Lionhead boss Peter Molyneux has predicted that the best is still to come from Xbox 360, as developers learn to take full advantage of the system's hardware

Thanks Peter.. At least to me, the future of the 360 looked rather bleak as it is and now you had to go and Pachter all over it.

Molyneux is a hack. Why would anyone believe what he's saying?

I hope next gen consoles will have a GPU upgrade option or something, because milking can only go so far. I mean if Crytek say they pushed the hardware, it's been pushed to the limits.

That would be the end of SW.... Kinda hard to hate us elitist hermits when you suddenly have to go all upgradey yourself innit? Consoles are already adopting some bad PC traditions (although, installing games and dowloading from steam is quite fast on the PC) without providing any of the benefits.

Console inconvenience is on the rise and PC enthusiasts now considered them inconveniences in the first place ;)

Like Pachter, anything Molyneux says is the opposite of what will happen.

There's another thread showing off the new xbox tech... and it uses lionhead footage. This is where he's coming from, but that doesn't mean other devs will start using it.

There's nothing wrong with Cliffy B, at least the guy knows what he's talking about, he's been making great games for much longer than people give him credit for. Plus he shows results, when he says Gears 3 will look great, guess what, it does. When Molyneux says Fable 3 will be great, guess what, it's the worst one yet.

Ironically people here believed him when he said Fable 3 is more of an action-adventure game. Funny how that works.

If that's the case then the PS3's full potential will be revealed around about 35 years from now.... It seems to me he's talking about Gears 3 and only Gears 3: "I can't predict h..." lets just stop you right there... Don't spoil it Molyneux .

i tend to doubt this since it's a 5 year old console.

it will dribble out a few high profile exclusives, continue to be the go to system for multiplats then die and be replaced by the next gen xbox which is fine by me.

He probably peaked at new Crysis 2 360 videos appearing on so he had to say it.If we waited for MS 1st party to deliver we would have to wait 10 more years...

I dont understand why this guy gets air time, he hasn't made a good game in 10 years. Nothing but a self promoting flop he should have left the industry years ago.

[QUOTE="i3DS"]

AncientDozer

Because, contrary to what these bandwagon dolts are saying, Molyneux has made great contributions to gaming and has been acknowledged by his peers. It's just popular to hate on the guy for grossly exaggerated slights. It's doubtful any of them truly understand why there's any hate aimed at Peter anyway. But that's the internet. They're very quick to forget achievements and to exaggerate. And to follow herds.

This. It will be a sad day when such a creative mind leaves the industry. But hey, at least we'll have the brains behind games like CoD, Battlefield, Medal of Honor, Crysis, Homefront etc to pour such quality innovation into gaming every year.
