I thought all the posing stuff was hilarious...its a Fable trademark really. Who doesn't enjoy farting in public?

Well this game pretty much sucks. Its exactly the first, actually the first felt like it had better focus on action. Such basic everything. Basic combat, basic exploration, basic social interaction. The "dungeons" are boring linear hallways. Have not seen anything that resembles a puzzle. The setting is great. I like leveling up and general character building aspects. The game has its charming moments. We will see how the next few hours play, that will determine if I take my time or plow through it. BTW I already have two wives and a kid.

You are a hard man to please these days.

I gave Fable 2 a 9.0

You hate fantasy adventures and Horror games unless they are called Zelda or Resident Evil. haha

I am early on so my opinion might change though I doubt it cause I dont think all the gameplay mechanics will magically change halfway through. I want to know why a 9? Do you have an old review I can look up?

I believe I gave the first game an 8. That was nice the for the first time around but do it again and with no real improvements I can't go for it.

BTW my Sleeping Dogs review is up, I loved that game.

Ha, granted I played it when it 1st came out which was awhile ago, but yeah I loved it. I remember talking to people about the game and everyone thought it was what the 1st game was supposed to be.

No review Vader...my review is in my head. I just really enjoyed the adventure, the atmosphere, the pace of the game...really all of it. I don't remember much I didn't like.

Geez Fable 2 averaged an 88% on Gamerankings....I didn't think it was that high. So I'm only slightly above the average for this one.

Game of Thrones wasn't a bad game, just a boring one. The story was excellent and a GoT fan will love it. The action was just ridiculously bland (except for the dog parts - those were kind of cool). Therefore it gets my vote.

So in Fable 2 do I seriously just have to run around making stupid poses to make everyone loves me. I spent 30 seconds in front of some woman acting like an idiot and she wanted to marry me on the spot. LOL

I am very early in and I like what I have seen of the combat and the world but all this social status stuff seems horribly done.

That sounds perfectly realistic to me.

Seriously though, that sounds like such a direct representation of reality in video game format that by Vader's definition it shouldn't count as a videogame Nyaa

Your avatar is creeping me out. Nyaa

Look the game is not horrible, not bad either. It;s just so simple in all the areas where it needs have depth and depth in all the areas it should be simple.

GG would have a blast playing Fable 2. Not complicated, easy to follow through, it has nice music. Good romp until that point where...you'll see.

Fable 2 has gone from suck to blow.

I think that means its better now which it is. Its still the same game as Fable 1 just a bit larger world with a few more things to do. A by the book sequel.

I think I may have played the first two hours of this game but I might be confusing it with the first. I need to check my save files.

I was enjoying Fable 2 a bit more, then I reached the end and the game took a shit on my face. WTF was that?! Haven't you heard of something called a final boss? Shouldnt there be some build up to a great final moment. I am dumbfounded at the choices made at the end of this game, shows a complete lack of understanding of what makes a compelling gameplay experience.

Playing some of these 360 exclusives now have totally validated my choice to go with PS3 and Wii this gen, the gulf of quality between the MS exclusives and what Sony and Nintendo makes is gigantic.

You guys are picking the games for me. Fight for votes, sell your body.
