Well, to take two recent games: Fable2 vs Xenoblade. I enjoyed both very much, but Xenoblade is the better game - hands down. Fable is a lot of button smashing while XB have strategies you have to consider. Both is just as linear: you got your main story and you got your side quests (XB has way more and varied side quests). XB has better controllers and a fantastic setting. Fable's in HD and looks great, but most of the time I kinda forgot about the main story and went about buying houses and fucking ladies.

fable is kind of terrible comparison to make.  That franchise more than any other is guilty of incorporating just the bare bones RPG elements onto an action game.  I would classify the fable games as an action/adventure instead of an RPG.
