Fable 2 Development

   

PAX Day Deux (two)

Published Saturday, August 30, 2008 3:01 PM by Sam

Yesterday was our first day at the Penny Arcade Expo and what a day it's been! Probably hundreds of people got their hands on Fable II, mainly playing the combat demo that we also showed at E3 and Leipzig, almost always in co-op: playing and fighting together.

I took some really cool pictures (one of a two year old boy playing the game, don't worry his mum was with him at all times and we didn't do any combat!) but sadly enough Windows Vista decided that my very old-skool USB compactflash reader shouldn't work. I'll try and sort that out but it might have to wait until after the show.

Today is another day - imagine hordes of gamers (and some serious weirdos as well if you ask me, I mean who dresses in hot pants and walks around with a ferret?) - and it's going to be the longest day yet. Woody is still sleeping like a baby (he's not answering his walkie-talkie) and I'm getting hyper on coffee again! Wooohoooo!!!!!

Just got back from PAX, and I must say the game looks beautiful. I was actually playing with Sam for about 15 minutes, which made me smile inside, the game looks beautiful, love how the combat flows, great job Lionhead. I'm going back tomorrow just for Fable II.
