Pretty decent scores, although I expected better. Really looking forward to playing it.

 

I don't see how anyone could have expected much better scores than this, to be honest.

About the expected IGN review score :

"I was rather looking forward to finding out what probably the most credible review around this forum thought of Fable 2"

You see, this is subjective.

Yeah, but you don't understand. I think Xponent was trolling, and trying to rain on the parade of most of us, because Fable 2 got great reviews. Sure it's subjective that around 9/10 average are "great" reviews, but apparently you can only find one person who thinks those reviews are too low, and that is Xponent. I simply questioned him.

On that note, I dislike you libellule. You have made it your mission to follow me around and piss me off ever since the Fallout 3 topic. Stop responding to my posts and avoid any further contact with me in the future and I'll do you the same service.

...and for the record, Starcraft and myself predicted the game to average around 8.5-9. We might be the biggest Fable fanboys on this forum. We certainly didn't have unbelievably high expectations. 10/10 from eurogamer surpasses my wildest expectations, though.

As for the ign score, it's great. I still think it carries the most credibility "around this forum."

For me though, I tend to use Gametrailers, IGN, Xplay, and Gamespot, and see what their general concensus is. I have a feeling that they will all say the game is great though, because it apparently is.
