If Lionhead is working on another game along with Fable Legends then either Black and White 2 or a new IP would be preferable than another Fable game right after Legends.

It has been rumored for a while that their 2nd title is a new ip.  The original rumor was one was a mmo style rpg which appears to be fable and the other was a new ip if im remembering right.  Of course this information is older now.




       

Microsoft Squashes Halo Movie Rumors

Rumors have been circulating about the revival of the Halo feature film for a long time, but Microsoft is getting ahead of recent Internet rumblings. A Microsoft representative told GameSpot today, "As we've previously stated, we have no plans for a 'Halo' motion picture at this time."

Back in 2005, we learned that The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit director Peter Jackson was involved with the production of a Halo feature film. Jackson said way back then, "As a gaming fan, I'm excited to bring Halo's premise, action, and settings to the screen with all the specificity and reality today's technology can provide."

But that project was postponed in 2006, and we learned that that particular concept was scrapped entirely by 2009. Regardless, the dream lived on among Halo fans and word spread that director Steven Spielberg was going to pick up the franchise in 2010. Then District 9 and Elysium director Neill Blomkamp expressed interest in taking on the project in 2013.

Despite the big names attached to the potential film, a movie never materialized, but Halo fans did get a Halo 4 Internet video series, Forward Unto Dawn, that drew over 55 million viewers.

I hope Fable anniversary gets put on xbox one with better graphics

Phil said it makes sense to put it on XB1 so I think it will most likely =D

 

Also guys Project Spark stream has started

I wonder if that had anything to do with Fable: Anniv. getting pushed back? 

Spark had an amazing reveal.  There could be years of playable content just from the one game.

I see the Ridley Scott Halo project crashed and burned.  Damned Microsoft spoiling our fun.  Reality is overrated.



I still have an extra Project Spark Beta Key if anybody is wanting it

Agreed. Forward Unto Dawn drew 55 million unique viewers from what I've heard (that was in March I think, who knows how many more people have watched it since then, especially since it was added to Netflix). 55 million unique viewers times the average box office ticket price of $8, that comes out to $440 million at the box office. And a proper Halo movie would likely draw more viewers than Forward Unto Dawn anyway. And lets not forget sales once the movie goes to DVD and Blu-Ray. And the boost that it could bring to sales of the games and other merchandise by drawing new fans to the Halo franchise. 


I love halo( I mean look at my pic) but that 55 million number is bull crap. Forward unto dawn was like 5, 15 minute vids on YouTube. Microsoft added up all the views from each video to get that number, they spun it, which is fine everyone does it. So it was more like 10 million which IMO is still very good. I think a halo movie could easily be as big as the new Star Trek movies



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.
