The game isn't bad. It's beyond boring though. It's strongest point is the story line. The story line is easy to follow, yet intelligently thought out as well. But there is too much dialogue in this game. It will literally put you to sleep. The graphics are cool, but not spectacular like alot of these sights made it out to be. I'm sure the average gamer has seen graphics ten times better. The action is actually good. I like the style switching. It keeps you interested, and makes you want to at least finish what you may have started. But do not get wrapped up into the hype. For a game that has been getting 9.9's in other game magazines, this doesn't hardly live up its expectations. I'll go as far as to say that Fable was better than this.
