The story begin's as your a young boy or girl who is doing small odd job's to obtain 5 gold coins to purchase a magical music box. As you collect the gold coin's you begin to notice that the decision's you make effect the people and the world around you. As you continue playing through the story you'll quickly realize even the clothes you wear have an effect on everything around you.
In the very beginning you meet a few major characters in Lionhead Studio's Fable 2. One character in particular is man's best friend who is with you throughout the story. Our furry little friend has his own unique personality based on the choices you make throughout the story. Lionhead Studio's really hit the nail on the head with the implementing of the Dog into this title. The Dog is just as important to you in Fable 2 as your sword and ranged weapons because he finds many interesting treasures for you throughout your journeys in Albion, all the while preforming his own antics based on how your playing. Much like man's best friend, each town will have its opinon of you based on many factors in the game.
Although the main story isnt very long about 8 to 10 hours if you play it through continueliously you become so engaged in the plot of this game that it really doesnt effect you very much. But I must admit the ending left me stunned and wanting more... Alot More!
All in all the combat system in this title was very easy to learn and pick up being a hack and slash style with special moves and abilities. The magical abilities left alittle bit to be desired but that wasnt something that stopped you from enjoying the game. Graphically the game was absolutely beautiful!
For big time RPG fans and new comers to the genre it is a must buy for any 360 owner. Very few flaws in this game have given it many good ratings, Lionhead definitely hit a homerun with this game. It brought a few new and exciting concepts to RPG's as well as amped up some older ones to bring you an awesomely fun and crazy game that can be enjoyed for many many all nighters. This is a game you have to atleast rent and experience some awesome adventures.
