Title: Fable 2 demonstration

Combat looks pretty good for an RPG. Those 'jobs' mini-games don't look exciting. I like the whimsy medieval fantasy setting.

I'm a quasi-fan of the first one. 4 out of 5, grading generously. I didn't particularly follow the development of it, so I didn't care about whatever features that didn't make it in, and I'm not following the development of this one, so I don't even know what features to look for. I just hope the story is a bit stronger and more fleshed-out this time around.

But this is the one game I've seen media from during this E3. The music is exceptional, which is to be expected, given the first game.

What's the due date on this? Also, I'm glad to see HAUNTED VILLAGE is in, that's my favorite genre of fantasy location

October, according to Peter. It's content/feature complete, now they're just polishing and tightening the graphics.

Thought the first one severely underdelivered, but there was still a decent game in there... this one looks to be really good, I can't say I have extremely high expectations for it but I'm sure it'll be worth playing. Dig the graphics, love the music (best part about Fable 1), and think that their approach to co-op is an awesome idea. I can't wait to go around farting on people and farting in front of my wife again.

The massive hype killed the first one for me, so I'm going to avoid reading about this one as much as possible.

I hope they fix some of the problems of the original and are able to put back in some of the things they took out.

I loved the last one, finished it on good and evil. I looked like satan by time I was done on the evil side. My horns were big.

Day 1

Wow, those screens look awesome.  The first one particularly is totally different from what I was expecting.

Finally got around to watching the videos.

I was going to pick this up regardless, but it really is looking much more pee-my-pants-awesome than I was expecting.  :o
