Though Goldeneye 64 tends to take most of the plaudits, many consider the original Perfect Dark to be the best multiplayer FPS of the N64 era . Critics seem to agree, with Joanna’s debut outing just edging out the Bond classic by a single point on Metacritic . With that in mind, when rumors of a Perfect Dark reboot began circulating back in 2018, excitement levels were fairly high among the gaming avatar immersion commun
Most fans won’t be too upset about this one considering Kingdom Hearts has one of the most dragged out and complicated storylines of all time. It would take an expert to even decipher what’s happening in regular gameplay let alone a trai
One of the best moments in the game is the surprise dark moment at the very beginning of the game. Joel loses his daughter, an event that sets him on his nihilistic path. However, the trailer takes this moment away from new players as it shows off the improved graphics for the shiny new
A man named Meredith Sock writes some books which the player can find in Fable II. His novels are detested throughout Albion, with some choice book titles including (but unfortunately not limited to): “Cold Lips,” “Norm and Aggie,” “Objection! Overruled!,” “Megafowl: The Sword is Mightier than the Hen,” and “Megafowl 2: Revenge of the H
Completing this quest rewards the Mighty Pebble Medal, which players can equip on Kabbu to grant him the Pebble Toss skill. Although it will always do 1 damage, Pebble Toss’s main purpose is to give Kabbu an attack that can target flying enemies, as Kabbu is helpless otherw
There have been a few updates over the past three and a half years, although they’ve generally been little more than confirmations that the game is still happening . According to creative director Hideki Kamiya, PlatinumGames has a lot of projects in development at the moment which is why things are taking so long. In January 2021 he suggested that a real update could be forthcoming, but the game was once again absent from
Even if it wasn’t exactly a traditional Fable game, Fable Fortune remains the best recent touchstone for the franchise. After all, it started out as Lionhead’s handiwork, and even after the studio closed, many of its developers kept working on Fable Fortune. This card game first opened its doors to early access players in the summer of 2017, and then it released fully in February 2018. That means it’s been about three years since Fable fans have seen any sign of life from the franchise, which isn’t too long, even if it’s been much longer since a normal Fable game came
If you played Fable III for the first time at a young, impressionable age and were horrified by the opening cutscene, in which an ambitious chicken leaves home to explore the city but it’s implied he’s killed by the ending, then there is good n
Releasing only a few very vague promotional pieces before dropping an 8-minute long short film, Kojima’s legend precedes him yet again. While it was necessary to give fans something to cling to, the marketing for Death Stranding reveals some key moments in a generally unstructured g
The Far Cry series has had many leaks over the years such as the game awards trailer leak. But those kinds of information breaches might be the best kind of leak. It draws in long-time fans who might have grown disillusioned with the franchise. Of course, for players who haven’t caught up on their Far Cry, it could ruin surprises in the st
To be sure, Elder Scrolls fans are disappointed to know that Starfield is coming before Elder Scrolls 6 , and fans have wanted a new game in the series for a long time. Despite that, Fable ‘s situation is still completely different from that of The Elder Scrolls. Nobody has been producing endless content for the franchise to keep fans sated in the meantime. While there’s all kinds of Elder Scrolls games to play right now, there’s really no new Fable content for fans to enjoy right now. That’s what makes the long wait ahead of Elder Scrolls 6 more bearable while simultaneously framing how important it is that the Fable reboot comes out s
While Sony’s first-party titles were never likely to show up at E3, some of the PlayStation exclusives being developed by third-party studios were in with an outside chance. With Square Enix having already announced all of its upcoming Dragon Quest titles ahead of E3, in fact, some were expecting news on either Final Fantasy XVI or Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2 at some point during the developer’s E3 presentation just to fill the v
Playground Games shouldn’t rush Fable, of course, but it also can’t afford to take forever to release the reboot. There’s big next-gen competitors on the way that the old school Fable will have to stand up to. Obsidian Entertainment, often acknowledged as a master of RPGs, has Avowed coming to Microsoft platforms down the line. Elden Ring is sure to be another competitor to Fable whenever it releases, drawing in fantasy fans who prefer darker tones. As much as the Fable IP deserves a comeback, the near future is also a difficult time for it to do so. One of the best ways it can undercut these competitors is by coming out ahead of them if possi
