I'm gonna do this thread purely out of boredom to try and document my first moments with this highly anticipated blockbuster. Popping the disc in now...
The game instantly patches. I'm guessing that's the co-op patch they promised on day 1. Or -5 for this matter/
I got it...but I'll hold off until Tuesday before I start playing it. I'm expecting to be disappointed.
dont be like me people... Dont assume you know the buttons. I didn't realize you had to hold RT to absorb the exp orbs. I was assuming i got them. Went the whole 1st lvl without getting any exp orbs. Dmb Mor
Since LBP is delayed I am trying to decide if I would rather get Fable 2 instead. Should I wait and go for Fallout 3? I am the anti-decider
very true. but the way it was told, it felt very fairy tale-ish. Hopefully this one is more "omg, everyone is really dead" instead of disney.
Okay enough is enough. You won Mor. I now have to go purchase the piece of hardware I need to make this happen. Been holding off but noooo......Mor keeps pushing the buttons.
If you want to know... It happens very early in the game, so it's not a REA spoiler. But I didn't see it coming.... Spoiler You watch your sister get shot and killed right in front of you... And yes, very different feel then Fable 1. Not so 'Disney-ish'
i take reviews with a grain of salt, but Fable is so far averaging over a 9/10 on Gamerankings.Fable II Reviews
It was reviewed a lot higher than I expected... http://www.joystiq.com/2008/10/21/metareview-fable-2-xbox-360/
I think maybe people are reading me wrong... I'm by no means saying Fable2 is bad. I actually love it. I don't think it's as good as Fallout 3 (because that's a big RPG split decision for a lot of folks), but it's a great game. If you have the means, I totally recommend buying both of them. Given a choice, I'd go with Fallout.
I had the chance to buy Fable 2 today and passed. I think for me I'm going to rent it, I'm not into spending $70 bucks for a once through game anymore and Moloneau even said in an article he didn't want people playing it more than once...
Gah my wallet wont be able to handle the hollidays. Fable 2, Fallout 3 and Gears 2. And Im sure something else will catch my eye. If it was just me Id probably stick with Fallout, but the wife really enjoyed Fable 1 so she will grab 2. Thanks for the reviews.
