Fable III

I'll "try" it on PC. I've never played a fable game before.

I played the first Fable game when they released it on PC. It's VERY much on rails. You can't really branch out beyond the story line. Sure, there's a good number of side quests, but you are the hero and you have to kill the big evil dragon guy, and that's about it. Random encounters do not really exist. Monsters spawn in certain areas repeatedly. Albion feels very... "small" at times. The aging system is fairly retarded too.

Don't get me wrong though. It's a fun game for a play though or two. If you like a game that focuses on character driven play, to the point that you can even get married, it's good. I guess if you took Oblivion removed the randomness, removed a good bit of the "stat" portion of the game, and gave it more of a "WoW" look, you'd have Fable.

I didn't really get to play Fable 2 much. So I can't say if they fixed some of these issues. But from what friends tell me they focused more on character development.

It will be interesting to see what they do with Fable 3.

Never played any of these, but I was impressed with the commercial I saw for this game. So I looked it up. It sounds really good. I am concerned with the thing I read on wikipedia about the game being released on Xbox Live marketplace by episodes, just like Fable 2. It said the first Episode would be free. So is an Episode a level? Do I get level 1 for free when I buy the game, and then have to spend MP to play the rest of the game? If so that sucks.

I picked it up last week. Not a bad game at all, haven't had any freezing issues but it's seems extremely glitchy on my Zephyr chip 360. I'm sure it runs smoother on the new wifi 360's but it's disappointing to me that the game doesn't run as smooth as Fable II did. Still fun though....

Ya, I got it. Was disappointed. I actually liked Fable 2 better ...Meh.

Same, I'm trying to finish it but I cant justify playing it over NBA2K11 right now. It's not a terrible game, definitely prefer the storyline of Fable I+II better but the glitches just keep angering me to the point I just pop in 2K11....

I rented this the other day, and I have not stopped playing it. I put it in for the first time somewhere in the 4th quater of the Panthers game, and did not stop until 2am. Then started at 7am the next morning until about 8pm. I did beat the game though. I didnt see much glitching exept sometimes it would move really slow, but if you sit still for a bit, it seemed to correct itself. I love this game, and love the multiplayer. I never played the other 2, but this is really a good game. I will be buying this soon.

    • If I could pie more, I would. Fantastic 
    • Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
