    Molyneux? Is that not the guy from ages long past who got famous with some decent games long ago and after that didn't deliver anything of quality anymore?

    Peter Molyneux is the Noel Gallagher of PC games. Between 1991 and 1994, he produced a series of great titles and now he's only good for interview quotes.

    A friend who used to work for Rare said when Microsoft came in they basically made half the employees redundant and just got them from then on to hammer out franchise games like perfect dark zero etc.

    He should start by renaming the company Ultimate Play The Game and releasing signed copies (obviously not PM's signature) of their most famous 8-bit games.
