Fable 2 ultimately delivers in a great action RPG

Fable 2 is a game of choice. Will you be evil or good? Corrupt or pure? Morality plays a big role in this game and it is implemented well in general terms. Some choices have you scratching at your head trying to figure out which is the best option whereas at some points it is quite easy being the bad guy, as you do not really feel a connection with, say, the local villagers when you raise prices in a local shop.

Combat is fun and simple. Y for guns, x for melee and b for will/magic. It has a surprising amount of depth however and as you progress, you will soon be getting more experience using more lavish techniques to rid the enemy.

Co-op is fun but it is dissapointing that you cannot bring your own character into the game. It is however very simple to use although the camera can be slightly annoying.

The main quest of Fable 2 took me only around 10 hours to complete, but searching for all the silver keys, gargoyles, demon doors etc will leave you more hours to spend time in albion. However, the game is hardly challenging; you cannot die and you only lose experience points.

Another thing I admire is the way you can buy properties and rent them out, move in, adjust prices etc. Even when your 360 is turned off you will still be earning money every 5 mins and this is very helpful.

Fable 2 presents a world which you can manipulate to your liking and is definetely a game worth checking out.
