I usually don't get hyped up for games but I'll admit this one has made a sucker out of me.

This was one of the reasons I got an X-Box.

My two cents.

[SnoBorderZero]

Yeah basically you can do it all in this game. Hell you can live a life with yur wife and kids and run a store or at like a real estate agent, you can have a wife in every town you visit, or you can just live on the road, be good, be bad, have hair, dont, have tatoos, don't, mess with ppl's lives, help ppl, etc. You seriously can do it all. Thanks Drizzt for the info.

[Inval1d]

i'm getting this for sure.

I'm going to be a baddie! :D

Just like in KOTOR

[Malitos_Sahkir]

Heh, hate to tell you two but alot of the games "Revolutionary" elements have been changed or taken out altogether to either A) Meet the release-deadline, or B) They couldn't be done. Gamespot reported alot of the changes with it's E3 coverage of Fable.

[Hitman]

The hype is massive but even though I'm excited enough to purchase the game on release I'm gonna read the reviews 1st.

[SnoBorderZero]

Yeah always read reviews. For example, Driv3r and Sudeki. Lots of hype, lots of crap.

[beyond_th3]

I heard of Fable last year, and it is the only reason why I got an x-box.

[Drizzt240]

I've been looking foward to this game for like 2 years and I was really excited when I saw it's first magazine advertisement last month.

[Oj]

The hype is massive but even though I'm excited enough to purchase the game on release I'm gonna read the reviews 1st.

Same for me. Games like this always have a tendency to go horribly wrong.

[emmortalthug]

for some reason i know there will be few glitches in Fable like ALL RPGS,,, but Fable will be one of the best games to hit the market in the last 2-3 years,,

i have a feeling 1 reason why they took half the stuff out of Fable was perhaps to add it IF and WHEN they make Fable 2 .. if they put everything into one game what would Make a Part 2 ??

same for BC they took some stuff out of BC because they are going to be making BC 2 from what ive heard and seen in another post on IGN, anything that was taken out of fable and BC now will more then likely be added to BC 2 and Fable 2

i wasnt going to Preorder Fable but

i went ahead and Preordered it along with Doom 3 for Xbox last weekend, i have the reciept on my wall so my mom or dad doesnt throw it away when they visit.my mom has a tendecy to do things like that... lol

[Riddle]

Does anyone know the official release date for the UK?
I've looked around and the only consistant one I could find was Sept. 3rd. But there are other sites with conflicting dates..... For example, the official XBox site says it's Oct. 2004, which I don't really trust that much...

[Boro]

i was excited for this game... but after reading all of those changes....

[emmortalthug]

the Company that is maken fable have a release date for US and UK, US release date is September,UK Release date is October,. so yea the Xbox release date is good 2

[Drizzt240]

i was excited for this game... but after reading all of those changes....
What changes?

[ProgramNeo]

I pre-ordered it, can't wait!

[SnoBorderZero]

I was gonna pre-order it but GameStop was out of the DVD. :angry:

[The_PBCer]

too bad its not going to be for ps2

[Boro]

i remember seeing a list of stuff that has been cut from the game along the way. to tell you the truth, i'm too lazy to look it up.

[Hitman]

So it looks like everything boils down to the reviews. No one seems to have an idea of what has been cut out or proof, for that matter.
