fable is extremly short. its not really worth 50$. your guy changes in the game which is cool. get to pick out some spiffy armor that makes u look cool. get to be this big buff dude that can kill stuff in like 2 hits or a weak wizard that has powerful spells. and u can mix it up.

It is pretty short, but it has a high replay value because you can choose your alignment (good or evil), and what style of ability you want to be good at. You can choose guile, magic, or power. I think it is a good rental game, and not quite worth the $50. But I reccomend it.

Don't let them get you down. Fable is a good game, short if you jus do quests (11-12 hours) but you can spend hours upon hours just in a small villiage mucking around, drinking, dating, stealing stuff and with an open ended story to boot.
I own the game and it is a great experience. (By the way I only buy games that are great.)

buy it or rent it and see what you think

Yeah fable is like a massive RS for Xbox... has the same elements as Runescape but much less boring. It's kinda fun bring an Archer and using a one hit kill to get Bandits... In a mission with Whisper in my childhood I decapitated 2 Bandits by accident.

Ignore these four words.

Fable was a great game, and well worth my 50$, but there was lots of room for improvment. Like a random quest generator so its different every time you play, different types of clothes(instead of just normal, bright, and dark). And a reason to use differant types of armor and weapons, there was no reason for a will user to use the will users robes. Everyone just ended up with plate armor and the stongest weapon they could find, so every character dressed the same.

Go play Morrowind if you like Fable. You'll quickly begin to loathe Fable and want to kill whoever thought it would be funny to call Fable "open-ended".

That is one of the truest things I've heard all week. *Wipes Tear* Thank you Tanikaze! And long live Morrowind!

P.S. To all of you Fable lovers...Go suck a Guar's rear end!

Madcow is right you would even be better off getting Star Wars: KOTOR(the first one) instead of Fable, plus KOTOR is just 20$.

Yes you could Get KOTOR 1 for just $20. If you have enough money(and time) you should get both. If you decide to just get KOTOR 2 you won't really miss anything story wise from the first. There are only a few tidbets/wink winks to the first.

All in all, get the KOTOR's over Fable. Matter of the fact unless you an uber RPG get Fable if you're more into action games, cause that's what it is like. But that's a big IF.

Fable is more of an action-oriented game, and doesn't seem to focus much on the story aspect. KOTOR 2 seems to focus on both. I've played neither, but it already looks like KOTOR 2 will be the best game. Plus, you get lightsabers. Everyone loves lightsabers.

KOTOR is really directed towards the fans but can be picked up by any RPG fan. KOTOR has turn based combat. Meaning that it's kinda like Final Fantasy but the attacks of you and your teammates and enimes don't happen in consetion with each other but still is turn based. Fable is very action oriented. Everything you do has a to be done by pushing buttons.

I believe Fable is played through the third person perspective, as well as KOTOR.

FatalUntouched based on everything that you've said I now do not recomend either. It seems that you haven't done your research and might not even know what a RPG is. So go out and get Burnout 3, Ninja Gaiden, or the new Dead or Alive game.
