Fable III Has John Cleese as Your Butler in Albion - Plus New Images

Fable III If you haven't heard yet, Peter Molyneux was spilling his guts about Fable III at GDC in San Francisco this week and the info coming out of his was the usual big plan, future of gaming type stuff you'd expect to hear if you know anything about him.

He did manage to keep on topic about Fable III at some point though and revealed that you'll get a butler this time around. The voice actor they've chosen leads me to believe the butler is going to be snarky though rather than helpful - John Cleese. If you're a Monty Python fan or just love A Fish Called Wanda then this is great news. If you're not then you'll likely see this as just an annoying butler with a British accent.

I've also got six new screenshots for you so this post wasn't a complete waste of your time.

Activision Want to Cure Mapathy with MW2 Map Pack DLC

MW2 Mapathy Activision announced the next MW2 map pack with their snarky Mapathy site. The site features an attractive woman looking a bit sad. No it's not that time of the month, nor did her kitten just die or is she bummed about the lack of dedicated PC servers. She is sad because she is tired of playing the same MW2 maps over and over. Activision says they have the cure... for Xbox 360 gamers that is. Xbox 360 exclusive on this one but I believe it's a "time exclusive" meaning you'll get this on PS3 and maybe PC at a later date.

Activision and IW provided nothing more than a date of March 30th. No number of maps, no list of maps, no screenshots. Just. A. Date. Of course with GDC going on right now in San Fran it's likely we'll get more info on this soon and there was also the leak last week that's on Youtube showing at least five maps - Crash, Overgrown, Complex, Compact and Storm. This is all unofficial but Activision keeps getting the video taken down so that might mean something...

Blur Beta Looking for Xbox 360 Drivers

Blur racing game beta Activision's Blur racing game has arisen from the ashes of last year's aborted launch and now is seeking input from Xbox 360 gamers with a new beta. You remember Blur right? It's the racing game that's totally different... because it includes built-in social networking. You can sent tweets in-game which is kind of neat but I'm not sure that's enough to help this game stand out from all other racers out there.

If you're lucky, you might still access to the beta through Fileplanet which is proving to be a great source for betas lately.

Lionhead Drops More Fable III Screenshots

Fable III Microsoft and Lionhead just dropped off two more screenshots from the upcoming Fable III.

Yeah, I know two really isn't all that many but we hadn't had any before the first set appeared about 2 weeks ago (including the image at the right) some progress is being made.

Maybe one day we'll get a release date that's a bit more accurate than Holiday 2010 but I doubt that's coming soon.
