Okay... that was kind of creepy. If they make a Fable 3 and this happens, something evil is up.

Oh, and no, we will not cover this, because we only cover PC RPGs.

Most of those features are likely to be cut, or severely cut down?

For starters, the kid will play a significant role? Uhuh. They say the game will be 4-5 times longer than Fable. Let's do the math...

Fable, at most, was 20 hours. 5 times that is 100 hours. Let me see now, you are supposed to have a romance, get married, have the kid group, AND have a significant impact on the game? Uhuh. Likely they mean the kid will be kidnapped while young. R00fles!

20 endings? Uhuh. Not even the FO series has that many not counting the area endings, and if we count those we might as well say that JE and HOTU has more than 20 endings too.

The list goes, on and on.

That said, if a miracle happens, and they pull this off it'll be awesome. They won't do so it won't be awesome.


"Oh, and no, we will not cover this, because we only cover PC RPGs."

As you know, Fable 1.5 is coming to PC. I'd wager if that sells reaosnably well; I'd figure Fable 2 will also likely be for PC at least at some point.

And, oh, those graphics, if in engine, look pretty sweet. If that really is Fable 2. I mean, I find this to be bull sicne they're still working on Fable 1 for the PC...

Hmmm..

So much information available for a agme that isn't officially announced..

But they have bonus hairstyles!

And having kids makes games better. Just ask Phantasy Star 3.

Hey, some of those sound like the feature list for the original Fable. ;) Being an RPG and all, have they decided to add like, actual dialogue and stuff?

I don't and I wouldn't. Also, this isn't Fable 2 at all apparently, but Fable 360. Check your facts.

Yeah, I think that's what he's referring to, funny though it is I made a similar mistake some time ago and Spazmo called me an idiot for it, and I rebutted by saying, "Hey, French sucks", or something to that degree. That said, Fable 2 will probably suck a lot of armpit sweat, just as much as the first game and Black & White do.
