[QUOTE="lawlessx"][QUOTE="NicktehImperial"]Get Oblivion, get FF12, get Mass effect, get the Oblivion SI epansion, get FF13, DO NOT EVER EVEN THINK ABOUT GETTING THAT ABOMINATION CALLED F@BLE! Please, don't even agknoledge its existance.Darklayk
fable is the casual gamer's RPG..morrowind was for the true hardcore rpg lovers.

i.e. read , overweight, spotty, pizza loving nerd with a love for all things highly complicated and thus worthless. Seriously people only like complicated things because it makes them feel special. The simpler something is the better something is. FACT!

No Morrowind had a storyline light years ahead, a bigger world, more weapons and armor and everything ETC. We're not trying to diss non hardcore RPG gamers.

Agreed.

I liked them both equally, I'm pretty hardcore from what people tell me.

Morrowind is remembered as a cult classic, only hardcore Lemmings ever liked Fable.

Hardcore?? I thought i just like good games. I didn't like morrowmind, but I liked oblivion.

[QUOTE="Innocentguy757"]It didn't flop....it just didn't live up to hype. And this one is SURE to be 3x what Fable ever was. This game could definetley rival Final Fantasy.WiiForAll

Which is fancy doubletalk for FLOP.

No, a flop would be that it was terrible. Selling over a million copies isn't a flop.

Sales don't determine floppage here, smart guy. GS scores do. Otherwise, people wouldn't be able to bring up the 8.8 score when talking about the godly Twilight Princess.

Exactly.  Sadly this is the second time I've had to do this in a day, but here is a quote from the informational thread regarding what a flop is: 

Flop- A game that has not lived up to System Wars expectations, such as when a game is hyped AAA and gets below AAA status, or when a game is hyped to a certain score and fails to achieve it. DOES NOT determine the worth of the game.

I wish people would stop making up their own definitions of words here.  Just read the informational thread, it's not that tough.

Fable was a good game despite the hype. Live with it. Fable 2 will probably be great too, but it's best to wait until there is more information on it to actually judge it's outcome...all I've seen on it so far is the E306 trailer and some weird combat system presentation that revolved around the environment. Until I see more, I'm personally going to refrain from hyping it anything.

Fable is my favorite xbox game, and those who own a 360 (not just “lemmings”) have reason to look forward to it. I’ve played Morrowind, and consider Fable to be far superior.

I don't hype, but Fable had a lot of potential to be great. And it is my hope that the developer will learn from Fable 1 and make Fable 2, for lack of a better term, teh awesome.

I didn't understand what was so great about the first one, it flopped, it was a dissapointment, it was supposed to be the "Morrowind killer" but it wasn't, whats the big deal?NicktehImperial
The downfall of Fable 1 was that Peter Molyneux promised way to much for one game to deliver. He even got death threats because the 'plant an acorn and grow your own tree' feature wasnt in (which he announced just a little while back that it IS in Fable 2). Anyway they seem to be a little more on tight on what they release out as features that might be in Fable 2, so with that it should be a better game and possibly AAA unlike the last.

The original Fable was one of the best games on the xbox. I'd hype the sequel, and I'm mainly a PS gamer.

I played both of those games, I finished Fable, then played it again.I thought it was too short, but I could see the potential for something really cool.  Unlike morrowind (spent 3 months with it but never beat it), the combat system in Fable was great, you had complete control over your character in a battle.  You can also customize your fighting style through use of magic and that lends itself to some deadly combinations.  In morrowind, the combat was just odd, so much that I tried never to have to fight in that game and instead resorted to scheming and back stabbing.

now with the sequal to Fable on the way, I can't wait to play that game, the first one was over when it was starting to get interesting.  Oblivion, I've been intersted in playing, but I'm just afraid that it'll be just as bad as Morrowind in the combat area, which really makes or breaks that gaming experience.

i really enjoyed Fable & Fable:TLC for my Xbox- it just suffered from being MAJORLY OVERHYPED- so ppl expected way too much. still it was a really good game.
