When a game like this comes along we can remember why we love to game!
The big reason for this is that I CARE. I care about the choices I make, I care about the characters, I care about finishing every quest in the game. This is not something that one can experience in many of the content in video games today. Not since my days of playing Final Fantasy IV have I been so involved and so invested in a world outside of my own. Maybe I am biased to Fantasy type entertainment but, this is a special game not to be missed.
If you love to be in control of your destiny then play Fable II. I promise you will not regret your time spent in Albion and you will more than likely continue to explore all of it's beauty long after the main adventure has been completed.
PS. Wear a condom!
