IGN: Fable II: The First Three Hours

It's been four years since the release of Fable, an RPG that promised (and failed) to reinvent the wheel. Despite not living up to Peter Molyneux's lofty promises, Fable was still a critical and commercial success. For the sequel, Molyneux is trying to hold the grandiose comments to a minimum. IGN know they are going to love their dog, that they will have unique drop-in and drop-out online co-op, and that the combat is simple on the surface, but has some depth. That much they have seen. Surprisingly, there's a lot of Fable still to be discovered.

I am actually excited for Fable 2.It will be the only game this year capable of competing with a PS3 game.Microsoft should be grateful for having at least one talented studio at their disposal.

After first one being giant over hyped lie and promising us God knows what and giving like 25% of it, i am reserved about Fab 2.

YoshiMeetsU6507d ago

What is your gamertag? Just curious.

Sony Rep6507d ago (Edited 6507d ago )

He doesn't have to give shtt.

tgh machines6507d ago

he is proving that too pawned doesn't even have a gamer tag.

leila016507d ago

what are you so angry about? He just asked a question and he did it nicely. You sound like a frustrated, lonely, little man.

Boldy6507d ago (Edited 6507d ago )

You really go overkill there SonyRep he was just asking a simple question. If Too Pwned wants to reply or not that's up to him, not you.

Anyways I don't want to watch to much of the storyline of Fable 2 because I want it to be a whole new thing for me. No one ruin it for me!!!

Sony Rep6507d ago (Edited 6507d ago )

So what? You don't need no gamertag to play Fable 1.

Sony Rep6507d ago

My whole point was that that OP formulated his opinion by playing Fable 1, and was called out for it. Last I checked, Fable 1 was out on PC and the original Xbox.

Here come the FUD slingers from Planet Sony.

Ok, guys, take your drivel to the openzone.

Thanks.

Sweet game is 15 hours and PM said game is 100 hours if you finish every thing in game.

Panthers6507d ago

When they say everything, do they mean watching a tree grow from an acorn? 15 hrs is short for an RPG. I hope this one is MUCH better than the first.

cherrypie6507d ago

Fable 2 is "15 hours" is just stupid nonsense.

If you play the game, straight through, with no purpose other than to "reach the end", you can probably do it in 15 hours.

Just like you **CAN** beat Super Mario Bros. in 5 MINUTES if you do the same.

This is an RPG. Did you hear you can own houses in Fable 2? Do you think you're going to own one of those posh places without playing the game longer than "point a to b to reach the end in 15 hours"?

No.

Fable 2 is going to have *a lot* of replay, if for no other reason than the CoOp adventuring.

himdeel6506d ago (Edited 6506d ago )

...is a GREAT length, time-wise, especially if you consider speeding through the game. This give you a chance to run through if you need to but also gives you a clear idea of what you can come back and do later, for better or worse. I think this game will have tremendous replayability and it's an A+ in my book...although I may not be able to get it right away :(

Lord Shuhei Yoshida6507d ago

The option to buy all the houses and buildings is astounding.

The 7 Best Xbox 360 Games - Console Exclusives Win the Day

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?

DrDoomer950d ago

I'm pretty used to these lists being bad, but this one is particularly s#ite.

raWfodog950d ago

I think Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon should have been added to the list.

BrainSyphoned950d ago

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*

Husker42c950d ago

I really loved Shadow Complex.

P_Bomb950d ago

Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.

ChasterMies950d ago (Edited 950d ago )

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.

Abnor_Mal950d ago (Edited 950d ago )

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.

darthv72950d ago

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.

Hofstaderman950d ago

When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....

Profchaos949d ago (Edited 949d ago )

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.

BehindTheRows949d ago

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.
