    I actually LOVED Fable. I'm frothing at the mouth for Fable 2 next week. It's the only reason I'm NOT getting Little Big Planet next week.

    I'm definitely the opposite on that. Fable is still on my roster, but after playing Beta, I'll be on LBP first. I did enjoy the first Fable, but not as much as the three days with Beta. But knowing me I'll get both, so what am I saying.

    With you on both Fable and Fable 2 100%. I absolutely can't wait for the release. Loved the first game to death even if I did end up beating it in less than a week. Now I just need to blow through Dead Space so I can justify starting Fable II. No clue what the hell I'm going to do with both Fable II and Fallout 3...decisions, decisions.

    Just a point, LBP is pushed back by a week now. Its been recalled due to "potentially offensive content" aka two passages from the Qur'an in lyrics of background music. More time to play Fable I guess.

    Well yes because I wouldn't have picked Fable up this week if LBP came out, so know, with them spaced out a bit I can. I will have to put a hold on Fallout, as much as I do want it. I'm stoked about picking Fable up at midnight. I might even dress up. Hell if there are freebies, I'll look lik an ass for an evening.

    Will wait on reviews and such before playing this, was really bitten in the ass by the first one (followed it since it was known as Project Ego and got waaay to hyped for it :( ).

    I'll probably be picking it up in the next day or so. If I can find it in stock at a Gamestop.

    My housemate got her copy today. She's been playing it all day. Looks alright, but I never played the first one.

    I just picked my copy up 45 minutes ago. Will be online tonight! :D  Probably won't do any multiplay though until I get used to the game though.

    Anybody (friends) join is on by default, theres an option for Everybody, Friends, or no one then an auto join option.

    Played a bit with a friend, I hadn't done anything so I just picked a neutral swordsman. It dropped me into the game just as a henchmen. I really, really hope that you're not glued together if you're playing your individual characters. As the henchmen we had to be relativley close to advance and the camera was just horrible since it would try and focus on us rather than give us each an individual camera perspectivel.

    Started single player afterwards. I always thought the dog was a gimmick that I wouldn't care for at all. Its so awsome for some unknown reason though. Got the chest to give me the Hal Armor (Halo Armor) and my web game rewards (Chicken suit, Hero Doll and a feign fight expression). the Hal armor and sword are pretty slick, the Hero Doll is sporting Union jack underpants.

    I've also taken great pride in holding farts for long periods of time, occasionally I'll let it slip so I crap my pants just for the hell of it. My ultimate goal is to join random peoples games and crap my pants then leave to the next random.

    Yes. Theres an emote for fart, press it and you fart. If you hold it a swinging meter comes up with the area for success getting smaller the longer you hold. If you land outside the area you crap yourself. My juvenile mindset finds it to be one of the greatest accomplishments in a game.

    This. A friend of mine popped in and we were talking about the same thing. It seemed like he was just there along for the ride.


    And this. My buddy and I got into the cavern where you step into the light, and the woman was speaking about its importance. I stepped up into the light, my buddy standing beside me... and I try to fart so hard I crapped my pants. We laughed a good 10 minutes off and on about that. :lol

    I'm really loving it and the world is nice, lush and big, and best of all, no mini zones like in Fable 1. I think Sparrow controls a little sluggish, but that's probably because I've been playing Twilight princess a lot and Link moves a bit swifter.

    Otherwise, from what I can tell, this game rocks!

    How is the aging process in the game? If it's like the first one then I will pass.
