Peter Molyneux talked extensively to SPOnG about Fable 2, The Movies’ (non-) success, moving to Microsoft and even the new generation of consoles. There’s one quote that stands out in importance:

And you can’t say anything about the other project you’re working on?

Only that it’s going to be the most amazing game ever (laughs).

Presumably it’s also for the Xbox 360?

I can’t say that, either. But I can say that it has a very different subject matter. If you think of Lionhead’s strengths - simulation with other stuff - then this is what this game is. How can you get more game play out of an environment through simulation? I can tell you the date when I got the idea for the game. It was last year - I think it was September 23. If you look in the news, there was an event that went on in the world that gave me the idea for the game.

23rd of September ‘05 - nothing major we could find happened then. It’s anyone’s guess right now.
