Fable 2 is set in the fantasy world of Albion, much like it predessor. From yhe start you take the role of a Male or Female child and even the choices you make at this point in the game can effect the future. Fable 2 has taken both Hardcore Fable Players in mind while making the control easy enough for a newcomer. Though I highly suggest you play Fable The Lost Chapters to avoid confusion on first game references. The game is definately longer then the first and has the addition of numerous side quests, where in the first on you only had a couple. Saying this game is short is the same as saying Oblivion is short. This is a game you need to take your time and not just run through the story. There are several huge cons to this game that prevent it from being a 10. There are alot of glitches in this game, Co-op not only lags but even over live you don't have seperate cameras, the biggest con of the entire of game and a huge spoiler(You may want to choose to stop reading, but I think you should know this before buying the game.), the ending epicly fails, and I do mean epically fails. Most of the people I know trade the game in after beating it. Here's what happens, the game builds up alot of excitement and up until the ending the game is epic. The first disapointment your going to run into is Thresa tells you that you are going to summon the Ultimate Weapon to combat Lucian. Turns out its a music box(A serious wtf moment), so don't get over excited about that thinking the Sword of Aeons is making a return. The next and biggest disapointment is the fight with Lucian himself. You walk in use the music box and shot him once. Infact you don't even have to shot him Reaver will shot him if you don't. It's exactly as long as it sounds if not shorter. I could see realism if you didn't fight your way through hordes of his minions who you could pound away on 10 times with a weapon and not kill them, just to have him die in one shot. If you could have killed him in one hit all along, the game shoulda ended in the spire by simply walking up and punching him, instead of dragging it out and you having to find the 3 heroes to beat him. Also Hammer The Hero of Strength is an Epic fail, asking why I didn't choose the money. I wanted my Dog back thats why i didn't choose the money.
Fable II is a game about choices. In its short but eventful journey that is set in the fantasy landscape of Albion, one plays the life of 'Little Sparrow', a muted hero who throughout the game, would make decisions that ... Read Full Review
