"We still haven't really talked about, 'Are there any other platforms for Fable that we should be talking about now?'", he apparently said to Gamespot. In the meantime a job posting found over at Blues News asks for a programmer with skills in "converting and maintaining the network code of the Xbox 360 version of this game to the PC, and enabling the Xbox 360 version and the PC version to play together", leading us to believe we might not only be seeing Fable III arriving on the PC platform, but also allowing players from 360 and PC to play together.
Of course this is Molyneux and Lionhead, so take it as you will.

Does anyone remember the interview where he's going on about the dog and the choices you can make in fable 2?

To be fair I loved fable 2. It's doing what final fantasy for some reason can't. It gives a open world, it gives minigames (although every f*****g minigame in fable 2 was broken or random number generation s***), it gives a million sidequests. It gives an arena. It had expansions which were cheap and extended gameplay with the characters I enjoyed playing. The combat system was simple but diverse giving you experience in the way that you played (heavily melee magic meant no exp for the gun which i only used to get the bonus in combat exp).
Everyone bashed on Fable 2's co-op. But I didn't mind it. Sure, you could exploit it to run a lowbie through everything and have a high second player just seeding exp, but that wasn't fun so you didn't waste your time. Sure if the other player was a c*** you couldn't go anywhere. But for just the simple tasks of owning an arena match? That was cool. I just wish you could have vs'd each other (although that would probably be the least balanced pvp system ever). Oh and yeah, the camera was broken in co-op.
But ignoring all those little bits, playing co-op Fable 2 was not that much different from playing co-op secret of mana. Which I enjoyed :)
As for the dog? He was useless as digging was unneccessary.
I heard this time they're going on about weapons being EXP. That isn't new. It shouldn't be hearaled as new. I don't like it because I like levelling up. I levelled up 5 different characters on wow over 5 years. I finished every final fantasy and nearly 100%'d (i never got enemy skills) most of them. I grind diablo occasionally for fun. I played torchlight. But who knows, I enjoyed the sphere grid in FFX which was unconventional levelling. That was okay too. Maybe I'll find the weapons in this aren't as bad as i thought.

If however you are one who follows a game development on the internet then you have to ignore everything Peter Molyneux says to enjoy it.

I picked it up for $25 in a bargain bin, I played it through till the end very disappointed I was looking forward to a boss battle but instead just a hole bunch of story and lore.
