Is he for real??? He says the game is not on-rails, but then says that you spend most of your time on a horse, that you dont control??? The guy didnt even mention how you will move, I want to see how this plays out, because this guy does not have a great track record, when it comes to promising things
Really, just add a nav controller, screw this noise about not wanting to copy

Basically, think about it like real life, how would you control a horse sitting in a carraige?

You would whip the ropes in your hand to make the horse move, if you stop whipping your the horse would eventually stop (or you can probably stop immediately by pulling the ropes hard). Plus besides that you can change the direction of the horse with more hand/body motions. I think its a very good prospect.

I can tell you are not a rabid supporter of Kinect, or any of its titles, but at least give the game a chance, these guys are good at what they make.

the man said that most of the game would be on horse and carragie. So it does in face sound like it will be mostly on rails. This is not going to be like the regular Fable games where your going to play the entire game sans controller. Plus, this is Pete we are talking about, maybe if it was some other guy, but he makes promises for games that he cant keep. I like the tech of Kinect, i do. but outside of exercise and dancing nothing else has impressed me. But if im wrong ill eat crow
