Fable

And, and s- so far from everything we've seen, like, you played it and, like, my optimism has been increasing.

So I'm, I'm really, really excited for this 'cause man, if we go Fable in February and if that is awesome, and then this comes out in early April, like I'll have probably just wrapped up Fable, 'cause Fable's gonna be-

Very long

... probably a pretty big game.

Like, it...

Man, if I can go Fable into, into, uh-

It's Exodus

...

All the achievements from Steam, despite the fact it shouldn't be able to.

The newly added games include but is not limited to Kingdom Hearts IV, Persona 6, Persona 4 Revival, Final Fantasy Resonance, Fable, Gears of War: E-Day, Mega Man: Dual Override, Silent Hill: Townfall, Strangers in Heaven, Tomb Raider, Legacy of Atlantis, Star Wars: Galactic Racing, Crazy Taxi: World Tour, Castlevania: Belmont's Curse, Clutch Metro 2039, and Pyroc Origins.

While some of the achievements lists are still work in progress, um, a few more certainly aren't.

Uh, the Kingdom Hearts IV list, we won't read specifically what it reveals, but my God, Chris, there's big spoilers-

... of course, none of our Switch 2s have OLED screens.

But yeah, i- it, it might be, it might be Metroid of the, of those early non, [laughs] non-Xbox, non-Fable games for me.

Nice.

I mean, a- again, so many of these games are getting cross-platform releases.

And then also I want to say in Ocarina of Time, in the remake, when Link got into Pyro Castle Town Market, I think it looks so good.

I was actually sort of sat there like, this looks like the walkthrough we saw the other day for Fable.

Yeah.

Except it's running

You know what? I will actually go a little further.

I haven't actually had a chance.

It's one of the things I'm going to try and do this afternoon is write about Fable.

But I actually think graphically this looks better than

Mm

... uh, announced the Astra model, which is kind of in competition with Fable.

So you're saying that it was like the talk of the game industry.

What are you hearing about this being one of the saviors? [laughs]

But if you crash into a tree, you don't get that maybe hyper-realistic, like how would the front of the car crunch? So it's like, do you need to create...

Is the future... about creating some kind of virtual environment that takes into account gradually all these different complex variables and occurrences that happen in real life and putting it is there going to be one day one big life simulator that is just like to the point like maybe that's where we have to get to like like i don't want to go on a tangent but fable six if fable six comes out right i saw the crazy stuff people were building a fable five I wonder if with Fable 6, we're going to need to build like these high detail, high physics engines with like really realistic and kind of almost simulated dynamics and effects.

And I'm at a loss of words for explaining it, but is that what we need? Because you're not going to be able to come up with like a really decent understanding of how to drive just through GTA.

You need really realistic scenarios from what I understand.

We are finally back in a place where at least it's games that speak to me.

I can't talk about other people, but if you're telling me we're getting a Fable, you're talking about we're getting a horror game from Kojima, you're talking about now we're getting an Espionage game from Kojima, we're getting, you know, again, the list goes on.

Like, when it comes to, like, not things that are, like... potentially good like a clockwork or no no we're talking about the big hitters of things that are big ips that we care about and people that we we idolize xbox has them now like outside of naughty dog and i know i'm on the sorry real quick outside naughty dog and i know i'm not i don't like space so i'm not that interested in intergalactic and intergalactic but outside of naughty dog i'm not jealous of what sony have anymore Once upon a time, I was.

Ghost of Tsushima, I think, is a great genre.

I'm just saying it's one of multiple things that if they do it right, they can win that.

I was going to bring it up earlier, but I think one of the things that was mentioned right at the beginning when Asha took over was obviously her switching to focusing on those core pillars of Xbox.

You know, your Halo, your Fable, your Gears.

And I'm sure there's another one that's just completely gone out of my mind.

We shall see.

Xbox, they've said that Fable's main quest takes 15 to 20 hours to complete.

There's also around 15 to 20 hours to side quest.

I have to say, for games that are coming out next year, we don't know Judas' release date yet.
