Finally a decent XBOX RPG

This game has it all for the console RPG fan. Great graphics, full of quests, and weeks of non-stop gameplay. Everything in Fable is laid out quite well, but I wish they would of made each region bigger. Also, you cant just aimlessly wander to any point on the map, but all in all, this is definately a keeper. This is what we have been waiting for and to me it lives up to the hype. Get this game today.

Great but way to short.

Fable... What can we say about fable that all the other 37 people have said about it. The graphics are breath taking. The World just begs to be explored. (even if it is to kill thing to get mor XP) The ladies are fun to marry. Yet the fact remains I wanted more. I want more quest more weapons. GIVE ME MORE. Why the hell would you make a great game and only put about ten hours of main quest in there. There was a person back there saying that it was more in depht than KOTR. I beg to Differ. For one if you can never speak Why cant you be a female Character?. Or why do you Age about 60 years in about 3 days of In game time?. Why does every one else look young and healthy when they should be 90?. Why cant you choose how your characters face look like?. There are alot of thing they could have made custom for the player and not set. The fact that you cant Choose your dialog is also disapointing. You cant interact whith this great world they have created. I Know you have gestures but being able to tell some one off is half the fun of an RPG. I did like the fact that if you want you can slaughter Any one that pisses you off. That is one thing KOTR Need badly. The sad part is that I really wish that they had made it a bit longer and that the aging part wasnt as severe. I do hope that the online thing will pan out and maybe we can get more quest or different characters. No I have a question. If you can only be male why can you buy a dress? Or why is the english flag on his but?

exellent!! but could be better.

I thought that Fable was one of the best games that I'ved ever played. The makers did an great job on the world itself and everything in it. I thought that the only thing that could be better is the timing. I though just like everyone else, it could be longer. But I'm not gonna cry and whine like everyone else. Its not like you cant start a new game and play it totally different than the one before. Thats the great thing about this game, you cant play the same game twice.

Fun!

This is an rpg. You do anything. If you are good you will have an angelic glow and you will be admired by everyone but if you are evil you will have devil horns and people will flee from you. You have weapons and magic and you can get tattoos, haircuts, clothes, armor etc. You can buy estates for your guy and even get married and have kids. A torture chamber awaits simple morons and you can use it! This will be great!

for your information you can see previews and screens about the game in the internet without the game actually being released. Maybe thats why they know a little bit about the game even if it releases in semptember.Even if they are just guessing its none of your @$$#%#&* bussiness. Thanks for reading.

What I purchased was not the game at all!!! It was a Bonus CD that had a demo game on it. I guess I really need to read the fine print from now on. I ended up with a pretty case and not the game I wanted at all. Probably won't ever do this again.

Very fun, gets a bit dull though towards the end

No doubt about it, this is a great game. It is a completely different RPG and a definate succesfful one. You can do apsolutely anything u want, steal, beg, rome, turn evil, anything, hit peasants, crime, (etc.) The only problem though with this games is that it tends to get a bit dull at some points of the game. Here are my pros and cons

Pros:

Great graphics
Ability to do anything
Be bad, or good
Completely new RPG and different in a good way

Cons:

gets boring at some points
no online support/content downloads

"This Is A Great Game"

I played this game for 24 hours, and I am shocked. I think "Halo 2" will have to have no flaws to beat this game. On the plus side of this game, you can destroy villages, kill random people, or give gifts to women that like you. And you can do other thing besides doing the story, this game is like "Grand Theft Auto", but it's an RPG, so sooner or later you will get BORED and you want to do the story. "Fable" is way better than "Knights Of The Old Republic", you caqn do what ever you want. On the negative side, "Fable" is really short, most gamers will beat it in a day, or in 9 hours. But think about it, this game was meant to be an online game, so thats why its so short, they rushed it to early. Even with that flaw, I still recommend it to all gamers, don't buy "Sudeki" get this game.

The Second Best RPG I have ever played!

That title is saying a lot considering I have played pretty much every RPG for the Xbox and Gamecube. You start out the game as a young boy, doing tasks around the village and will eventually, go out on your own to compleate quests for the quild and other people.
To be short, the replayability is, hold on... wait for it... ZERO. You will spend most of your time compleating the main quest line and once in a while will work on helping out one of the citizens of Albion. Believe me, you dont want to replay that main quest ever again. It gets old after the first time. The Final Boss it also one of the hardest bosses I have ever fased.

All in All, Fable is a very good game for 20 bucks, but I would sugjest buying "The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Game of the Year" First, being it is only 20 bucks to. Morrowind by itself has a bigger storyline, more side quests, and you can actually explore! Then comes the expansion (GOTY)that adds over 80 more hours of game play. The Choice is obvious, right?

Best RPG Game on the for Xbox!!!
