X360 - Fable 2

Just a headsup for anyone thats interested, Fable 2 has been anounced for quite some time now, with a CG trailer released at E3(?) last year. Apparently, the game will offer a good bit of temporal-based Xbox Live support, and a REVOLUTIONARY new feature that will BLOW YOUR SOCKS OFF also takes precedence - love. Anyway, here's an interview with Peter Molyneux talking about PET DOGS of all things. There's also a sneak peek at the first ever gameplay footage, if you can root about in there somewhere. I can't see it just now because our work PCs aren't allowed to be used for streaming videos anymore :( prioritisation of company resources or some other kind of inconvenience that gets in the way of my needy materialistic crap.

Here's an IGN link to the same

Actually, I've seen love done successfully once before, where it wasn't just sex or randomly forced: Fahrenheit (aka Indigo Prophecy). However, I'd certainly agree that it is an aspect of gaming that is usually done badly, missed entirely or lost in puerile fantasy. Films have successfully captured the emotion of love in all its various forms and I think that, as an interactive medium, games should also strive to offer this same emotive content. Glad Mr Molyneux is looking in this direction. Concerned that it'll be sex dressed up, or some politically correct "marriage = love" formula.

Have to wait and see...
