"Okay, now the initial orgasm has worn off..."

Is Fable really worth getting taking into consideration the next few months?

I have the DS on pre-order, Halo 2 and Prince of Persia 2 on pre-order, my US PS'TWO' arriving this week with KillZone, GTA San Andreas and Xenosaga 2 on pre-order as well as Metal Gear 3 and Gran Turismo 4.

I don't want any 'ums' or 'ahhs', I just want a straight forward, honest, quick and dirty paragraph to sum up the game, both pros and cons and whether or not you actually think it is worth getting.

Cheers!

Well this isn't anything to do with story or plot and stuff, so I guess its ok to mention - once you beat the game, if you make your way to the Temple of Avo, you should come accross one of those stone troll things. So if you're looking for some decent fodder to get experience from, hes pretty good to take out a few times. Plus the pleb traders in the area tend to flock to him and get completely murdered, so there tends to be a few things to pick up after you've finished the fight. ;-))

I've seen pics of charcters with glowing eyes and other crazy stuff like that, really gotta get me a pair of those.

Evil mage would be easier since you can get xp off all the merchants/fools etc. I definately have to give that a go so I can get more powerful spells earlier.

I'm on the good path though, for now, which means that 8+ Hobbes currently makes for a pretty decent scrap. :)

I intend on being an evil Mage next.

Was messing around with the time slowing down earlier, that's excellent, I can only imagine how useful it'd be if you levelled completly.

S***!

Indeed, I would have the most powerful stick in all the land. All would fall to their knees and cower at the sight of my deathbringing twig.

Ahahaha!

Yes there's LOADS of farming to do. ;)

I'm sure if you power up your character ansh vae cool non-combat skills you can make it through with a stick. :)

Shame you can't augment it though.

Fable sounds like Harvest Moon.

Evil game's fantastic.

Merchant: "Aha! Thanks for saving us from the bandits hero"

Hero: "No problem, I wanted to run you through myself"
