    If I HAD to decide for just one of them, it'd be deadspace. That's just a rare gem. I'm getting both though :D

    Fable 2! By a longshot, if you think otherwise you are not considering the game's fantastic complexity and gameplay.

    *ugh*  Different style games...but to appease...

    Dead Space
    Honestly, you people need to learn how to get better jobs and rent games instead of asking stupid shit on forums all the time.

    I say dead space.

    gotta love good new ip's. besides, dead space does actually have about as much replayablity as re4. which for many will be a lot. the game is just condusive to multiple playtrhoughs

    I'm sure i'll get fable 2 eventually, but I'm in no hurry. I never really liked fable 1 that much to be honest. it was just so short it was over before it could make an empression.

    I just picked up Dead Space and must admit the game is already amazazing. I have yet to play fable 2 so I dont have an opinion on that specific game. If you decide to go with Dead Space you wont regret it.

    I vote Dead Space

    I had to choose between Fable 2 or Dead Space as well, but what swayed me in favour of Fable 2 was: I'd been waiting for it and that it just looked like an improved more enjoyable version than the 1st one. Not that the first one wasn't fun, it's just there's a noticable difference between the POWAH of the 2nd game to draw you in and make you want to stay and explore and seek out every detail and action you can do in Albion.
    Wait until Dead Space comes down in price and get it then ^_^

    I fail to see the excitement for Fable 2. Isn't Fable 2 a fantasy game?  So if you like sci-fi games over fantasy games, why would you care for Fable 2 over Dead Space?   My preference is usually for sci-fi games. Also shorter games allow for more free time to do something else. Longer games, with the current DVD-based system, seem too repetitive. Once they become installable, perhaps they can come out with some very good, lengthy RPG games, like NWN 1 & 2, where it doesn't get old until after 100 hours of play.

    I would say dead space man. I just posted my review of Fable and why it was a good game, there were a couple of things in there that really annoyed me to the point that I never want to play that game again

    deadspace is great, but, its short enough to finish it as a rental. And IMO there isnt much replayability. So just rent and beat it then buy fable 2 or far cry 2.

    Dead Space is a pretty long game, if you don't have 15 hours to spend on it. I take 1 or 2 hours on a game each day, so it has taken me more than a month to get to Chapter 7. That's because of other games too. 

    I'm getting Fable 2 later, because it's a RPG and therefore, a big time commitment.

    If you want a serious/horror  game then go for  Dead Space
    If you want to just have fun and laugh then you should consider Fable II

    Fable 2 seems like it would have a much longer play time. So that's something to consider.

    Fable II simply because its open world allows for more replayability, wait for a price drop before you pick up Dead Space.

    Dead Space was fantastic, but Fable II was the most fun I had with a game in a long, long, time. I suggest getting them both, somewhere down the line, but without a doubt -- Fable II should be bought first.

    Fable 2 is a very good game, not great, but very good. I haven't played dead space but it looks good too.

    I say you will enjoy both no matter which one you get. :)

    Fable 2 was incredible, I got it first. I'll be getting Dead Space tomorrow. You really can't go wrong though I suppose as both were reviewed well. Pick up the one you are more in the mood for. If you've been playing a lot of shooters (like I am) I think you might want to switch things up and go to the vibrant world of Albion (like I did).

    Fable 2, easily.
    Dead Space is only applauded, I feel, because it's generic.  It's truly generic in every sense of the word, but it is very solid.  Generic games tend to have better reception than something that takes a risk.

    Dead Space is great gory fun, but Fable 2 is far better than it. No real idea why this thread is going on 2 months after, so this post really means nothing anyway though....
