Fable II – Game Of The Year?

Games

Simon Miller

I realise that the likes of Gears Of War 2 (7 November), Fallout 3 (this Friday) and Lips (…) are yet to be released, but after hammering away at Fable II for over two weeks, it’s not only a dead cert for a Game Of The Year nomination, but likely, in my opinion anyway, to be the winner.Improving over the original in every way, Molyneux’s sequel boasts a personality I can’t imagine any game even competing with and manages to emotionally integrate you within the experience on par with the best the entertainment field has to offer

Without wanting to spoil it for anyone who is it yet to take the plunge, let’s just say the addition of a dog is far more powerful than it ever should have been and everything from the world to the many, many quests are excellent.It was already my most anticipated game of 2008, and it’s even gone above my high expectations! Bring on III!!
