Molyneux basing his next game on a 'single pure thought'

Molyneux basing his next game on a 'single pure thought' photo
     MYSTERY!

In an interview with MTVMultiplayer, Peter Molyneux revealed that his next game after Fable 2 would derive from a single source. The source is what he describes as a “single pure thought” that is “so simple, it’s actually far more terrifying…”

As the majority of you may already know, Peter Molyneux has been on a pretty short leash since the debacle that was the original Fable hype. He wouldn’t divulge more information on his next game, but one could assume that Molyneux is aiming for a more casual experience. The breadcrumb trails, loveable dogs, and one-button attack combos in Fable 2 would certainly evidence Molyneux’s trend as of late.

If I were to design a game on one thought I would instantly go with pie. I think about pie quite a bit, and I think the subject matter begs for a game. As for what a player would do in a pie game, I can’t speculate. That would require more than one thought. Let’s hope Mr. Molyneux was able to formulate a plan perfectly with his.

Anyone else seen the video interview on Giant Bomb with Peter Molyneux?


It's a very good interview to check out.

If he's talking about his dream to create a device, or game that lets you live out your childhood again...

I vote for Lemon based pie game. It has to have power ups like ice cream or cool whip.

I'd prefer more games based on impure thoughts.

Oh wait, that's what Japan's for isn't it?

My one thought: manatees. Best game idea ever.

I like what Lionhead have done so far - it would be a shame to see them get sucked in by the casual market, but that's where the cash is, I am afraid.

Since fable? Is internet memory so short as to forget the global raping that was black & white? I mean, at least fable was marginally fun. Black & white was the most disappointing game ever released. Since then, I've taken everything molyneux says with more salt than has the ocean.

Molyneux must do some really great drugs.

I'm betting his next game is about rush hour traffic and diarrhea.
