You're not the only one, but the day David Cage entered the videogaming scene Molyneux started to sound not that bad anymore (plus, I will always praise his former company for the three outstanding Bullfrog Productions franchises: Dungeon Keeper, Syndicate, Magic Carpet).

Well the only thing i know about David Cage's inteviews is that he has weird pronunciations

though the guy that talked about 3D Motorstorm in gamescome (i really can't find the video) suddenly came out and made PM looks like a noob in the BS department

Where is this BS? Did you just generalise him?

The game looks really good 


its the way he talks , everything he talks about make it seem like hes creating a game called Jesus II : the return of the savior, hes a lot like Steve Jobs when he talks about the IPod/IPhone or whatever.

and i also hate how he bash older ideas like when he talked about " Controller are a thing of the past" and now here talks about "the bland and boring pause menu" , and then after awhile he backs off and says the exact opposite of what he said awhile ago.

not to mention that a lot of stuff he talk about in the "Demo" shows are never going to be on the game , hes just talking bullshit.

I find that puffery  enertaining actually. 



Interesting stuff. I like the morphing.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Have you ever played a Bullfrog game, e.g. the ones I mentioned above or Molyneux' Populous from 1989, one of the very first god games? I agree that Molyneux appears to sound a bit arrogant at times, but I got used to it and to me he'll always be a game design (or more a game producer) legend for the games created by his former comany. Lionhead makes some good games, but Bullfrog made some brilliant and very influential games which most probably wouldn't exist without Molyneux.

BTW: While i used to laugh at him and his exaggerations a few years ago, today I more and more have this strange feeling that Molyneux isn't very happy anymore with the direction his curent company is taking. Will they do Fable-type games forever and will they really just start collecting new ideas once Fable III is out and everyone is coming back from their vacations (as he recently stated)? If so, this company is not in the best possible state and completely dependent from Microsoft's goodwill (Ensemble Studios' fate comes to mind). I don't think this was Molyneux' goal when he left Bullfrog in 1997 and founded Lionhead Studios to be independent again.



the only thing I don't like is those cut scene finish there are way to many of those other then that I hope this game will be better then the second



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

I don't necessarily agree with that analysis. I am under the impression that Molyneux calls pretty much all the shots at Lionhead. Nevermind that I see the fact that Microsoft let Lionhead/Molyneux have the entire Gamescom conference to announce Fable III last year, shows how much respect they in turn have for him. This combined with the fact that he's the head of Microsoft Game Studios in Europe shows me he's quite happy where he is with Microsoft. I really don't think Microsoft has much say at what goes on at Lionhead tbh.
