Wow now that's what I call games journalism
I bet Peter will be pissed with Eurogamer.

The sad part of it is that a potential winner could think that this would be everything he/she needs for the rest of his/hers life and just sit and wait.
"They wouldn't lie to me, wouldn't they?"
I do hope that kid has some other perspective's and that he didn't just sit and wait to become god.

Y'know, it's pretty telling that the most professional person in this entire situation is the kid who won the contest.
Well, there's this, there's 22cans unable to deliver on all their Kickstarter promises (including a Linux version), and there was Curiosity selling DLC to get to the centre faster, when it later transpired there were infinite layers until the powers that be decided the experiment had gone on long enough and it was time to flip a switch and create an end point. I once had a conversation about this with someone from 22cans on Eurogamer - I think his name was Sam - and when I raised this point he didn't respond further.
They just strike me as slimy and dishonest, and Molyneux overpromises and underdelivers so much that he's a goddamn joke.
This kind of behavior is becoming somewhat pathological in nature, and it's kind of troubling, if you ask me.
... People bought Curiosity DLC?
Im convinced this guy has some legal obligation to fill this somehow.
I cant just say "Respond to this ad and win 1 million dollars" and not give any money out. There are laws in place to prevent that.
Curiosity had no DLC. Just in app purchases. That I'm sure people did buy.... People bought Curiosity DLC?
Btw, it's going to be another mobile gameHis new game, The Trial, will be an experience never seen before"...will 'build on feelings and emotions untapped so far.
If you pair actually read the (very good!) piece in full, they get comment from Peter, who is mad apologetic over the whole thing but still won't commit to promising multiplayer will happen, and they have details on what the kid is doing - he's studying hard, he has ambitions, he's annoyed but at the same time doesn't really give a shit.

No, I don't think so. Unless he signed a paper contract, I am not sure they legally owe him anything.

He truly is a modern day snake oil salesman.There are four threads on this on the front page
Holy shit people really hate Molyneux huh?
A means of digging faster on the idea of getting to the 'centre' faster was available to buy, yeah. And considering there was no 'centre' until 22cans decided to end the project just seems like a con. Selling something on the idea it has an effect, when in fact it has none.
But can you really blame Molyneux? He's already working on another mind-blowing never-before-seen experience! Those take time. Who has time to fulfill promises when you're exploring new emotions?
I did read it, before I posted it and my point stands. Yes, they reached out to him for comment but this is a very damning article and will severely damage his reputation. Why do you think he won't be pissed off that they went to print with it?
