Fable Reviews

The latest reviews for Big Blue Box and Lionhead's Xbox RPG can be found over at AceGamez and TotalVideoGames. AceGamez gave the game an overall score of 8/10:
Epic RPG fans will jump right into the ambitious world of Fable and quickly defeat all the quests like anybody else, but what makes this experience different are the great moments you have with people around town or on one of your journeys across the world. There's plenty to explore, find, and do, which includes a couple features better suited for an online game, such as getting married or buying a house, which can be rented out. Fable's low points hurt the game quite a bit, especially the length of the game, which could be beaten in three days if you played it a decent amount. It's because of this and the poorly designed world that I would only recommend this game as a purchase if you're a true hardcore RPG nut looking for an epic feeling adventure with a great set of novelty features not found anywhere else.

And TotalVideoGames gave the game an overall score of 9/10:
Although Fable provides a very different experience to what we initially envisaged, it's testimony to the game that it manages to exceed what we had imagined in the years that Fable has been in development. It's usually impossible to meet such demands, however Fable does it magnificently; it's just one game to saviour and enjoy, whilst it lasts...
