I echo I_am_Lono's statement... His voice is the kind of voice that your chemestry teacher had in High School... that would put you to sleep during class.

How can I download this video to my hard drive? I don't WiFi, call me paranoid, and I would like to watch this away from my hardline.

I wonder if Molyneux's arrogance is an act or if he really, truly, can't stop himself from claiming his game will guarantee you a spot in Heaven?

Was it just me or did Molyneux sound unusually modest. Or was it the PR reps.

I like Peter because he's really modest, though you know about 90% of the things he says are lies, you just can't help but to believe and have hope for his games...

fantastic interview with the greatest genious that has ever been in the industry. If I had to chose one person on this planet to interview it would easily be Peter. Hes such a warm, kind person with this insane talent for creativity. Fable 2 IS the most anticipated title for me this year wheh it all comes down to it. Hearing Peter saying hes never been this pleased with a project before means alot in my ears. I take great pride in being the writer of the Peter Molyneux description on Giant Bomb.

Molyneux is the shit. I don't see how people can hate that man. He's full of pride, which is a good thing.

Awesome scoring an interview with Molyneux.  Brad handled like a pro and it was so relaxed and open.  Was that Molyneux's Crib?  MTV should be on that shit. Of course Molyneux is never happy with the games he makes.  He is always one step ahead of himself.  Once this dude finally makes the game he wants to make of course all our minds will be blown.  It will never happen because he seems to always want more, but still I have never been dissapointed with anything ever to come out before.  Populous will always have a special place, and Black and White I can go reinstall it and still have fun.  I think Molyneux just cuts himself short.  He thinks too much on how it could be better and wishes too much on seeing how the future of current gaming has not progressed enough to meet where his ideal visions cannot be yet accomplished, but that forward thinking creates a good creative engine that is always helping progress the needed innovation into the game world.  Luckily his development staff has been able to kep that middle ground.

Nice Interview Brad, I liked the original Fable despite its problems.

I hope Fable 2 will be good. Peter gets a lot of unfair critism!

Peter Molyneux is an interesting man. He talks about his work with a sense of pride and accomplishment, it really makes you want to play the game. At the same time though, you have to wonder whether he's being genuine, or if he's just trying to build up hype. If that's the case than he is a master of PR.

I try not to get overexcited, though in this case it is hard, because I find myself getting shot down. Like when I played Bioshock I did not enjoy it as much as I told I would.

I like Molyneux because of how genuine he is. Other PR guys seem fake, like the guy who always talks about Prince of Persia. Molly here sounds like he loves his games, and is sincere in his love for them.

Nice. That's quite a coup for the Giant Bomb, I'm sure.

Of course, you may want to thank Peter for the interview next time.
