Okay. Fable 2. It's finally here! Was it worth the wait? Definitely! Graphics: Fully reaching the 360's capacity, it rivals the beauty of Oblivion. Sound: The ambient music is very calming (or raging) depending on your setting. It really sets the tone for the whole game. The voice acting is exquisite, and very humorous dialogue. Controls: This is the reason I rated Fable 2 a 9.5 and not a 10... the ONLY reason. Although the button layout is ingenious, and makes large impacts with the few buttons it uses, the movement can get buggy. It is very hard to maneuver in water, and the dog gets in the way when you need to get somewhere. These occasions rarely occur, and it is only a minor annoyance to the otherwise flawless game. I would give it a 9.7 or 9.8, but unfortunately, those scores don't exist. Story: This is the kicker! This game flows, and the story is a strong current! I won't say much on this, but just know that you will be playing it like an 8 year old listening to his bed-time story. And as you all know, the concept of everyone starting equal (except the male-female difference) then allowing our imaginations to wander is great and unique and FUN! Well, I'll leave the rest to you, play it yourself.
