Fable 2 Review

Fable 2 is an action RPG game that is a bit different from most of the other games I have. It is all about choices as well and morality and your choices affect the whole world. You can be good saving people's lives, giving money to people and eating carrots! Or you can be evil and kill everyone, have sex with prostitutes and eat lots of pies! It is really interesting seeing the consequences your choices have on the world and you really do shape the world which is called Albion.

Gameplay is quite addictive and although you could probably complete the three part main mission in a few hours there is so much more to do. There are many side quests to do, jobs to have, expressions to use, people to marry or to kill and just have fun! I got the Game of the Year Edition for just £12 something recently from TheHut.com and this included all the DLC which adds more quests to the game! The Game of the Year Edition also gives you more achievements and the achievements for this game are of a really high quality and varied. You get some for kicking chickens, some for completing the main missions, some for becoming rich and another example is one for becoming 100% corrupt or pure!

The fighting is not that important in the game in a way and sort of basic. You can either use melee type attacks, shoot your enemies from long range or use some cool magic spells on your enemies! There are quite a few different types of enemies to keep you on your toes and some can be quite difficult to kill! When an enemy dies you can collect experience which allows you to learn new abilities and help you. For example become tougher, learn a new spell or become better at a new one or say unlock sub targeting meaning there are many fun and different ways to fight! One major flaw is that if you die you lose some experience and get a new scar making you slightly less attractive - oh no! They should make it so you have to do the last bit all over again!

You can also just roam around Albion and do whatever you want. You can try to buy nearly all the houses and shops and become rich, marry people (as many times as you want) or just use expressions on people! The people of Albion are brilliant and all have different likes and dislikes! The expressions are really cool and vary from dancing to farting to giving someone the finger or pick up lines! The people are also really funny and as it is a British game it has a British sort of humour!

You can play co-op but it really does not work well and I would not recommend it! A nice feature though is that you can make it so can see everyone who is playing the game and doing so can see their stats, give them gifts and communicate!

Also there are many other things to do like shoot all the gargoyles, open all the demon doors, becoming the ruler of Albion, buy everything in sight, change your clothes, get a tattoo, have sex, kill everything and so much more it really is a fun game!

I really do like this game although some people really don`t like it! I find it really fun and love the choices aspect and think it has great replay value. I also like the achievements for the game and would recommend the game to anyone with an Xbox 360. This game is an Xbox exclusive though so PS3 owners will have to miss it!

Try it if you have an Xbox 360.
