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.

Goatboy has a point, but Lionhead is the publisher. It's Big Blue Box who is developing it.

Looks excellent, Anyone got any links to some interesting previews/videos?

Foszy, yeah apparently they are reviewing it next month.

Goatboy has a point, B&W was massively over-hyped, and you ended up with so much micro-management you couldn't really enjoy the game.

Still, I'm looking forward to it, I just won't rush out and buy it on the first day...

I can't wait for this, sounds amazing. The only trouble is, i can't help but feel it will disappoint beyond belief because of all the expectations.
