Edmonton Saint Posted 24 October, 2008 Posted 24 October, 2008 Anyone else got this? Played the first hour or so and have to say I am bloody impressed so far, amazing graphics, gripping storyline and can't wait to get into it over the coming weeks.
St Marco Posted 24 October, 2008 Posted 24 October, 2008 yeah it is quality, thus far my game of the year. So many funny bits in it like if you do lots of crimes and stuff you get given the nickname "Nobhead". So everyone calls you it as you walk by. Classic.
Baj Posted 25 October, 2008 Posted 25 October, 2008 just been playing it since 10pm solid, great game so far.... a little slower paced than the first one
sotonjoe Posted 25 October, 2008 Posted 25 October, 2008 Just picked it up at Sainsburys for £29.70. Cheapest price I've seen / heard of yet.
Johnny Shearer Posted 26 October, 2008 Posted 26 October, 2008 I think this and the fact that Street Fighter IV is coming out soon has made me think I need to buy a 360 soon.
Baj Posted 26 October, 2008 Posted 26 October, 2008 Played for 6 hours, didnt save, back to square one, aaaghghhghhghhaghahghhhhhhhAAGGHH
St Marco Posted 26 October, 2008 Posted 26 October, 2008 Played for 6 hours, didnt save, back to square one, aaaghghhghhghhaghahghhhhhhhAAGGHH but it should auto save everytime you do something i.e leave a shop,move zone etc..? Unless you turned that off? Which is harsh if you did!
Baj Posted 26 October, 2008 Posted 26 October, 2008 Well, ive loaded the game again today, and it wants me to start from the...start. Gah.
St Marco Posted 26 October, 2008 Posted 26 October, 2008 Well, ive loaded the game again today, and it wants me to start from the...start. Gah. ah harsh mate. Normally when you get to the menu screen a continue section is there which has all your saved games on the back of playing cards.
Baj Posted 27 October, 2008 Posted 27 October, 2008 Yeah, in the same way sausages are like paint thinner. Well, the are both (I guess) RPG's, in the vain of building up the stats of your character, take on missions... but in terms of putting the two side by side, no, very VERY different games...
Crouchie's Lawyer Posted 27 October, 2008 Posted 27 October, 2008 Yeah, in the same way sausages are like paint thinner. Well, the are both (I guess) RPG's, in the vain of building up the stats of your character, take on missions... but in terms of putting the two side by side, no, very VERY different games... What kind of game is it then? I have seen some screen shots and read an interview with the creator about it, but am still a little puzzled what its like?
Pancake Posted 27 October, 2008 Posted 27 October, 2008 What kind of game is it then? I have seen some screen shots and read an interview with the creator about it, but am still a little puzzled what its like? Olden day RPG type thingy. Looks ****in ace to be honest, and if I can away with it, Im getting a 360 for this...

If you happen to need a new phone, check out the phones for you offers, or better still dial a phone. They do contracts with free xbox's or PS3's or Wii's
magnet Posted 27 October, 2008 Posted 27 October, 2008 I managed to get a copy off a bloke in ASDA who just bought a 360 bundle and didnt want fable2 for £30. I have only managed a couple of hours so far but am impressed, love the way you can stitch people up if you chose to be bad. Also like the way the female character has got fat cause she eats to many pies!! Would of liked to play longer but couldn't get my kids off of it. I did laugh when my 10 year old daughter found a condom.

CabbageFace Posted 28 October, 2008 Posted 28 October, 2008 its a suckage game for virgins and the like.
St Marco Posted 28 October, 2008 Posted 28 October, 2008 Olden day RPG type thingy. Looks ****in ace to be honest, and if I can away with it, Im getting a 360 for this... It's a quality game. I think it is very much like Monty Python with the humour. The bit with the League of Shadows has got to be up there with the most genius things ever. "We have various days, we like torture tuesdays and on friday we play demonic poker! If you bring someone along and sacrifice them you get dark club points for each sacrifice!" quality.
thesaint sfc Posted 29 October, 2008 Posted 29 October, 2008 Is it like a modern Zelda? Not really my cuppa tea based on the few bits I've seen on it.
Ludwig Posted 29 October, 2008 Posted 29 October, 2008 A bit shorter than that. For me, it's very similar to Oblivion but more interactive, better looking and damn funnier.
sotonjoe Posted 29 October, 2008 Posted 29 October, 2008 Bug-filled but still awesome. yeh, i was thinking that. I'd have thought they could have made it feel a bit less 'unfinished' but I'm still loving it.
magnet Posted 29 October, 2008 Posted 29 October, 2008 Well done ... that's 30p more than you could buy a new copy for in Sainsburys. You must have bartered hard. Bugger, what I could have done with that 30p!! Anybody managed a gang bang yet? I cant get that achivement.
sotonjoe Posted 29 October, 2008 Posted 29 October, 2008 Bugger, what I could have done with that 30p!! Anybody managed a gang bang yet? I cant get that achivement. Gang bangs cost 30p I think.
gaz Posted 4 November, 2008 Posted 4 November, 2008 I've just got this game, I love it. The dog is handy, more than I thought it'd be, finding stuff to dig up. I've got my character looking like someone from an Adam Ant video too, never a bad thing.
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 4 November, 2008 Posted 4 November, 2008 If you happen to need a new phone, check out the phones for you offers, or better still dial a phone. They do contracts with free xbox's or PS3's or Wii's Just bought the wife a new phone from Carphone Warehouse. Samsung E250 (all she needs as she isn't a geek) and 600 minutes and unlimited texts per month for £30 a month. Plus I've got a free PS3 80GB with that song game and mikes. Stupid deal and I could have got a lot better phone and 1200 minutes a month for £40, with a free PS3 or Laptop.
Thedelldays Posted 5 November, 2008 Posted 5 November, 2008 DSM....did you get to take the PS3 away with you there and then or do you have to wait a while for it to arrive..?
mikey_boosh Posted 17 November, 2008 Posted 17 November, 2008 Never having played the first one, is the story easy to get into or is it better to have played Fable I first?
Baj Posted 17 November, 2008 Posted 17 November, 2008 hardly relies on the first one at all, youll be fine
St Marco Posted 19 November, 2008 Posted 19 November, 2008 Next monday (24th) will see a big Fable II announcement. Im guessing it will be a release of an expansion or something similar. Hopefully!
St Marco Posted 24 November, 2008 Posted 24 November, 2008 Well as i said on 19th they have announced download content for Fable II called "Knothole Island" http://www.destructoid.com/lionhead-reveals-knothole-island-dlc-112544.phtml
Ponty Posted 2 December, 2008 Posted 2 December, 2008 It was £19 in Gamestation so I'm giving it a go. Obvious hat-tipping to the Terry Pratchett genre. It's quite slow-going but I have a feeling I'll be disappointed when it's over.
