Well we will just have to wait till after his game is released.

But Bond where did you hear this news that Project Ego might not be the official name of the game?

It was revealed a long time ago in an interview. But I'm hoping that Big Blue Box will keep the name Project Ego.

I must say this game hasn't made any improvements in graphical terms, which isn't really a bad thing, because it looked really relly good when it first appeared, and that is all we have seen from the game, plus a few minor details about the game!

Depending on what happens at E3 with this game, I will base my decision on buying this game for my Xbox. I just hope this game won't be as big a dissapointment as B & W was. Don't get me wrong, that game was a very very good game, just not the great game I was expecting it to be.

Did you really expect it to make any graphical improvements? I mean it is one of the most graphically advanced games on the Xbox so far. As far as releasing new screen shots goes, more is being revealed about the terrain and houses if you read a little into the screen shots.

I actually never played Black & White, but I heard it was pretty good and the game did sell fairly well. Also isn't an expansion pack in the words? That has to mean at least the same was semi-successful. :D

I really don't care what this guy says. Anyone can say it's the best RPG of all time. I'll wait until I play it.

Quick question
 

Isn't this game called "Fable" now?

As to Mr. Molyneux's quote: it may very well turn out to be true, but what exactly is the greatest RPG of all time supposed to be? There really isn't an objective way to do it. Like any other game, some will love it, some will hate it. My guess is more will love this game. But I'm not expecting to play this game and think to myself "Wow, this really is the greatest of all time." It could happen. I'm just not anticipating it.

Was that sarcasm? :confused:

Really, I did explain myself in the post didn't I?

There... :D

Muhahahahahaha, you have fallen into my trap!

That was a very intelligent post Shadow_Link.

You are a sly one aren't you Bond? I will get you, very soon!

Oh, and that WAS an intelligent post wasn't it Bond? :D

Re: Re: Quick question
 

No. I actually read somewhere that Project Ego was renamed Fable. The name sort of made sense to me. But if you guys haven't heard of it...

*shrug*

Well I thik Xanny is seeing things again. We all know since he lost his job as a mod he has been smoking and drinking to get rid of his problems.

Anyhow I came across this at some other forum and wanted to see what you people thought of the play time.

I don't know about this. There are many type of gamers and some may be disappointed.

There are the type who play a game only once and if they feel cheated they will complain. Ofcourse, if they were wise they would play it more than once.


There are the perfectionist who will play a game 10-20 times to get everthing and all those blasted endings. Who would probably be happy with the short time.Makes it easier to play over.

Well those were my 2 pesos.

I'm not jealous of any exclusive Xbox gets... except when it comes to this. Project Ego (or Fable as our dillusional Xantar claims it. :D) just may turn out to be not only the greatest RPG ever made thus far, but it may just make the best game spot. I've always wanted a game like this and never thought it was possible on a console. Xbox may be able to do it. Every time I see more of this game or hear new details it makes me wanna go make money as soon as I can to buy an Xbox, even if it means selling lemonade on the corner of the block.

Now, since that was a completely pro-Xbox post and I've never made one before I'm going to add one criticizim (and correct me if I'm wrong). If the game needs something, I mean really [i]requires[i] something to make it the best ever in my eyes there needs to be online play. Yes, I know, some of you are getting sick of little online RPG kiddies raving about how cool they are, but hear me out. When you have an ambitious a project as Ego is and you're trying to get the most real feeling you can in it there needs to be real interaction between characters. That's why I feel that this would work best on a PC.

*Dodges axe swipes and rocks aimed at him by angry Xbox fans*

Okay, now wait before we start the flaming. I didn't say it couldn't be done on Xbox. I'm merely saying that is seems like it would work best on a PC instead of a console. Only time will tell if my accusations are justified. Until then, could somebody please give me a link to a movie of this game in action? Or are there none? I can't seem to find any if there are.

Thanks for your help.

This can go on forever Shadow_Link! But to end this, let me just add, what an extremely, extremely intelligent post Shadow_Link ...

*Ok, that's enough!*

Uh, Xantar ain't dellusional fellas. You guys should check out Egomaniacs to get all your info.

They originbally wanted to call it Alter Ego, but that name was already taken by a 1984 text psychology game. Two other names being bandied about were "Fable" and "Heroes".

I have to agree though, I hope they keep it Project Ego. Its so much cooler:D

BTW, in the latest Peter M interview on IGN, Peter seems to be a little obsessive about Project Ego. To sum it up he said that he will not release Project Ego untilit is the greatest game of all time. The actual interview was about B.C., and he said he only wants that to be a solid game. It looks like Peter might be taking Ego very personally.

I wouldn't take the Fall 2002 release date too literally guys.:D
