Lionhead has done away with some of the "mindless" one-button combat seen in Fable 1 and 2 for the third game in the series - in an attempt to get players using some of the RPG's all-new fighting mechanics.
Fable II launched back in 2008 and remains the best the series has offered. Ahead of the series comeback, it's time to look at the classic.
Loved this game, oh and i always saved my dog at the end, hope the new Fable has a animal companion.
Fable 2 was the best inthe series. Peter waaaaaaay over promised with fable 1 and it was good but disappointing. He didn't go crazy eith hype for the second game and it was surprisingly awesome. Then he ran his mouth promoting 3 and it was the worst of the 3.
I only got to play it once 😩 I'm so tempted to buy a Xbox 360 slim but planning on getting the series x soon since I got a PS5 in February Im ready to get saints row 1&2 back, GTA 4, fable 2, but I also want to play infamous 1&2 again Sony screwed us over with the stream only for saints row 2 and other gems smh
The Fable series is one of our favorite gaming franchises. Heres what we want from the rumoured sequel
Microsoft announced Fable Legends at Gamescom 2013, not E3 2013. I'd like for the new Fable to have the same artstyle as Fable Legends.
Well lets hope Microsoft are going to announce a new Fable. The MS fans deserve a great Fable game. If it is announced and the gameplay looks cool, this might convince me to get, at least a Series S. It would be my very first Xbox console.
Hell no Fable legends is NOT what we wanted.
Fable 2 is what we want outta Fable. Remake Fable 2 please.

This has to be one of the lamest lists I have seen for wishing for sequels.
Perfect Dark should be on the top of this list and it's amazing that MS hasn't even attempted to try and bring this amazing franchise back.
Charlie Murder, MS should pay and get Ska Studios to make a sequel to this excellent beat 'em up game. IMO, they should have been the ones to make Battletoads
Lost Odyssey, another no brainer and should be right up there with the whole Gears/Halo/Forza chant. And while we are talking about JRPGS...
Magna Carta, I loved the art style for this game. MS should definitely try and get a sequel to this for their new syste,
Bomberman Live, really one of the best in the series and I loved how it was simple and just focused on MP. Being able to customize your Bomberman was fun and I would love to see this make a return to Live.
sunset overdrive 2... oh wait
EDIT: a trolling once in a while is ok, unlike most of the N4G users tho.
Lookin smexy.
graphics on this game look outstanding
"We work so hard on all the content so we don't want to use difficulty as a way to frustrate our users and keep them from finishing the game."
Dude, you can't die. There's no game over screen, and if you lose you literally just get back up and keep going at the place where you "lost". If your audience is going to get upset and quit in a scenario where they are invincible then you may be marketing your game to people who have too little patience to play any kind of games.
I'm actually watching this one closely.
The way they have the Fable franchise set up, it seems it should have played out better than this.
I'm not entirely sure how to describe it.
The humor isn't quite what it could be.
The mechanics aren't quite what they could be.
The characters aren't the most memorable.
It's like everything in Fable is on the verge of "pretty good". It's just not there yet.
It's strange to think that this same team (most of it) created Black & White 1 and 2...two of my favorite games of all-time.
Lionhead,
I'm talking to you! Give me the finalized script for a week and I'll give you an Oscar-worthy script in return. Then, head on over to Naughty Dog to get your gameplay mechanics reviewed by the team there. While you're out there, see what Sony Santa Monica is up to! They can help in the graphics department. Why not see what Bungie is up to as well? Respawn? They could both help with the online struggles of the Fable series.
What I'm trying to say is...
...try harder!
Comparing your old work to your new work is like comparing Monty Python and the Holy Grail...and Monty Python's Meaning of Life.
One of them is arguably the funniest movie ever made, while the other is just a throwaway comedy.
I never liked fable and any recent molyneux game. The only one i truly enjoyed was magic carpet^^
