Now THIS is a good time!
It's easy to pick up and play and the freedom of play style is outstanding. If you're a magic user, a gun slinger or just the hack and slash machine like me, Fable 2 has it if you want it. One of the best games I've played this year. The world of Albion is easy to navigate and the interactions with NPC's is great, weather you want to have "a good time" or have a good time killing them, it's all up to you. There is even a set of missions to play AFTER you've finished the main story of the game. Fable also allows you to start a family and run a business or just buy up all the realestate, personally, I own a gypsy camp. Good, bad or good at being bad or bad at being good, it doesn't matter: GET THIS GAME!
