The graphics in this game are rich and many of the missions are fun. The only reason i did not give this game a 10/10 is because of the difficulty and the main storyline. It is impossible to die in this game, and beyond that it is very sad if you actually get knocked out. The missions are fun but towards the end of the game it loses it's shine (i wont spoil the ending but its pretty bad). But the main story line isnt what makes the game so fun, its the gameplay. You can combine swordfighting, spells, and gunfighting all at once. The concept of real-estate is interesting too. You can purchase just about every building in the game, and once you do you can make millions of gold. As I already mentioned, the graphics especially considering the size of the game, are really good. The concept of getting married, having children, and then maintaining that marriage is also pretty neat. I still thought that Fable 1 was much better though because it had a much better storyline and magic system. For some reason in fable 2 they removed the mana bar and made all the spells charge-up spells, which took away from the game. I also must say that the new knothole island expansion really wasn't worth the 800 ms points. I blasted through it in like half an hour, and the village only consists of 2 houses and 3 stores to own. But despite all the downsides i listed, this game is a great sequel and is almost as good as its predecessor. Hopefully Fable 3 will be better.
