The "big Microsoft first-party title" that is 97% sure to be canceled? It's not Fable 2. Similar to the responses that Remedy and Rare provided on the non-canceled status of Alan Wake and Banjo Threeie, a Lionhead programmer and the team's community manager have assuaged fan fears that the Molyneux-led role-playing game has been shuttered. "No, we are not cancelled," wrote a Lionhead staffer on the official community forums.

Another responded the cancellation was "all based on pure speculation, a bit of gossip at the end of a podcast" and that the game was "in full swing." Who wants to be next with the outright denial?
