SONY CONFERENCE INCOMING! WATCH IT HERE!
Gamescom has begun! Here's the latest news:
- Fable Legends has been announced. Here's a brief runthrough:
"A hero fights some goblin-like redcaps on a clifftop, giving himself a running commentary as he does so: "our hero enters the scene: brave, charming, capable of self-narration." It's a good-humoured fairytale, just like Fable has always been.
But there is a difference. The hero on-screen, a Prince Charming type who flourishes a rapier and wise-cracks in classic Fable style - is just one of four working together. The other three - a fabulously-attired magician, a female warrior with a shield that looks like it weighs as much as she does, a crossbow-wielding archer - are controlled by other players. And the enemies are controlled by another, fifth player: the villain. From a top-down perspective, the villain controls the heroes' quest, placing enemies, traps, ambushes and more in their path as they play. He's the classic dungeon master."
- There will be a Call Of Duty Xbox One Bundle
- In addition, all pre-ordered Xbox One systems will come free with FIFA 14.
- The Fighter Within has been revealed, and it's a Kinect title. It doesn't look that great, but judge for yourself.
- Looks like Ryse: Son of Rome won't be all QTE's after all, but I'm waiting for more information on that one.
