy stint of silence, Playground Games gave us a look at bits of the title, albeit in a trailer that was mostly made up of CGI nonsense headlined by comedian Richard Ayoade, who is playing a rather frustrated giant.

Molyneux asked about what he thought about the Fable reveal.

Damm thats a name I haven't heard from in what seems like since forever.

Nebaku302d ago

And we thank the lord each day.

Michiel1989302d ago

he actually was in the news every now and then with a (couple) scam games he made

Double_O_Revan302d ago

The exact same thought came to mind when I read the headline. It's been so long since we've heard his lies and over ambitions.

A failed hack designer has high hopes for Fable lol incoming flop confirmed!

Godmars290302d ago

Well, he's not associated with it. Giving interviews talking about features never at any point mentioned with devs let alone introduced.

It might have a chance.

Godmars290302d ago

Peter Molyneux: Hideo Kojima minus ability and skill.

Godmars290302d ago

Think you mean ethics.

Also, whose defending Molyneux? Wasn't his last game a literal ripoff with him offering a prize but not giving it?

KwietStorm_BLM302d ago

I wonder if those hopes are higher or lower than Milo?
