Fable 2 is one of the must-have games of 2008. If its unique artistic approach and hours of gameplay built in, this game is loads of fun to play single player and co-op. Though the multiplayer is somewhat glitchy, in the next several weeks (hopefully) the problems will be solved. Fable 2 takes a complete turn on an RPG, enabling a variety of jobs which one can achieve certain ranks or "premotions" in. With its large game world, it is easy to get lost in the game. Even though the game may be large, their is a certain sense of entrapment. You are able to explore to a degree but Lionhead has put a lot of limitations of what you can actually do. If you liked Fable 1, then Fable 2 is a must have and a great game for those new to the "series". But what makes this game a great game is the fact that though it has many RPG elements, it sticks to the story and everything else acts as almost side missions and quests. Their are hundreds of ways to customize your character as well. Everything you do will determine what your character will look like, express, and how others will react to you. The animations are done beautifully and though the graphics could be better, they show tremendous detail to an extent. Fable 2 is indefinitely one of the must have games of 2008.
