Gamescom

Some pretty major news has come out of Gamescom in Germany over the past couple of days. Sony has finally revealed the frequently rumored, once denied PS3 Slim to the world. More importantly, it also includes a $100 price drop. Could this be what Sony needs to make the giant relevant again? The new price point should convert a number of those who were previously on the fence.

Lionhead Studios and MSG Europe Director, Peter Molyneux also dropped a couple of bombshells at the German gaming conference. Fable II will now have pay-as-you-go episodic content beginning at the end of September. More details to come later. The bigger surprise was the reveal of Fable III slated for Holiday 2010. Decision making and touch(?!?) will play major factors in your effectiveness as ruler of all things Albian. This game is sure to have Natal integration given the timing of it's release and the fact that Molyneux is Natal's de-facto poster boy.
