MS refuses to comment on Fable 2 PC rumour

'Internal source' says it's coming out on PC February 15 2009.

Microsoft has refused to comment on reports that superb Xbox 360-exclusive RPG Fable II will be released on the PC on February 15, 2009.

Last week, German site, Gamona quoted an "internal source" as saying Fable II is coming out on the PC on February.

This morning a Microsoft UK representative issued us the predictable "we do not comment on rumours and speculation regarding our games" statement.

While the release date of February 15 can definitely be chalked up as a rumour, we reckon there's a good chance that the Lionhead RPG will make it to the PC platform, following recent comments made to us by Lionhead boss Peter Molyneux.

In early October, in an interview with VideoGamer.com, Molyneux said: "If you recall we didn't release a PC version of Fable immediately. I don't think we even announced it immediately. There's no announcement either positive or negative on a PC version just yet."

When asked if it might be the case that a PC version will turn up later, Molyneux replied: "You see you said all the maybes and mights there, I'll leave that with you! But these are the sorts of things as you can imagine I get into an enormous amount of trouble for. I have to be very careful!"
