Forums - Microsoft - Fable 2 is going to be the best RPG of 2008. Easily.

starcraft, did you know that Gamespot gave it overall best of E3.

YEP!!!!

I think IGN gave it an honourable mention as well yes?  Though to be honest, I think they preferred Fallout 3.

too human is just, sorry i will keep my opinion to myself because you are not allowed to say anything negative about this game without a certain mod giving you the ban hammer.


i dont like the look of fallout and tales seems good. All in all i would say you are correct.

Fable 2 is easily the best RPG out this year by far, but saying that it doesnt have any decent competition. the only game close to competition is tales

but we still have not seen White Knight Chronicles yet, assuming that thing is going to be out this year.



Nah some Jprg:s can beat it.

We havent seen much from WKC in quite a while.  I doubt it will be out this year, and certainly not in the West.  Even if it was, Fable 2 will take it down.

I think the achievements are so brilliantly hilarious that will help, but I am still not sure whether I want that or Infinite Undiscovery more. For me, Mass Effect will probably be the best, but that probably does not count as it was released last year

I actually thought Fallout 3 would be Fable's closest competition. Tales would also be a good contender but in my book Fable 2 will get more playtime than Fallout (based on what I know). The coop is something I'm looking forward to.

More excited about Fallout 3 and Valkyria Chronicles. Fable 1 was a bit meh. I am not a massive WRPG fan though. The only ones I have truly loved are Baldur's Gate and Elder Scroll.

Just because something has no decent competition doesn't preclude it from being a damn fine product in and of itself.

To draw inspiration from a previous poster's avatar, when Tiger Woods is playing in his prime there's not a golfer in the world who can approach him. Does that mean he's mediocre just because there's no serious competition?

Do you honestly see any publication of note giving VC a shot at RPG of the year?  Fallout 3 maybe, but VC?
