Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
For players who have yet to experience the epic story of Fable II, Microsoft Game Studios is making it easy to jump into all the excitement of the critically acclaimed title with the launch of Fable II: Game of the Year Edition, which sees the mystery and intrigue of the "Knothole Island" and "See the Future" Game Add-ons bundled with the full game.
Fable II is available exclusively on Xbox 360 and is rated PEGI 16+.
 Some cities are huge, with a complex infrastructure for you to exploit |
 Acting for good or evil can have a permanent physical effect on your features |
 Guns are commonplace, but swordfighting is still vitally important |
 Not all your enemies are human in the world of Fable |
Set in the land of Albion 500 years after the first game (such that primitive guns are now in widespread use), you can either seek to rid the land of evil or conquer the realm for yourself. The game features an all new combat system, allowing you to use a range of melee and ranged weapons, while death brings only a loss of experience.
But the game need not be about fighting at all if you don’t want it to be. You can buy property and become a mayor, or get married and have children. Many games call themselves role-players, but here the nature of your role is entirely up to you.
Key Features- Game of life: Mould your own character and watch them grow into adulthood, their features changing according to the deeds they perform for good or evil.
- Virtual reality: Will you be a charming evil doer or an antisocial hero? The role you play is entirely up to you as you follow the game’s story or ignore it to do your own thing.
- New age of combat: Wield a huge range of weapons, including swords, axes, and newly available muskets. Or master a range of magic spells with up to 80 different varieties available.
- Team up: Invite a friend into your game at any time and play with them in co-operative mode.
- Best friend: Every character gets a chance to own a pet dog, one who will help you to find your way through the game world, attack enemies, or just be a good friend.
Headed by industry veteran Peter Molyneux, creator of the famous Populous and Theme Park, Lionhead are one of the UK’s best known developers. They were bought by Microsoft in 2006 and now produce games such as Black & White, The Movies, and Fable only on Xbox 360 and PC.

Fun:
Fable 2 is an outstanding game the visuals alone are breath taking.
The gameplay is easy and enjoyable, not to mention the world you play in.
I already own the add ons included in this addition from XBox 360 live and they add to the game no end.
Both are excellent and different. If you dont buy off the online market place or your a first time buyer this is for you.
Happy purchase and gaming.

Fun:
All I can say is that the game is simply amazing. It has tonnes of replay value, good graphics, but... I can't put my finger on why it is so good though. Sadly, I leant it to my friend a few weeks ago and he has "lost" it. However, I didn't have any of the DLC so I might get him to buy me this one! xD

Fun:
Fantastic action RPG. Got into this after seeing nephew playing it. Enjoyable, with easy to use controls and lots of missions to complete. It's a great way to relax after a few hours of mayhem on shooters. Graphics are colourful and clear. Could have done with a proper multiplayer mode really, as the co-op style is a bit flawed and the camera angle isn't always easy to work with as if you are with the main character in the game you have to stay within a short distance of him all the time, so not a true multiplayer or even co-op - which is a pity, as there would be great potential here if the designers had thought it through. (This issue has been addressed in Fable III and now works much better.) But really good fun nonetheless, for all ages, and well worth the money. Had to visit a few walkthrough websites from time to time for help with some of the puzzle aspects, but nothing to onerous. Has all the add ons too (so no need to pay extra on xbox for the DLC packs, as they are all here). Real value for money. 10/10

Not worth it
I think I preferred the first Fable, the humour was throughout the game, the demon doors more enjoyable to say the least. I am not saying Fable 2 is a dire game. Read more
