big fan of fable 1 as simple as it was (and despite not finishing it myself...my son did)

outside with the 2 ah allyuh, game was bess, loved it, gave me all the rpg whore stuff i like, nah really into these shooter passing as rpg thing (I'M LOOKING AT YOU MASS EFFECT 2!)

run it back yo, is not like you can't acquire it, and it's not a particularly long game if you just do the main story, 6-7 hours max.

Fable was way too Rpg-lite,

 hope the third one is more fleshed out.

[TriniXaeno]

yeah, I was expecting a deeper experience but it was still fun. I'm a big fan of the action RPG genre which has such few gems like Advent Rising and Silver.

From that stand point....Fable 1 kicked ass.

If you try to rate it like a traditional PC RPG (say Baldur's Gate, Elder Scrolls or Never Winter Nights) it definitely comes up short.

lol @ Mass Effect 2 pretending to be an rpg.
