Gratz fans of Fable, you got another game on it's way.

This one has better quality:
http://www.gametrailers.com/video/gc-09-fable-3/54432

And some extra info from Molyneux himself:
"You are going to become the ruler of the whole of Albion. You've played in this land in Fable 1, in Fable 2 you became a hero; this time, why not rule Albion? Why not be a king or a queen?"

"You can eradicate poverty by giving all the money in your treasure room to the people. Or you can keep it all yourself and be more of a tyrant. The point is, there are always consequences."
and Apparently you're also going to be able to interact more with the NPCs...


well..I will probably most likely not buy this game. It would just dissapoint me...

Woot Wooooot!

It will probably be a quality game, but I can't listen to Molyneux. You can tell he's very enthusiastic about his work, at least.

holy ****! there actualy making it! that kicks ass!

I am not fable three

[martyk]

Goody.  I'm looking forward to this.  The Fable series has yet to dissapoint me.  True, they have yet to make me weap tears of gold like Moleneux often promises, but they're still great games, just not Jesus-awesome games.

I was disappointed with fable two, it wasn't as open ended as it could have been it was very very boring the combat was repetitive and the choices where basic. IF i hear good things about fable three i will purchase it, BUT i will not pre order this one and await dissapointment.

[Gauphastus]

Didn't like the first much at all, but you know.. the second one wasn't all that bad.
I felt pretty well immersed. There are things in there that are quite satisfying. We just need less bounding ahead in time.
Seriously.

And I would love a huge boost in the variety of settings and places to explore.

Nope not this time, I am not getting excited for this again. I was hyped up about fable 2 and then you coulden't even die in the game.

I could tape the attack button down and leave for and hour and beat any boss like that. I see no reason why Fable 3 wont have the god awful mechanic since PM is obsessed with not leaving out the casual gamer despite the fact that its a hardcore game.

[shock223]

is this all that Mircosoft is announcing?

i expect at lest more than just one game..

[Plank of Wood]

By Tyrant do they mean ruling like most Medieval rulers or do they mean renaming Albion to Oceania and burning dolphins as a power source?

[eropS]

I hope its the second one.

[Plank of Wood]

Oh good, because if the Total War series has taught me anything is that all Monarchs are arses in general. Even if you try to be "Nice" you're still murdering hundreds of people in huge quantities, causing much terror amongst innocent people who are having their homes ripped up because of a seige and not to mention that no matter what you do you'll always be some sort of a monster in another Kingdom.

So therefore if being "Evil" in this game is limited at being like Medieval France was like then the Karma system is broke.

[sporelord]

I agree plank, i think that the fable series doesnt understand basic dictionary definitions, therefore they promise what they think means one thing when in reality it means the opposite.

[Skyward]

I highly doubt thats it...


He's is just a spirited game developer and actually has enthusiasm for his games, but that some times gets the better of him, and he goes a bit over the top, getting people wrapped up with "promises" and hype.
