Fable 2 Development

   

Draw bad cyard

Published Friday, July 11, 2008 12:08 AM by Sam

So my week has been 20 days long. You a-go tired fe see me face! Working without a day off, late, every night. The diet of Fish&Chips and Chinese or Pizza is getting to me. The work is done, sort of. Not really, but most of it is. What a march this has been!

But that's not the point.

What is the point? Oh yeah! E3, next week. A lot is going to be happening. You'll just have to wait and see what exactly, but if any of you say "this wasn't worth it" I will chase you and burn down your house. Sic.

Tomorrow I'm getting on a plane together with Peter and a couple of other people to make our way to Los Angeles and E3, showing Fable 2 and YES the game will be playable on the floor. Pretty scary but cool nonetheless.

Wow I'm tired.

Aren't we all?

I second both comments! Anyway, sleep on the pplane if possible, jetlag is not fun.  Videos, pics, or art for the community makes a great E3 present... just putting it out there... hopefully I can find some coverage... G4 will be there...

From what I've been reading today you guys have no need to be nervous about a playtest. Sounds like Fable 2's gonna bypass all our expectations.

how does a 14 year old male (or female if that will get me in) that lives right next to the conference thingy (where E3 is) get into E3? I have no money (well actually i have $60). I have no inside people. I'm pretty sneaky but i'm not really into the 'breaking the law' kind of thing. I'm VERY smart. (That doesnt help anything these days)

dont see the problem?
here it is:

HOW DO I GET IN!?

Hey Sam great work to you and the entire team...and if I could I'd fly to LA and give you and PM a big hug from all the Fable fans when you get off the plane. Wish I could go to E3, hope I can watch it on the computer while I'm at work!!!! Can't wait to see if PM tells us what secret thing he's kept up his sleeve. And can't wait to see you show off the game.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great work Sam. To show you my appreciation of the work you and the team and Peter put in, I for one will play that game and unlock everything and rule that world with an Iron Hand. Can't wait to see the HD footage and gameplay you guys put together.

Get some rest and enjoy the flight!

cant wait to see what you guys are going to have in store for us. I am allready happy enough with the latest news of stephen fry playing an NPC. I could not do anything bad to that NPC as I would see them as Stephen Fry.

A release date would be nice though.
