Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

I was a pretty big fan of the first game, played it a couple times through in high school and then my roommate and I busted it out last year and played it high all the time. Anyone else ever get into it? Fable 2 comes out in October and I can't even handle how excited I am.

I remember hearing about it when it came out, but never did try it. Maybe I will try it out and see. It got rated 8.6 on Gamespot, so it should be worth getting. Thanks for the tip. :)

I played it, and was completely disappointed. I was so hyped for that game, with all the stuff they were gonna do. It ended up not delivering on like half the promises it was supposed to. Hopefully Fable 2 does a better job.

Ditto, Maker. I had a similar experience with the first game but it sounds like it should be better.

I am a big fan of the game, though I can see what you guys are saying about undelivered promises. For what it is worth, the games creator has admitted that they fell short of their promises, and are claiming that the new game will make up for it. We will see I guess. I for one am looking forward to its release.

Hmm...maybe trying this one by renting it first is an idea? :huh:

I always rent games before I buy them. I don't know about these other guys, but I love fantasy so I enjoyed Fable. It wasn't quite what I expected, but I'm thinking they'll get Fable 2 right and fix the small issues I had with the game.

I hope you are right. I am getting more and more curious about this game. Should be enough fantasy for anyone. :)

I was really excited about Fable when it was still named Project Ego... then it slowly became less and less cool. I was so disappointed that I didn't even rent the game. If Fable 2 lives up to the hype of the original, then it will be the only game I buy this year.

I think the developers learned a tremendous amount from their "shortcomings" in Fable. True, they did not deliver everything they had originally promised. However, it was still a fantastic game and they made the right move in releasing it when they did. They likely wouldn't have released the game for quite some time if they spent resources adding all their proposed content.

I highly suggest checking out both the development videos and the gameplay videos for Fable 2. It is going to be incredible and I am actually buying a 360 just to play it (Roommate had one in college so I still got my fix of Gears and Halo).
