''We've all heard plenty about Fable 2's simplicity in control, upscaled world and menu systems and its general functionality. After having a good half hour of playtime, I can safely say that Fable 2 is looking to be the third easiest console RPG out in the market, just behind Eternal Sonata and Fable.
Peter Molyneux's vision of creating simple controls and interface has worked. Face buttons all perform one specific function, though depending on how long the button is held or the circumstances of the button press, can have different effects. For instance, the X button is solely for sword attacks, but pushing X and pushing X while going forward on the left thumbstick will provide different attacks.
The same logic applies to projectile weapons, which are hosted by the Y button, and magic, the B button. A is for selecting and the action button. The entire D-pad is for four different functions dealing with the dog, such as delivering positive or negative reinforcement, or possibly playing catch with the animal. Other options become available depending on the items in hand and situation at hand.

The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?
I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*
Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.
Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.
Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.
The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.
360 had Namco hitters AC6 and RR6... both quality titles. You should at least bust out the 360 for AC6 if you can score the flight stick. Its great.
When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....
It's a nostalgia peice same reason we get thousands of YouTube videos on sega genisis. Something people have fond memories for but the era is long gone.
It's xboxs golden year imo it was their genisis years the time where they stuck it to the market leaders Sony.
They stuck nothing. Sony screwed themselves giving Xbox an opening. They would have gotten the usual smack down if the PS3 had launched at $399 and was easier to develop for.
