Who knows, I'm not clicking to give them hits, I hate reviewers that can't do their job properly.

Some people just dont give certain games love. This is why aggregate sites are good because they measure the quality of a game based on all its reviews and not certain biased ones.

Apparently so.

themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/editorials/reviews/8249-Review-Fable-3

From the Escapist:

Bottom Line: Fable 3 is the best Fable yet. It's mature and thought provoking, with a final act that will genuinely surprise and confound you. It could've been a masterpiece, but its many technical problems bring it down.

Recommendation: It's frustrating, but play it anyway, if only for the wonderfully quirky quests and the way your choices genuinely pull at your conscience. Or just to kick the chickens, whatever.

Review states the game is plagued with heavy technical problems. Sounds like Fable 2 all over again.

IGN - 8.5 ( I wonder if they didn't change to 0.5 scale if it'd have got close to II's 8.8?

IGN UK sorry, 1 point under 2's score.
