Not quite sure why mine is more Official than any other, but there you go.

I reall like the look of this game. I really want to like the actual game, but I'm worried.

I really wanted to like Morrowind, but I didn't have 50+ hours to put into it before I could just about manage to kill a rat. Is the same thing likely to happen here?

I'm much more of a "half an hour here and there" type gamer, rather than a "6 hours straight? That's nothing!" type.

Also, talk amongst yourselves about Fable, it's out 2 months before Halo 2 anyway...


EDIT:

As this thread gets longer it'll be more difficult to find the links I've put in, so I'll add them in here too:

[URL]http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=56279[/URL] for the Eurogamer.net preview - slightly more frank and shows some of the games possible faults...

[URL]http://previews.teamxbox.com/xbox/852/Fable/p1[/URL] for the Team Xbox one.

[URL]http://xbox.ign.com/articles/539/539090p1.html[/URL] for the IGN one.

TeamXbox and Xbox IGN are apparently putting the first reviews up at 10am PST today (Friday 27th), which seems to be 6pm UK time.

Nothing at all. Plus we could always use more screenshots of chickens getting kicked around. That's always fun.

Actually, I won't be able to look at it 'til wednesday, as I'm away for a long weekend. Like I already said.

Anyhoo, I'm really looking forward to this game, and I'm curious to know if it's going to live up to the hype - what's wrong with that?

First two reviews will be on IGN and Team Xbox.

Both apparently going up today at 6pm UK time. When I'll be on a train going away for the weekend. Buggger.
