It’s the big Microsoft X10 show this week and our very own ColossalBlue is jumping on a plane right now to cover the event. There are lots of rumours of what is going to be shown and Fable creator Peter Molyneux is stoking the flames.

“There’s some very, very big things happening in Fable III and it’s really going to upset people,” said Molyneux, ”I’m really scared when I go out and tell people what it is [that] they’re going to get super pissed off. They really are.”

We know Fable III is going to have Natal support, perhaps he’s hinting that Natal may be required for the game? Molyneux will not stop singing the praises of the Microsoft motion control;

“The mouse was the real revolution of the PC – not the Intel processor – and who’s to say Natal [couldn't] end up creating something you and I can’t even imagine now. It forces us to approach technology in a completely different way. Before the mouse, we only had the keyboard… That one little £9.95 device [that] changed everything about computing, and things like Natal can be a bigger change.”

I wonder if Microsoft will use Peter’s sound bite for its advertising. “Natal: Bigger than a Mouse”

This week has also seen the very first picture of Natal in the wild, spotted by T3. Attached to a Gorilla-Pod (normally used to keep cameras steady) it looks rather like the Borg has assimilated Johnny 5 from Short Circuit.
