FABLE.....

He he, I thought i'd reply considering i worked on Fable and Fable The Lost Chapters (Currently in development) and i've now been at 2 recording sessions with Hugo. In fact the last one was just on Tuesday.
Very nice chap, Hugo!

( I was a big fan of Knightmare when i was a kid, but i didn't talk to him about it, no idea if he is one of those people who regrets doing stuff like that?)

No filming, just sound recording, basically had a decent set of new lines for his character (and as a narrator) for the uodated version of Fable, so we got him in to pick up some lines.
He told us a funny story about doing a voiceover for 'Puc' moped's recently where the guy wanted him to pronounce them Puck rather than Poose which is the correct pronunctiation. When the radio advert went out, they got loads of complaints from people thinking he was saying something similar to Puc...
Anyways, he's a nice guy.

So you worked on Fable? Can you explain why PC users are getting the Lost chapters with all the quests and the dragon and so on, but us xbox users arent?
-
Sure...
To port it over to the PC, we need coders. That means nothing for the artists and scripters (like me) to do. So, while the coders ported, we all put in new content. This is new stuff, not old stuff that didn't make it in the xbox version (The dragon is a completely new dragon for example).
MS decides what versions appear on what platforms, so that isn't under our control, and anyway the Xbox got Fable before the PC, so i guess they are just redressing the balance a bit?

O.K., thanks.

I just recently discovered that two other Knightmare actors had cameos in the Hitchhiker's Guide T.V. series. In the same episode, no less. Ten points to the first person to name both actors.

If T.V.Tome.com is telling the truth, it was Michael Cule and Rayner Burton.

Lots of Fable clips on YouTube now (including this quote as mentioned by Suicidal_Steve). Here is the intro narrated by Hugo, and here is a very violent clip in which his character meets a rather nasty end!
You can also listen to his opening narrations from Magic Carpet 2: The Netherworlds (1995) and Black & White (2001).

LOL! I love how he's ranting about high powers he possesses and then he gets slaughtered!

WARNING TEAM.... Life Force Energy Critical!
When I interviewed Hugo a couple of weeks ago he mentioned that he does a vast amount of voiceover work nowadays, so its good to hear some of them.
