In an interview with Gamreactor, Peter Molyneux let fans know that some may be “pissed off” when they find out major details about Fable III when it makes it’s big reveal at Microsoft’s x10 event in San Francisco on February 11.

“We’re making some announcements about Fable III and there’s some… Wow, there’s some very, very big things happening in Fable. Bigger than you think. And it’s going to really upset people,” Molyneux told Gamereactor. . . . I’m really scared when I go out and tell people what it is they’re going to get super pissed off, they really are. But it’s the right thing to do man, I’m sure it’s the right thing to do.”

What we know so far about Fable III is that it takes places during the industrial revolution in Albion. Fable III is going steampunk.

Whoops! Ya got me! I slipped up! Please don't tell Iwata.

As the recipient of a “Special Achievement Prize” during a symposium at the 13th Annual Japan Media Arts Festival on Saturday, Shigeru “loose lips” Miyamoto had time to spill two tidbits of information while up on stage. Not only has Miyamoto confirmed that Nintendo is working on some new hardware, but he mentioned that he is hard at work on a Wii MotionPlus game other than the upcoming Zelda title.

Let’s face it, the fact that Nintendo is working on some new hardware doesn’t require a crystal ball, or even a fortune cookie, to figure out. Nintendo has likely been working on hardware to replace both the Wii and DS since their respective launches (see: DS Lite, DSi, DSi XL). But do the amount of rumors building up as of late point to an imminent hardware announcement? That was definitely the case for that thing that Apple is making.

While EA would like us to focus on its third quarter fiscal year 2010 results and that FIFA 2010 has sold over 9.7 million copies since launch, our attention can’t help but gravitate to it’s planned 2011 release schedule.

A new Sims, Spore, Epic Games shooter, Dragon Age and Dead Space 2 are scheduled for a release by the end of March 2011. We haven’t even been through two whole months of 2010 and we’ve already been given a handful of things to look forward to next year.

Moments ago EA confirmed in an earnings call that the revamped Medal of Honor title will be hitting store shelves by the end of September 2010. While we still have little information on the new Medal of Honor, you can be sure EA is putting as much muscle as it can behind it in order to compete with the Call of Duty franchise.

The back of the Xbox 360 version of the Final Fantasy XII case has revealed that the RPG will in fact have downloadable content. According to the box the game will have “game content download” which is standard labeling for games with DLC.

Seeing as the Xbox 360 looks like it will have DLC, the PlayStation 3 is bound to have it as well. But will we hear about DLC soon from GDC or at E3 in the summer?

What should be in the DLC? Let us know in the comments!

Before I start of my impressions I’d like to say that I went into Heavy Rain very skeptically. I’ve been a long time “hater” of games that feel the need to include Quick Time Events (QTE); press the right buttons quickly or fail.  So going into this game, which I have called one glorified QTE, I was expecting nothing decent.

I am glad to say that I came out surprised and happy. Heavy Rain appears to be good! Big surprise there. Now lets get down to the nitty gritty.

Good news for all today as Sony have announced that ModNation is going Portable!

Yes indeed that’s right PSP owners. You will be able to play the PSP version of the game which actually gives you e same creative tools to make your kart or tracks even while you are on the bus, down town or just at your grandparents house. You will be able to upload, download, remix and race creations by the PSP ModNation community which means that, like its PS3 counterpart, content will never get old.

I’m really excited about ModNation on the PSP, just like on the console, because it’s looking like it’s going to be pretty fun and have plenty of replayability. The game will be aunching alongside the PS3 version of the game later this year.

See the trailer and some pictures after the jump!
