In what way does it look a lot better than you expected? :|  It's a cinematic trailer with no gameplay whatsoever... "
Because in one of the other cinematic trailers the game looked like shit, this looks much better.

Why that chef at the end would want to shoot the poor chicken at the end i'll never know, he was already burnt! He would have no use for the chicken.

The Industrial Revolution is a glaring episode of man's cruelty to man in the name of unbridled greed. If done right, Fable 3 could use this period to brilliant effect. 
 
For Microsoft and Lionhead to have a triple-A opening cinematic star a chicken also takes some gravitas.

Even though Fable 2 was pretty bad, I'll still give Fable 3 a shot.

It adds dark humor and atmosphere, which is part of the reason why Fable and Fable II were so beloved. I don't understand why you would want a cinematic trailer for Fable III to be like a trailer for a first person shooter.

When is Liondhead going to realize their games aren't funny.  The overarcing theme of chicken and fart humour got a little tired about 5 minutes into Fable I.

I like this cutscene it contains good symbolism. Still despite this it has not convinced me to shell out for the next Fable game.

Man that chook was doomed right from the start. I was a little saddened at the end but then I remember I love roast chicken.

I hope this means we can shoot chickens in Fable III. My attempts to do so in Fable II were consistently thwarted.

Gotta say, that was the first time I've ever felt emotionally attached to a chicken.

I liked the cinematic. It's like the beginning of lots of movies where they do a neat scene with something irrelevant to the actual plot to ease the audience into the setting and mood of the movie. The bug in "Men in Black" and the feather in "Forrest Gump" come to mind.

Great trailer, but I have a suspicion this is actually the opening of the game, or something very close to it.

This video did nothing to pique my interest in this game. If anything, it's just further off my radar now.

Really liking this trailer. It's convinced me that leaving a medieval RPG is a good idea and that the "industrial revolution" setting could work really nicely.

Well done, I must say. Still waiting for the first Fable game to hook me, though. Maybe 3 will be the one.
