Forums - Microsoft - Fable the journey - reviews so far from this exclusive xbox360

This was the last game I was looking forward to for kinect, now there is literally nothing. It's not even worth trading in my kinect because I would only get $25 tops including all my kinect games.

Oh well, I might still give Fable The Journey a rental or cheap buy because I did enjoy the demo.

Didnt Peter M. say that the game wouldnt be on rails?? Not that im mad, i like on rails, was just curious

So MS finally fired this guy



Fable 3 sucked for the most part so I wasn't expecting anything great out of this game to begin with.

The guy went from overhype to straigh lying...maybe he had every intention of it not being on rails but realized that that wouldnt work

Also as for the Giant bomb review how can you call a game too British when it actually was made in Great Britain by a British developer. That's pretty much like calling James Bond too British even though he is a British character created by a British writer.

Perhaps Professor M was talking literally, i.e. that your character would not be travelling around on railroad tracks.

Looks like it's going to get the same Meta as that other great on rails motion control game Medieval Moves: Deadmunds Quest. I bet FtJ sells way better though.

How much did Molyneux work on the game?



kinect as we have it right now is good for those kinect sport, dance and fitness games. people who use it for that stuff seem to love it (amazon ratings for these kinect games are most of the time even better than for “real games“ lol) but as long as it does only work with gestures it just doesn't really work for “real games“

maybe it will be better with kinect 2 but as long as we only have kinect developrs should stop trying to make real games with it.



Harsh but expected.
