"Fable 2" is a fantastic 'sequel'. This means that if you did not like Fable, then there is a pretty good chance you wont like this game either. However, if you did like the first one, then you most likely will love this one even more. If you have never played the first Fable (or a game like "Fable") then keep in mind that games like this only get better the more you play them. For example: the combat system might seem a little bit week at first, but it will greatly improve as you build up your attributes. So the bottom line is to be patient if you're not use to building up your attributes (RPG style). For the most part "Fable 2" basically maintains the same style of game-play, with some new things thrown into the batch of course. The best additions are definitely co-op mode and the inclusion of a pet dog (which is masterfully crafted with personality).

On a side note:
This definitely does not always happen when I read a review, but in this particular case I would like to state that I completely agree with Tom Mc Shea's official Gamespot review. I really can't address the positive and negative qualities of this game any better that what he has stated, and I commend him for such a well written article. I highly recommend anyone curious about "Fable 2" read what he has written. My only minor quibble is that this game deserves at least a 9.0 (Editors Choice) score.
