For many role-playing game fans with tight schedules, it can be tough to dedicate dozens of hours to a game before the next one catches your eye. Downloadable titles are known to be easy to pick up and shorter in length so that you don't have to commit your evenings and weekends to beat them.
That's likely why you won't find too many RPGs on Xbox Live Marketplace or the PlayStation Network, but Jehanne Rousseau, CEO and producer of Faery: Legends of Avalon, hopes that there will be a place for her upcoming RPG, where you play as a customizable male or female fairy who has set out to save the dying kingdom of Avalon.

Anyone underwhelmed about BC titles lately have to understand that MS is probably waiting for BC blowout during their E3 press conference. Black Ops, Bioshock and other big titles have already been confirmed for BC at some point. Read Dead and other long rumored. I'll be very surprised if we don't see many of the most requested BC games announced at E3.

Despite the game’s attractive look, its utter lack of originality is soon wholly apparent. Pass on this particular fairy tale and you’ll exponentially improve your odds of living happily ever after.
