That's a lie. I just bought a 360 to play Fable 2. Specifically Fable 2. I didn't even buy Halo 3, and you have to get Halo 3 when you get a 360.

There's more to a 360 than halo. 😉

Wow I'm so sorry. How the hell did I misread that? Anyway you don't need Fable 2 or Halo for a 360. I don't have Halo and don't plan on buying it and I only rented Fable.

I wish 2 had better spell stuff and i miss shooting peoples heads off with eaise. However the combat is a bit better then the first melee and ranged wise. Oblivion is cool but i got kind of bored once I completed the main quest. Also it is actually pretty tough when your higher level if your an archer, I have to buy freaking expensive ass arrows > >

Did you unlock the sub-targeting upgrade?

Ya but it's still a little tougher then it use to be.

I'd actually say that fable is more fun but Oblivion is an all around beter game.

Oh please don't make me laugh.

Anyway so I'm still on the fence between this and fallout, so can someone tell me about how you affect the world, i know that was one of the big selling points...and I'm interested in what you can do with it and how it reacts based on you're actions.

Basically what i'm trying to say is, is there any incentive to continue after finishing the main quest, or doing other things in between the main storyline...is it like Oblivion in that sense that you can still have a lot of fun without finishing the story etc?

Yeah you can have a lot of fun without finishing the story. But unlike oblivion the other things you can do aside from the main plot aren't fun. For the most part anyways. The game still has some decent replay value depending on the choices you make and you can get and do new stuff after you've beaten the game. Personally I'd go with Fallout 3. Though I haven't played it if it's made by the people who made oblivion I can expect great things.

Hell...I played Fable 1 and made over 20 characters simply because even after beating it, playing the story was still fun.

Is this game like Fable 1 in that regard?

IMO no, there aren't that many things to do after beating the story. All you can do after beating the game is like finish 1 or 2 sidequests and one of them is just finding a dig spot for an archaeologist. The clothes aren't as good. There isn't any armor, and there aren't that many things that for you customize and make it look good. depending on which version you get either limited or regular then your game may have a bunch of glitches. This game was a good rental but not a good buy unless they expand on it with some DLC. I actually beat it the third time in like 4 hours. That was without screwing around and doing extra stuff.

Well as far as armor goes...Of course there was no armor. Armor was not worn in the time period this game is meant to represent.

Also, like in the commercial, can you really turn your visage into that of a demonic entity, not just some horns on a human, but actually become a creature that appears to be from a demonic plane?

not from what i've seen but i havnt tried to go all the way eveil and currpot with magical markings and being max muscle

yeah you only get horns and eyes. For some reason they only teased you with a true demon form. I know the females get a lizardy tongue unless I saw that wrong on my game. You can get like a magic bearing on your body if you level up your Will high enough.

if your evil the magic marks turn red

not the magic lines on your skin unless I have horrible copy. My character is fully evil and corrupt with blue magic etching on her.

What kinda shit is this?

IDK thats one of the failures of Fable 2. The cover shows a demonic beast but you only gain horns and you can lose your pupils with some grey skin. Also if you're evil, you'll think your wife cheated on you when you have a child.

...Lol.

Actually the dude on the cover is essentially just a human with horns, eyes, and fangs upon close inspection, the fvckin commercial makes it seem as though you can become somethin akin to a literal demon.
