Wait, isn't this the game with the $80,000ish DLC that lets you chisel towards the center faster? What a joke.
As a side note, anyone hear about how he can't use the name Curiosity anymore due to it sharing the name of the new NASA mars rover? Ah, too bad for Molyneux...

I-bet-there-will-be-nothing-inside....just-some-stupid-idea-he-had-to-prove-how-"curious"-people-can-be
Curiosity is still a thing?
I lost interest when he announced selling one pick for some godawful amount of money to some lucky sucker so they might have a nominal chance of finding out what was at the center of whatever.....
Hell you know whats more interesting than finding out whats at the center of the cube? counting the number of licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop, that's what!
No amount of Boohoooo NASA stole my thunder is going to make me give a shit about this, end of story.

can't trust molyneux never have never will. If the game turns out great I'll play it but until that happens I'll probably wait till it's cheap.
Playing right into his hands, pretentious shit that can't come near to anything he's said, in the news again because of the name change require, old Petey is loving it!
"As the Molyneux turns"
Good Lord, it's happened. He can longer be content with believing the world revolves around him, now he believes he IS THE WORLD.

This reminds me sooooo much of the Family Guy episode, where Peter can choose either a Boat or the Mystery Box.
Peter Griffon > Peter Molyneaux
Peter Griffon > Peter Molyneaux
As much as I would like to hate Peter Molyneux for being so over ambitious, I can't help but love the guy. The only games I enjoyed of his were Syndicate and Fable 1, but its things like this that really get to me. Curiosity excites me simply because I want to see if A) Someone pays $50,000 for that chisel, and B) How long it will take for the cube to be opened. Granted its just all so ridiculous in practice and theory, AND OF COURSE IT GOT DELAYED, but I can't wait to see it in the wild.
I set a challenge to my fellow dtoiders and its editors; I say we DON'T look in the cube and instead look away. His magic will fade away if we simply ignore him, and Camelot can return to its prior glory.
The sad thing is that if this game comes out, there will be people who buy it, and there's a distinct possibilty someone will but that supposed dlc. The fact that Molyneaux is praising it as life changing and making world news is just, blegh. I always thought he was just an ambitous and arrogantly stupid autre designer, but now he's just a tool. Maybe he means life changing in that it will show just how dumb we as a species have become.
No, nobody's going to shell out. Nobody's curiosity is that strong to pay that much or spend that much time chiseling a fucking box.
Unless the center is a cure for cancer, all your financial woes alleviated or MAYBE just a trip somewhere extremely nice, nothing justifies spending that much time chiseling -or worse yet- amplifying your chisel through ludicrously priced DLC. Molyneux has really started to lose track of what it is to be a game designer and what it is to just make an activity that's dull, boring and simply for his own metrics measurements. Those are, "how much are people willing to spend on limited use DLC?"
Hey, everyone. Pick up a heavy rock. Now move it 8 feet to your right. Pick it up again. Now 8 feet to your left. In the end I'll give you nothing and there is no end to the activity. But it's inherently better then this, as now at least you've gotten a little bit more active.

Peter Molyneux said that whatever is inside the box would make the news. So my guess is that it's either something about who the Kardashians are dating, or something that people can pretend to be offended by for political gain.
Y'know, I love Peter Molyneux. He's an exciting personality in the industry and he's been responsible for some amazing games. Sure, they're not ever as good as they were supposed to be, but there's a lot of heart in what he makes (keep in mind I avoided Fable III).
But this is a little ludicrous. Just a little bit. And I'm going to play it.

Fingers crossed you get to the centre of the cube, then Molyneux dressed as a cenobite jumps through your living room window and shouts "YOU SOLVED THE BOX, WE CAME" and throws fishhooks at you.
I honestly think this is the game. It will just keep getting "delayed" and he is seeing how long we can still be curious about a game that won't come out.
On the first day this game comes out someone will post what's inside the cube on youtube. Really, don't get worked up about thins.
Jim sterling:'well it took me two years and $50000, but I finally got to the center of this goddamn box! I sure do hope its solid snake'
Box:'box item delayed, in the meantime buy curiosity 2. Electric boogaloo.'
Jim Sterling:'RAHRHHHH I HAVE FURY'
Peter molyneux: 'what a tweest'

As a Peter Molyneux game I know it will be much more disappointing than whatever claims he will make. So if he says the game is a 10 it will be a 4 with excellent gameplay mechanics.
Some idiot forking out £50,000 for the DLC? Damn straight that'll make the news.
As for 'world changing', that can be construed in any way imaginable. For example, I lived in a world in which I never had any Snickers bars in my cupboard. I changed that world by buying some Snickers, then placing them in my cupboard.

"the game will be "life changing," and will "make world news.""
i get it now - inside the box Milo is trapped and at the mercy of thousands of virtual paedophiles. will you help to free him?
@ ration "The only thing I'm curious about is how this prick got a job."
probably something to do with him being one of the most influential and successful game developers of all time. to answer your question directly, he got a job by starting the company himself - just as he did with his previous company which was bought by microsoft in 2006.
you may not appreciate his ideas (i'm not exactly his biggest fan), but failing to give the man a little respect is downright ignorant.
kids these days *shakes head*

Frankly, who fucking cares (okay, we do but..) when all this is is some crazy experiment of "haves and have nots" as we "chip" away at a reward that only 1 person will win, and from what I can remember, pricy "DLC", just because Pete's got it in him to play a little game with our minds.
Its not even a game, its taking one block away at a time till we get a picture or some shit.. Its an expensive social experiment to prove that we're all sheep that will moronically flock to anything out of "curiosity".

You know what's in the box? Something we couldn't possibly guess because it is one of the following:
A. So glorious and magnificent that our eyes explode in unworthiness.
or
B. So stupid and/or boring we could never have guessed anyways.
or
C. The Doctor.
or
D. Wtf? Seriously wtf Molyneux?
or
E. Nothing. It was nothing, the sick twisted bastard.
I just hope it was all worth it and something good comes out of this. Otherwise Peter shall suffer an unknown wrath the likes of which I could not name for I do not know.
