I hope this doesnt foreshadow things to come...Although I think releasing a mini game to build stats/gold before a game comes out is an AWESOME idea!

I personally enjoyed the first one, ill have to check out the 2nd even if its not as great as the hype makes it seem.

 

I can guarantee that it doesn't.  We're talking the difference between a tiny collection of minigames released to get people talking about the game, and pander to the fans, and an open-world RPG. 

 

Fable 2 will be huge.
