E3: Fable 2 massive combat and death movie

Peter Molyneux shows the lot in this exclusive movie.

Two especial points of interest emerged: first up is Fable’s combat system, which uses just a single button (the blue X) for hand-to-hand combat (with magic and ranged weapons on the red and green). What’s interesting though is how it’s moved on since the original Fable, so that although you can play it as a simple button masher, more advanced players will be able to use a combo of rhythmic taps to pull off much more sophisticated melee moves or ‘hold’ to block and charge up power moves. Check out the movie for the full details.
