Tricky Molyneux hints at Fable II digital release
Fearing death at the hands of Microsoft execs, Lionhead's Peter Molyneux refuses to confirm or deny rumor that Fable II will be an Xbox 360 digital download (a la Xbox Originals), but did offer a lil' tease.
"I think it would be a great thing for this studio to work on," hinted Molyneux when asked by GamesIndustry.biz about the Fable II digital release rumor, adding "I can't say anything else on it – I would be killed to death." It wouldn't be all that surprising to see Microsoft releasing complete digital downloads of Xbox 360 titles, seeing that they've been open about their willingness to enter the digital release realm. We always knew that the Xbox Originals and (to a lesser extent) the NXE's game install programs to be test runs for digital 360 titles. We welcome Fable II or any other 360 game onto our hard drives as long as Microsoft adds a financial benefit for those choosing digital over disc. Ahem, make 'em cheaper.
