Fable II

lias444's Fable II (Xbox 360) review

Fable 2 is all its cracked up to be

The first Fable was great, if a little disapointing, Fable 2 has been kept a bit quieter, but not from me, I've turning up every stone to find more and more information about the sequel to the best RPG on the original xbox. It's finally here, and I'm satisfied.

Fable 2 is a true sequel to Fable and improves whereever it can. The graphics are fairly sound with some incredible vistas and settings that look great. The character model for your player is not so great but you can change your appearance anyway. The story is typical Fable stuff and will satisfy most players, even if it is very short, as with the original Fable you can continue to to play after the credits. The gameplay is brilliant, a single button press for all your attacks makes combat fun and fluent. There are a lot of weapons and extra content in the game that you can expect from Fable, and its all a very enjoyable experience.

Fable 2 is a great RPG that holds high the Fable name, with intuitive controls and superb gameplay. Fable 2 is not as good as other 360 RPG's such as Mass Effect but its still a lot of fun to play and will satisfy Fable fans.

It tries (and succeeds) in creating a world which is reminiscent of classic European fairy tales, which is an interesting and diverse land to explore, different towns and...

Fable II is an extremely ambitious game. Its scope is rather enormous, and with a quick glance, Fable II looks like a grand palace of a video game. However, when you get a little closer, as with any grand construction, the cracks begin to show. The Game begins with you choosing to be either a Male or Female orphan and you are thrown straight into a brief exposition/tutorial sequence. In this, as in the Childhood sequence from the original Fable, you need to do odd jobs to get some gold. The sta...
