And then there was Skyrim . While we don’t know if for sure Elder Scrolls: Skyrim will make an appearance during a press conference, one would assume that given Bethesda’s previous success with launching Oblivion on the Xbox 360 console first, that Skyrim would be touted as more connected with Micros
Whatever happened to Fable ? Despite being one of the highest profile, exclusive franchises on the Xbox, after the release of Fable 3 , Microsoft didn't seem to know what to do with the franchise. With a nearly-forgotten experiment with the Kinect, Fable: Journeys , and some Xbox Live Arcade games based on the minigames in the franchise, there hasn't been a commitment to a mainline Fable adventure game reviews|https://Adventurequestlog.com/ in nearly a decade. With the recent closure of Fable developer Lionhead Games, one of the dearly departed studios from the late-period PC market of the 90s and made up of many castoffs from Theme Hospital and Dungeon Keeper Bullfrog, and the even more recent cancellation of the multiplayer-focused Fable: Legends , there seemed to be no hope for a new installment in what was once the most exciting RPG franchise e
While the previous 3 games have been loosely open-world with linear paths and sections, the fact that we've seen Playground Games offer a vast open-world with Forza Horizon 4 points to us getting something massive for Fable. Additionally, with the focus on SSD power these days , it's likely we'll see a seamless world that's relatively free of loading scre
But it is also not unheard of for Microsoft to pull a real surprise out of nowhere during their press conference (they did so last year with the new Xbox 360 redesign ), so don't be shocked if it happens once again. While we have taken a few stabs at what that big surprise might be, we’ll know for sure on June
As 2019 comes to a close, DualShockers and our staff are reflecting on this year’s batch of games and what were their personal highlights within the last year. Unlike the official Game of the Year 2019 awards for DualShockers , there are little-to-no-rules on our individual Top 10 posts. For instance, any game — not just 2019 releases — can be conside
Thing is, Fable 4 could feasibly deliver on “the acorn promise.” While the idea of every acorn you knock off every tree growing into a new tree is maybe a bit much, farming simulators have exploded in recent years thanks to games like Stardew Valley and many RPGs now have some kind of “homestead” or base building mechanic. The idea of player housing and farming in Fable 4 isn't so far fetc
World of Warcraft is massive and full of secrets and easter eggs for fans to discover, some of which are rather creepy. One of the creepiest easter eggs in the entire game is the Children of Goldshire, who are creepy kids that stand in a pentagram formation. At 7:40 in the morning, players can find the children in the second floor of their house, where they are subjected to strange, otherworldly sounds, including threats from the evil entity C'T
While it would be great to see Albion rendered in 4k, a change of scenery from the European-inspired biomes of so many traditional fantasy RPGs would be welcome. The Coral Forest from the recent Monster Hunter: World is a terrific example of a totally new type of game environment that still feels real and plausible within the confines of the world. Given Fables storybook aesthetic, something similarly creative would be awesome to
Fifteen years later, after being integrated into basically every kind of video game, the concept of a simple morality system has gone out of style. While some games have been experimenting with a more complex system, such as The Witcher 3 's Geralt being an influential but neutral force in the world, it would be a benefit to Fable 4 to have a similarly deep and complex morality system that goes beyond angel wings and ho
Peter Molyneux has created a number of legendary titles since he began making games in the '80s, earning numerous accolades and pioneering one of the most important genres in gaming history. But his ambition has become somewhat infamous over time; he’s always reaching for creative new ways to play and experience games, but almost always misses the target in some way, shape or form. And Molyneux’s eagerness to innovate is no secret (he’s admitted it himself): he’s formed a recurring theme for anything he’s made. Peter Molyneux refuses to settle in the current environment of gaming; whether it’s good, bad or in between, the Lionhead visionary has never stayed in one place in the industry. He loves the future, but can never reach it. He hates the past, but can never embrace its strengths. Welcome to the Molyneux Paradigm.
E3 2011 is only one week away and fans are no doubt clambering for details on what to expect from their favorite developers and console manufacturers. We’ll be bringing our readers live coverage of all the high-profile E3 events and closed-door meetings — but, in the mean time, we thought we’d take a moment to summarize what we’re expecting to see at the upcoming keynote addresses — this time for Microso
