fast, fun and very free yet promises were broken with this sequel.

fable 2 is a good game BUT for people who played the first it is a complete failure on what this game was supposed to be (since lionhead seem set on telling us their games will do everything short of make you breakfast) yet fable revolutionised rpg's and alround game stories it was hard not to expect an outstanding sequel(s) with this game it delivers in a quite a few aspects but just lacks in comparison to what was promised.

The roaming aspect of the game is as brilliant as the first with lots of little caves and mines to delve into, a problem with fable 2' rather beautiful terrain is that it is very easy to get wedged behind a rock and any hill that a toddler can climb completely baffles your buffed up hero, this ruins the fluid movement a large amount.
i enjoyed the game a tremendous amount, now this may be due to my love of the original game and the fact i love to grind till my abilities are maxed out, but there are parts of the game you can truly spend some time just playing around, for example finding all the silver keys to unlock chests with potions and legendary weapons or shooting the faces of smug gargoyles.

So now i have poked the game with tiny holes and then gave it a gentle pat on the head, i feel correct when i say everyone should at least give it a decent chance, the story is great, the combat is easy but fun and there is some pieces of comedic gold within!
