Simon tackles the Peter Molyneux sequal - does it live up to the hype this time?
I didn't really mention how wonderful I think the graphics are in my video review, there are some stunning lush environments all complemented with a spectacular lighting engine. Also the Hero character is amazingly versatile and consistent with all the crazy morphs you can do to it, must be the most adaptable character model in any game ever.
Sadly I didn't get a chance to try out the multiplayer, but I just don't have any friends... :(
Be sure to give this game a chance, it really is a unique and engaging product. Sometimes it's a little too easy to be dismissive of Peter Molyneux, but he has really worked out the kinks for this wonderful sequel.
Summary
Fable 2 is a fantastic game that has improved on the original 100%. I highly recommend it to all you budding heroes out there, this ones a real charmer.
Pros
An excellent user friendly action RPG! Fun character development and customisation, engaging combat, immersive story, fantastic visuals and imaginative world. Now with 100% more dogs!
Cons
Sometimes a little buggy, clunky menus, exploitable economy.
