£50,000 for a virtual chisel...
The world's gone mad and Molyneux is the organ grinder.

I remember being at Molyneux's demonstration of the first Black and White at E3 years ago.
He started playing the game and then suddenly stopped - excitedly explaining that his gigantic Ape creature had just picked up and thrown some shit and that had this had just "never, ever happened" - a true demonstration of just how incredible his next-gen artificial intelligence was.
Of course, every fucking animal you had picked up and threw its own shit, trees and villagers. Generally stomping around the map like some ninety-foot, brain-damaged toddler.
He's always been at the absolute forefront of bullshit oversell.
Flounce over.

....but when you're on a date with an actual, living girl & try and explain what a shit Peter Molyneux really is,
she just gives you a pitying, and-this-is-why-you're-still-a-virgin look.
Women, eh?

His work at Bullfrog was great, Lionhead got a bit too hyped.
The guy has great ideas but has a hard time always bring them into being.
But saying that, i'ld much rather a game didn't live up to the hype than yet another FPS churned out with prettier graphics.

*pays £50,000 and gets answer*
It's a MMO Populous / Minecraft hybrid creation.*
Also I would like to articulate my feelings about Peter via the medium of RAP.

Have you ever heard of "Cow Clicker"?
It was an "experiment" by a man called Ian Bogost. I believe the way it works is:
1. You can only click the cow once a day
2. It shares on Facebook "xxxx has Clicked a Cow"
3. If you want to click the cow again that day, you have to pay money.
That's it.

The best bit is...
he made it as a joke, taking the piss out of that sort of game. And it became the most commercially successful thing he had ever done.

The target audience for this dull sounding game will be macro's and boring psychotics.

A scoll saying "You just spent 50 grand on a virtual chisel!"
