I fully expect we’ll see Fable 2 come to PC 6 -8 months after it’s 360 debut. I don’t think Fable set the PC world alight, but it sold fairly successfully (I enjoyed it) and a PC port is kind of inevitable, but when your there to promote the 360 platform your sponsors hardly wanting you to be diluting the good news of it’s imminent exclusive.

FF13 for xbox360 wtf. Fable 2 not for pc, yeah i bet it’ll come eventually and with extras which will cause the 360 fanboys to winge.

FF13 for the 360? Lovely, there goes my significant – and possibly only – reason to buy a PS3.

ack – It’s a quote from the poster. I also am saying that it’s wrong (though I would go for 911000).

I still think Fable was lovely.

Molyneux is a bit of an ego though. Has made nothing in ages worth the disc it came on, and even before that was often all ideas and no execution. He’s basically irrelevant nowadays. When he makes something truly good THEN it will be news, but until then he’s just using publishers not inconsiderable funds on a hollow promise of gaming nirvana. AGAIN.

GoW2 : More of the same – fun, but overpriced. Great if you like watching NFL and thought “This would be better with guns and aliens.”

when even Valve – long time advocates of pc gaming -releases a console exclusive – its time to buy a new xbex instead of a PC upgrade. or a ps3, if you dont want another rrod

@Quatrain, just a tiny nit-pick, but 9/11 * 1000 is ~818.18

I like that version of the Mirror’s Edge tune there, lacking the semi-acoustic guitar, a lot better.

Nothing too exciting for me at this conference. Of course I’m not a fan of Xbox so. I wished there was a bigger just PC focused conference.

I believe that MS said e3 wasn’t going to be a Games For Windows event, hence the lack of info and announcements there.

Why it wasn’t is another question though. I think they see fighting Sony to be a bigger issue than promoting PC Gaming.

One thing I liked about this article (aka I Want More Of It!) was the news about what people in the crowd were saying. Give us more reaction information, with quotes!

Anyone like the Rage trailer? I can't help but compare it to Fallout 3, even though one is a RPG and the other a first person shooter. Or is Fallout 3 a first person shooter in disguise?
