Play of the Week – Fable 2
Ok I won’t lie about the fact that I had serious doubts about Peter Molyneaux’s chances of delivering a good experience with Fable 2 but it seems I’m the one with the pie on my face if first impressions mean anything. I’ve played Fable 2 for a little bit and so far I can tell I’m going to waste quite a bit of time trying to grow my character the right way and become the ultimate hero.
I’m always up for co-op if you guys see me online. I need some cash!

Hey Deacon, thanks for that co-op achievement we got. I love this game. One of my managers from work is playing it and he owns, rents out, every single house in the gypsy village. Plus, spent 4-5 hours working upto a 5-star level blacksmithing. I love it.

I’m a little disappointed in the whole henchman coop aspect, I was hopeing for a bit more of an mmo feel applied to a 2 player coop situation. Dont get me wrong this is a really good game and i love playing it, the live orb interaction is just a great example of forward thinking for the console. That said I find it less desirable to go into a friends game and accomplish minimum gains in someone elses body. I guess having a truckload of sparrows running around in different clothes may have eventually worn thin as well but at least I would have felt like I was visiting a friends game with my own weapons, my own stuff and my own character. Now I feel like an invasion of the body snatchers zombie that somebody gave a shovel and instructed to kill everything so I can eat… little purpose or reason, just mindless exhistance…

I am loving Fable 2, Lionhead really pull off atmosphere better than anyone else in the industry. I agree there are several issues with the game pilex, especially the pseudo co-op but I’m holding out hope for a patch.

It’s pretty cool so far. I’m up for co-op when I’m online!

I love it as well and will be playing it more over the next few days. I’ll switch late Saturday evening to Gears of War an prep for the Community Day though. I’ve never played GoW, so I want to get use to that and can always slide back into Fable 2 at anytime.
