What?! Do you have any links for this, because I want to laugh more.

Talk about going down hill... and then falling off a cliff :D

Meh maybe this is a good thing in a way, the series was always a pretty underwhelming for me, never lived up to expectations.Now those are safely locked in the basement.

Oh Peter... where did you go so wrong? Unless you pull out something magnificent, like NOT making it a Kinect-based rails shooter, you've lost a valuable customer.

At the very least I hope this isn't a proper entry. Hopefully there'll still be a Fable 4 that will be like we're used to seeing the franchise.

Meh, I only enjoyed the first game anyway.

Seriously, the magic system was absolutely broken in the sequels, and the inability to die made it laughably easy.

It's not really Peter's fault... almost everything you can think of is being turned into a Kinect railshooter.

Fable wont be "Dead" so long as there are still fanboys clamoring to spend their money on it.

Though I personally think Fable died after the first one, and RPG action game that just turned into an action game.

Since it's hard to walk without moving, as the Kinect would require for full-body control, the game does the walking for you. You wave your arms around and pretend to have a gun/sword/magic hand. Imagine Time Crisis or House of the Dead for the on-rails bit, basically.

I saw 'Fable: The Journey' and got briefly excited by the idea that they might be doing something new with the title, and making it better.

Good God was I wrong.

To me (ignoring the kinect hate) it looks very fun and good quality, seems a little unlikely at difficulty for the spell casting.

I'm still astonished people play rail shooters outside arcades.

Speaking of arcades, do those things still exist too?
