Why demo a product if it doesn't accurately represent it's self? As far as I'm concerned he's trying to cover his ass for the bad feedback it has gotten.
I'm sure it will be better Molyneux, cause you've never lied or had broken promises before. I trust him 100%.
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Naughty Dog only finished the Uncharted 3 demo on the morning of Sony's press conference, and that was incredible...and not on rails.
@Epic-KxDtoid,
several dozens of journalists who played the game(unlike Jim Sterling who not only didn't play The Journey, he somehow made it his mission to bash Kinect and everything Kinect-related) behind closed doors signed a "The Journey is NOT on-rails" petition as proof.

I thought his mission was to bash Sonic?
Or Sony?
Or MS?
Or Yeland Yee?
Or PC?
Or Boners?
Jim...what exactly do you 'bash'? Crash Bash?

You know, when they first announced The Journey, I was disappointed. Not because it was on rails, not because it didn't look amazing, but because it seemed so... pedestrian in comparison to the way Molyneux over sells things. I felt like I wouldn't get to hear him spout stuff about ridiculous features that either get cut or never fully realized.
Then he said it wasn't on rails, and proved it by writing it on a board. I can't put into words how overjoyed I am now that I get to watch him enthusiastically build expectations once again.

For the love of god, when will Peter Molyneux realise that to retain whatever shred of dignity and self respect he has he must deliver a good product and stop all the talking big and boasting. I agree with Novatide, why even bother bringing a demo to E3 if can't represent itself well.
Just because its on rails doesn't mean it can't be fun. Look at child of eden or sin and punishment 2 as examples. However I havnt liked any of peters games this generation so my hopes aren't high.
The Molyneux Cycle is getting so bad he does it with demos now. This demo was crap I promise the next one will be better!
I'm sure they put significantly less effort into developing kinect games than ACTUAL games. I wouldn't be surprised if 4 months ends up being half of its total development time.
I don't see what's the deal. He makes enjoyable games. Fable III was a letdown because his previous stuff was so high quality. Quit your bitching, folks.
@MisterMollusk
It's not that his games aren't fun, because they are. What it is for me at least is he always, ALWAYS promises more than he can deliver. He's a PR nightmare, and it's incredibly enjoyable to watch for that reason.

The real story here is how he's streamlined the Fable dev cycle. Fable the Journey hasn't even released yet and he's already bashing the demo and promising the release (or next demo or whatever) will be millions of times better and so much closer to his original vision. If he keeps innovating at this rate, he'll eventually reach a singularity, in which everything he makes is at all times both utter shit/a colossal dissapointment and an incredible, nigh revolutionary gaming experience that does anything and everything a dev team could possibly hope for and more.
Fable 1 was, imho, his best game. It had a very intuitive and enjoyable magic system that was completely thrashed come Fable 2. Every Fable since has gotten steadily worse... I hope he has enough self-awareness in him to STFU and just focus on making a good game.
@sofik88 and anyone asking: Nobody has played it. Some journalists were shown another live demonstration behind closed doors, but the signatures you're talking about were just tally marks made on a whiteboard.

I love Peter Molyneux. He might be a snake oil salesman, but I still enjoy his games. (except for Journeys, don't think im going to buy this one.)
I love Peter's vision, I love his idea's, I love his games, I just wish he would shut his trap once in a while. People now remember him more for his wild promises than his entire gaming legacy.
I can't help but smile at those who think that Fable is his entire legacy. Sometimes people forget that Peter spawned an entire genre.
So keep on trucking Peter, I love your Fable games, and though there is always something I want fixed, or changed in each game, Fable is fun and unique enough to me to keep grabbing them every time.

1. I want Bullfrog back.
2. Lionhead has been garbage ever since Microsoft got involved. Black & White was great (if not what Molyneux hyped it as, as always), The Movies was fun, but now MS is in there and it's "Fable Fable Fable Fable Fable Fable". Dear Pete, if you want to make great games again, start a new company without the corporate bullheads meddling with it.

I wonder if he hypes the size of his penis as much as he does his games.
No, seriously ma'am. I think it would be naive to not consider this penis the most groundbreaking, revolutionary penis on Earth. We've hired talent to make sure it's been my dream, no, my vision, to bring this penis in all of its interactivity to your home.
