For those who have been asking, Fable 2 is set a few hundred years after the events of Fable 1 so you don't need to have played the first to enjoy the second. There may be a few pieces of background information whos context is lost on you, but it won't have any effect on your ability to enjoy the game.
I also was one who had heard nothing about Fable 1 before playing it, and it wound up being one of my favorite original xbox games. Fable 2 is a definite first day purchase for me.
