Fable III - Why It Fails

Your surprised its getting AAA scores because someone says it fails? IMO, this is textbook of a person who hasnt played it (this statement is directed @ you). Im getting the game since I enjoyed Fable 2 so much.

I agree Fable fails, but it's still just an opinion.

If you want to take random opinions thenI have several opinions about Uncharted and MGS4 that you may be interested in. Neither of them are very positive either.

I enjoyed the fable series( Well....Fable 2) I dont know if I should pick up Fable 3.But im getting good feedback from a friend who is a huge Fable fan.

"I'm just going to come right out and say it. As far as I'm concerned, Fable III is a step backwards from Fable II and a big disappointment. Both games have huge flaws, but unlike Fable II which was able to overcome its issues, leaving an experience where the whole was greater than the sum of its parts, I think Fable III is defined by its failings because the experience doesn't come together into a unified whole nearly as well. Let's break it down. " http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/113/1130705p1.html I still am surprised this game is getting some AAA scores lol KevinButlerVP

Yeah man. IGN is gospel. Positive reviews are just blasphemy.

Whilst it's being reviewed relatively low at some places, the game has achieved a metacritic rating of 81 so far. Have you played it TC? Form your own conclusion rather than jumping in with the seemingly lower end of the review spectrum.

It's a pretty massive flop for the 360, another one. I was really expecting more.iWin1337

Massive flop? It was hyped AA IIRC and attained A (and a 7.5 at that). I wouldn't define that as massive.

Well for one of the "Tri-force" of Xbox exclusives(Multiplat now) It's been a dissapointment. Scores aside.

MS just can't get it right lately.

Crackdown 2flooped. Worse then the first in all regards (Picked it up today for £9.00)

Ninenty Nine Nights 2 was anything but extreeeeme.

Fable 3has failed to reach it's potential - Once again

I'd even argue Halo reach dissapointed (me atleast) With it's terrible maps and armor lock abuse.

What's next for Microsoft?

This thread- Why it fails

i am playing and enjoying fable 3 right now and i couldnt be more happy with my purchase:lol:

also, i just remembered you, werent you the guy who went into the reach sticky and bashed it? and werent you also the guy who made threads on how move is superior than kinect? tell me, why doesnt it surprise me your bashing a 360 exclusive again?

Thank god Kevin Butler's back we need more anti 360 threads. I'm gonna get Fable III though it looks decent.Booo-Urns

doubt you even have a 360

last time i heard it got a 7.5 in gamespot, unless it got 5-6, it did not "flopped massively"

I definately did not do very well, and I agree it failed to reach it's potential. I simply felt "massive flop" was an overexagerration.

I love Halo Reach, but definately agree with regards to the maps. I hope the new map pack actually has good maps in it.

Well the truth is the real hype was AAA, anyone hyping Fable would tell you that, AA hype was just to play it safe in the whole SW metagame. I know because I was hyping it AAA. iWin1337

Erm, wrong. In SW the hype was AA. SW hype determines if a game flops or not.

Don't be so narrow minded, just because I don't like MS that doesn't mean I don't own their console, infact I used to post here as a lem. Their new strategy of exclusive dlc, Kinect etc has lost my support so I think I'm entitled to say what I want about them.

Honestly tell me what do I have to achieve from lying?, I'm open about my hatred towards them.

I think you need to read my post again.iWin1337

I read and understand it. The hype was AA, and your theory as to it's AAA hype is flimsy at best, and impossible to prove at worst. Honestly, I presume you go to, or have been to school, so you should know that baseless claims will often get you 0 marks (no references or citations), or will in fact have marks deducted :?

There's no way to determine they were banned. Multiple accounts are allowable under the ToU.

its happened before, i remember a member here being banned due to someone tracing their IP and linking it with a banned account, i forgot the member's name, but it did happen

Except that, as a whole, Fable III is a far more cohesive, fun, and memorable game than Fable II was. I'll never understand why someone would take a paid reviewer's opinion as fact.

Sorry. I meant for us to determine. I should have specified :P

I've heard IP tracking being spoken of, but wasn't sure if they could actually use it.

If someone has mutltiple accounts, has done nothing to hide their IP address, and one account is banned, they will all be banned. That said, you can have as many acccounts as you'd like, assuming none of them are banned or suspended.

what if PC version gets 8.0 ???badtaker

Then the PC version met hype and the 360 version flopped. Though I dunno if a PC specific hype thread will overrule the 360 hype for the PC version -- if you see what i'm saying :P

Why not just post your GT or a picture with the 360 and your username?
