I am so phsyced about this game. You have the ability to be good or bad. It has real time combat and magic. It also has customization and branching conversations with different stories. There is also leveling up, like any RPG. It has swords, magic, and bows. You can be highly revered by villagers or despised. Although it dumped an originally planned co-op mode, it still should have awsome gameplay and enormous replay value with the ability to be Righteous or devious. Plus this comes with a bonus DVD with 4 hours of making of features and game demos.
Pre-order this game now. Also, don't review this if you dislike RPG's, fantasies, and adventures because your giving it a bad score( at least most will) because of its genre.

Can't WAIT!!!!!!!

I'm a moderate gamer, and normally I don't get too excited over upcoming releases (the Grand Theft Auto series excepted), but when my boyfriend got his new XBox Magazine complete with preview of Fable, I was blown away! This truly looks to be one of the most complex, fun games ever created. You start out as a young boy, and live out your life from that point on. You are constantly confronted with choices, and every decision you make, no matter how big or small, affects what will happen to you later in the game (ex.- battle scars stay with you for life, or characters you have done wrong to could try to kill you). You are either revered or despised by the AI characters in the game, and you alone are responsible for how others see you. While you're out on missions, people back home are going about their lives in real time. You can get married and have children, who could grow up in your absences. Like any other RPG, there's plenty of skill building and fighting, but what really seems to set this game apart is the level of detail that went into the scenery, the AI, and the real-time progression of events. Not to mention the variety of outcomes based on your choices. This is probably the first game I've ever heard of that you could play over and over without the exact same thing happening twice. If the game is as good as the hype, it'll be well worth the $49.99. A definite must-buy!

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!

considering how much detail and effort they put into this game it will probably outrank kotor which is probably the best game on xbox, I can't believe Morrowind is compared with this, we all know Fables gonna be way better. I mean tatoos,clothing,battle scars,haircuts,armor and pets! I know Morrowind has some of those but the graphics suck! Fables graphics are awesome! If you see Morrowind in the store right next to Fable, take my word for it Fables a better choice.

Fable- a choice.

If people compare this game to Morrowind, it's a pretty hard choice for people that's attached to the game. If not, than this is a pretty smart choice. Fable allows you to choose your path, as for other games take you into levels that are the same every time you play them. Like D&D, this game allows you to choose that path you take when you are young and lets you progress it when you are older. You can also change your path if it is not working for you. You can be a heroic heroe. You can perverted loser. And you can be a evil villainist. Overall, this game let's you have the destiny that you would actually choose in reality. I've seen the trailers, the game looks excellent.

Fable...is...the...BEST!!!!!

10. Battle scars and what-not
9. Out of battle life (marraige, offspring, etc.)
8. Appearance change
7. Start out as a kid
6. M-rated
5. Realeases really soon (Sept. 14)
4. Much interaction
3. Rumored to have music from Danny Elfman (Batman, Edward Scissorhands, etc.)
2. Can be good or evil
1. Crazy huge options and many, many ways to end the game
