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.

Hehe, I remember talking to you on Messenger last summer about doing stuff in Morrowind.

Morrowind rocks, I might buy the GOTY if it's going cheap.

I'm still playing Morrowind, but I'm hoping Fable will be better. I've stopped reading any previews, I don't want to built it up too much.

Morrowind was highly enjoyable from the very beginning for me. It was and still is revolutionary - the scope and freedom are to this day unmatched.

Morrowind is a marmite game.

You either loved it or hated it.

I quite liked it.

It's the single most boring game I've ever played.

If I wanted to spend 50 hours levelling my character up in a computer game so he can somehow muster the strength up to kill a rat, I'd probably shoot myself as I'd just be a big waste of oxygen and organs.

It's rubbish, there's no way around it.

Yeah.

Because this'll actually be enjoyable to play, instead of being the dullest game I've ever had the misfortune to purchase.
