Portal: Peter Molyneux edition?
the vinny club \| 12:50 AM on 01.16.2008	4 comments

Cool video(with shite sound) of Peter Molyneux fom the 2005 GDC.

Not sure if Narbacular Drop had been released at this point but it's interesting to note the similarities between Valve's Portal and this demo...and also to see how far Molyneux's priorities have shifted since then...from dicking with the players perception of reality to trying to engage the player on some emotional level. I for one am glad - Oi Pete, you can keep yer oranges, I wanna play with my dog.

Thats crazily similar in idea to portal. Also when he has been describing the combat for fable 2 ages ago it sounded (and preview videos have ended up looking) very similar to the combat from assasins creed.

Perhaps better organised studios have been plundering his conferences for ideas and then making the games faster than he can.

about me

the vinny club on myspace

I am a cybernetically enhanced human being. I have a SID chip for a heart and two tape decks for eyes. And a zip stick in my pants. Aside from my modifications, I can feel and love just as you unmodifieds can. Basically I'm the same as you, except I am completely invincible and I shoot laser beams. It's pretty cool.

My favourite games include:

Bruce Lee, Nexus, Cliffhanger, Law of the West, IK+, the Great Escape, Samurai Warrior - The Battles of Usagi Yojimbo, Syndicate Wars, and Ico.
