E3 2011: Fable Journey Story Details
Yet despite that success, there have still been no substantial announcements on what the studio has planned for Bill Willingham's comic series. If a cryptic tweet from Telltale's Twitter account is any indication, that may be about to cha
Obviously there are still more fable combat Guide|https://fablelegendary.com/: The Journey details on the way, with this E3 2011 demo focusing only on showcasing the tech of the game rather than the final product -- and with that also comes the opportunity for some of these story details to change or be altered. The general idea, we imagine, should be preserved, but things like Fable 3 save game interaction might change over t
It was the console to beat all others. Nintendo announced its new system two years before its unveiling. It was named, "Revolution" and had everybody buzzing. We now know it as the Wii-- a less than threatening name that is more suited to Nintendo's goals. "Revolution" served as a wonderful project title filled with mystery and excitement. However, according to Reggie Fils-Aime, it would not translate well under many other languages. Plus, a name like that would have probably caused an uproar from Americans stating the Japanese are out to get them again. That didn't happen...at least to my knowledge. Wii is friendlier and less menacing. Nintendo was right about the Wii's original namesake, it did cause quite the revolution in the video game industry because of its highly advanced motion sensor system.
The industry's current infatuation with motion control gaming is openly seen as a clever (or not so clever) ploy to divert the attention of the "casual" gamer from Nintendo’s very successful Wii console. It has been common knowledge for some time now that both Sony and MS are developing their own approach to motion control gaming, the Move and Kinect respectively. But to take the world's largest annual industry platform, at which many of gaming's biggest showcases have occurred, and focus on this single, controversial piece of hardware as the centerpiece has left many fans, myself included, shaking their fist in the air and wondering what the heck happe
But what stood out more to this comic book fan was the poster featuring little more than the title 'Fables' and a looming silhouette of a werewolf. So, it was assumed that Telltale would be focusing on the fairy tale graphic novel's Bigby (a.k.a.'The Big Bad Wolf); given the studio's experience with the likes of Puzzle Agent , building an adventure game around the sheriff of Fabletown made se
Frankly, any chance I can get to see the Rock Band Pro Guitar in action is fine by me. As a guitarist, I'm extremely interested to see the peripheral. Also, as a huge fan of Red Faction: Guerrilla , I can't wait to see what they do with the sequel, and get a glimpse at the insane amounts of destruction that will be possi
When Telltale Games announced that they would be bringing Fables , an adaptation of the Vertigo graphic novel series to gamers everywhere, it was hard to know what to expect. That was before The Walking Dead made the studio one of the most impressive in the realm of video game writing , not to mention undisputed masters of episodic relea
There was one new IP shown that got our attention as gamers for a brief moment, Codename: KINGDOMS , with no game-play or true promotion. This was quickly watered down for those of us at home who saw those covering the event immediately drawing comparisons between this and the God of War franchise. Eventually they revealed the Xbox 360 S (a.k.a. Slim) which did little to entice owners of functioning Xbox 360s. Another thing that worked against MS was the decision to demo Call of Duty: Black Ops , a multi-platform game for a longer period of time than most of their other showcases. Yes, there was talk of some timed exclusivity for the DLC (wouldn't be MS without some) but this too was little to parade over since this deal has already been standard with bestseller Modern Warfare 2 . All things considered, the Microsoft Press Conference was almost hard to watch. I had thought ahead of time that MS could show many strong new IPs and win E3 2010, but boy was I wr
First, we have the Natal imagined by Cirque de Soleil debut which, if you weren’t there, was not very "hardcore" and did focus on Kinect. Wireless, controller free game demos, which many believe were pre-rendered, saturated the performance. The next thing the world saw from Microsoft at the world's biggest trade event was the Microsoft Press Conference, meant to focus mainly on Xbox 360 and its exclusive lineup, or so we thought. This showing could not have been too substantial for hardcore revealed to gamers very little because most of the content was already speculated or announced by MS themselves before hand. We knew we would hear from three of the Xbox's ONLY _ exclusive secret weapons; _Fable III, Gears of War III and Halo: Reach . Therefore, their presence brought very little excitem
