Molyneux confirms Natal support in Fable 3
by Richard Mitchell 
{ Oct 21st 2009 at 6:55PM } 
Molyneux himself hinted at the possible inclusion of Natal in Fable 3 as recently as two weeks ago, though he neglected to confirm it for fear of a quick, sniper-borne death.
So that's that then: Fable 3 will use Project Natal. Of course, we don't speak for everyone, but we can't wait to pretend to fart in front of a crowd of adoring, virtual townsfolk.

or when you have a kid he'll ask you why you spend more time with Mylo then him
SpyderTaco (PSN: Ar4chNova89) @ Oct 21st 2009 7:24PM
Mylo is no kid...
Mylo is a godless beast with no soul.

The future is bleek....first gaming was moved to homes to avoid us meeting people at arcades, then multiplayer matches were removed so we can't have a lads night in any more, then online multimatches became the only choice for multiplayer in most games, now I can't even have real friends any more, I have to make freinds with a virtual boy to take away the sorrow of loosing all my real friends :D

Yeah really. Like we didn't already know you were going to use this molyneaux. It's like him confirming he is english. DUHHHH!

I still think Black & White 3 + Natal would be SO FUCKING AWESOME.
Premature ejaculation man @ Oct 21st 2009 7:08PM
Teaching the massive critters how to do actions by showing them how to do it would be awesome.
Halo players would obviously teach their giant monkey to teabag it's tiny followers while radically retardant racist remarks.
AvA (ice~) @ Oct 21st 2009 7:08PM
Viva Pinata + Natal = awesomeness.
Premature ejaculation man @ Oct 21st 2009 7:09PM
There should be some sort of noun in there like "yelling radically retardant racist remarks". Or maybe not, that's for the voters to decide...
Ordeith @ Oct 21st 2009 7:14PM
Nuts and Bolts too, Ava!
uncle jesse @ Oct 21st 2009 7:17PM
Alliteration man
Stevetrop @ Oct 21st 2009 7:58PM
I concur captain planet. Letting little villagers feel a swift godly pimp slap would be a great motivator for them to work harder and faster.

Um... yelling isn't a noun. Looks like forgetting words is the least of your troubles. :P

Milo.
Calling it now.
The Dark Wayne [Planeteer: Power of the Batusi] @ Oct 21st 2009 7:04PM
huh? Milo is a separate game, or rather, application i guess.
Chalky @ Oct 21st 2009 10:07PM
It was a proof of concept, showing what can be done with the technology... at least that's what I got out of it.
Aurailious @ Oct 21st 2009 7:07PM
I expect that everyone who is criticizing Natal will completely change their opinion once it comes out and sees just how awesome it will be. Fable III is defiantly a good flagship title for Natal to launch off of.
I defiantly believe that Natal is not just a Wii mote or Shpere, but motion capture technology on a higher level than those other two.
Anthology @ Oct 21st 2009 7:25PM
Yeah, I don't think using a a series of incredibly broken promises and exaggeration would be a flagship title for anything.
Anthology @ Oct 21st 2009 7:28PM
Fuck, I need to get off the bottle.
Hyams @ Oct 21st 2009 7:36PM
And I expect that everyone who is loving Natal will completely change their opinion once it comes out and they see just how meh it will be.
I mean, what games have they shown for it so far? Milo (which, let's be honest, is just a collection of minigames combined with talking to a chat-bot) and a couple of 'casual' minigames.
The fact that Microsoft keep on going on about 'controller-less gaming' for 'people who are intimidated by controllers' makes me think that it's not being targeted at your average Internet-Posting Gamer.
MrKlorox @ Oct 22nd 2009 2:47AM
Only a complete moron would think Natal is about taking away the controller.
Hyams @ Oct 22nd 2009 8:13AM
Or, y'know, Microsoft, and their 'controller-less gaming' mantra.
AvA (ice~) @ Oct 21st 2009 7:07PM
I have a feeling my parents are gonna get me a psychologist when they see me talking to my TV.
Durden @ Oct 21st 2009 8:20PM
*mom cracks door to see who you are talking to*
"Why are you shaking your sword at me?"
"No mine is bigger! Look!"
"Haha! Whatever! Mine even has a slight curve in it!"
nickux @ Oct 21st 2009 7:08PM
FINALLY! Developers are giving gamers exactly what we wanted. For years I heard people clamoring for more gesture-based game controls. I remember when Fable II came out sooooo many reviews saying it would have gotten a higher score if you could flail your arms around in Albion. HOORAY!!!
CH3BURASHKA @ Oct 21st 2009 7:08PM
Breaking news was pretty much broken.
Cool story, bro.
Mr Khan @ Oct 21st 2009 7:10PM
Fairly obvious. Software development on Natal is largely Molyneux's baby, and this is the kind of game that would greatly benefit from increased player interaction (though almost definitely as a compliment to the gamepad)
johnnynumber5 @ Oct 21st 2009 8:54PM
Yeah this isn't much of a megaton or bombshell. This was expected to say the least. Molyneaux has made grandiose promises before that he couldn't keep so everyone should be a little skeptical until they actually get to try out the final product.
Premature ejaculation man @ Oct 21st 2009 7:11PM
So dancing to make people love you after you killed their husband in front of them will be done with your own awesome moves? The virtual ladies will love my disco styles.
The Dark Wayne [Planeteer: Power of the Batusi] @ Oct 21st 2009 7:26PM
finally I can love a women without fearing her being captured by bad guys and revealing my secret identity!

Still upset about Rachel?
Marius @ Oct 21st 2009 7:11PM
interesting
uncle jesse @ Oct 21st 2009 7:12PM
I don't know how it will work and I don't know if it will even work well or not, but for some reason I'm very excited for this.
uncle jesse @ Oct 21st 2009 7:13PM
I'm glad it works in bad lighting, too.
I look amazing in bad lighting!
Negativecool @ Oct 21st 2009 7:14PM
Has he yet to explain that the game mechanics will be so unique it will dwarf the second coming of christ in epicness?
guelth @ Oct 21st 2009 7:16PM
I actually look forward to this. Fable is one of my favorite franchises, so I hope Natal adds to the experience.
