That's subjective I suppose.

I think everyone will be disappointed by how choppy it is though.

Installed on the HHD?

I am going to get it regardless, but this comes as a disappointment

I installed the game on a memory stick, which works just as well as a HDD installs.

You know what, I'm going to forgo getting it. I remember I was all excited about Halo: CEA but it turned out to be pretty terrible. I mean, it was a great game back in the day but playing the same game with a pretty coat on it was not good at all. The gameplay was still decent but the frammerate was gamebreakingly bad at times.

And now it sounds like Fable: Anniversary is the same way so I'll be passing on that. I'll leave the game as a happy memory instead of ruining that memory and making me realize what a sub-par game it is by today's standards.

It really annoys me that they make these remakes of games but don't do anything to fix the problems that they have.

It runs like shit.

Looks great, but runs like shit.

If you dont mind the lack of achievements and the original Xbox look. Fable 1 is one of the games which the Xbox360 has fairly spot on backwards compatibility with. I've played through the game a few times and only encountered one odd thing which I would consider completely within reason for backwards compatibility emulation on the 360.

Fable 1 on the original Xbox still looks sexy as hell. For a 10 year old game.

-edit : I lol'd at the tagged game.

Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

Halo Anniversary had disappointing performence, but acceptable. I still prefer it much more than the original so I'm glad it exist even as is.

Fable Anniversary though... I'm shocked by how bad it performs. I was expecting a smooth 30 fps with minor dips.

Performence is important to me, so much so that I might even recommend the PC version of Fable over this. Not a big deal considering the original still looks great.

Same. Hopefully a quick patch can rectify this. Even so, how can Lionhead release this as it is?

You tried to warn me but noooo.... I'll listen next time. They'll patch this mess up eventually but QC dept. need to be 'fixed'. Like a dog.

PS: I'm not particularly bothered by low framerates and the game looks good but it's frozen my box up solid 5 times so far and I can't get my toon to run farther than about ten yards. Keeps getting caught on everything and will slow at every change in direction on the stick. The original had a little of that but it's really accentuated. Playable but annoying.
