Forums - Gaming - Molyneux: “If I Made Something Like ICO, I’d Be Very Happy To Die”

David Cage delivered on the hype he built. Peter never does. I think that's the difference. It's not like Peter hasn't said anything bad either, he's not always the old British guy with a quick wit and a smile at the end of every word. 


Indigo Prophecy was one of the most boring and awkward games i've ever played. 

Where Fable II is in my top 3 favorite X360 games.

Also Fable II is rated above Heavy Rain on Metacritic, so I would kindly ask you to spout your trolling nonsense elsewhere. :)(I know that metacritic is a horrible judge of quality but I rather just take out your legs now and deal with someone who's argument isn't "lol peter sucks, all hail David!")

You know... your post fits in with what he said just fine if you really think about it.

I was mainly referring to their releases this year. I played Fable 2, it's one my favourite 360 games, I've also made that apparent on this site, but Fable 3 is a mismanaged mess in comparison. Peter keeps talking about being great, he wants to make himself look humble, but his got to get his head out of his ass and stop trying to change up his game so much in attempt to appear innovative.

He had the budget, the man power and the time and he still developed a janky game with a weird hub world and a silly expression system. I've only ever played one Indigo Prophecy game and the hype David built for it, matched my experience when playing it. Peter made a good game out of Fable 2, but eveyrhting he said he was going to fix and create, didn't even show up in the game and if it did, it was insignificant.

So basically, Lionhead are a good development team, their at their best when it comes to charm and colour, but when all their current efforts are taken into consideration, they aren't a great developer, they're only just good. It's mainly due to the expectations that Peter builds, usually falling flat and that it takes away from the experience of the game.

Now that I've had a bit of sleep and am not in a horrible mood anymore... first I apologize for my last post >.>

Second: How much did Peter actually do with Fable III? On Fable II he was the head developer but since the second one he was promoted to basically being in charge of all MS European studio's so I'd think he had a lot less to do with Fable  III...



Sig thanks to Saber! :D

I wouldn't know, but judging by all the interviews, you'd think he was a one man development team. It's possible he had less influence though, he has been a busy man and that may be why Fable 3 was released with a few weird elements.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

Molyneux gets a lot of unfair flack from people who hate him for unrelated or unknown reasons. Keep on keepin' on Peter. You're games are great, imho, and I'm relatively interested in your opinions.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Peter's pouring his heart out for a game he loves... and we give him hate?

I just don't understand you people...


This.  The amount of hate this guy gets is mind boggling.

David Cage: "lol the wii is a toy and sucks compared to the PS3" 

Users: "He's being misquoted and he is actually right" 

 

Peter:" Ico is a great innovative game and I would love to make something like it"

Users: "someone needs to shut this guy up" "lol he sucks" "He's wrecking the only good series he has ever made and is an overrated developer"

 

You guys are both sad and funny. 


What if I shunned both of them?

double post...




              

the headline made it seem that he hates it so much that he'd kill himself if he made one like it

If Molyneux made something as good as Ico, I'd die out of sheer disbelief.

if ANYONE makes games as good as Ueda's i'd do the same.
