Pretty decent scores, although I expected better. Really looking forward to playing it.

 

I don't see how anyone could have expected much better scores than this, to be honest.

About the expected IGN review score :

"I was rather looking forward to finding out what probably the most credible review around this forum thought of Fable 2"

You see, this is subjective.

Yeah, but you don't understand. I think Xponent was trolling, and trying to rain on the parade of most of us, because Fable 2 got great reviews. Sure it's subjective that around 9/10 average are "great" reviews, but apparently you can only find one person who thinks those reviews are too low, and that is Xponent. I simply questioned him.

On that note, I dislike you libellule. You have made it your mission to follow me around and piss me off ever since the Fallout 3 topic. Stop responding to my posts and avoid any further contact with me in the future and I'll do you the same service.

...and for the record, Starcraft and myself predicted the game to average around 8.5-9. We might be the biggest Fable fanboys on this forum. We certainly didn't have unbelievably high expectations. 10/10 from eurogamer surpasses my wildest expectations, though.

Sorry Zen, but you're jumping to conclusions I'm afraid. I've got nothing against Fable 2. In fact I've been awaiting its release, being such a fan of the original. All I did was simply state that the review failed to match my initial expectation. If you think that is trolling, I'd hate for you to be a mod.

Stop the spin man,

To say the truth, you have lost more time running after me, than the opposite.

Your the one that love to lost time picking fight with people, not me.

 

I'm not picking a fight with you, and in this thread you picked the fight. Even if I am wrong sometimes, I'm not into having a little guy setting on my shoulder telling me how wrong I am all the time. I don't like it bro. If we just ignore each others posts for a while, I think we'll be better off, so lets try it.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

aa confirmed, aaa potential.

I think when the 4/5 middleground casual reviewers who don't like to take chances with personal opinion start rolling in, we'll average somewhere around 8.65. Could get a couple of lucky bounces though and end up around 8.9.

It's easier to predict the weather, than half these idiots opinions, with the review system in its current state.

Whatever, you do what you want, and I do the same as always.

I'd hate for me to be a mod too. However, my beef was with your assertion that 9/10 aggregate is below your  expectations. What were your expectations. Saying crap like that without explaining it usually means either you are trolling/flamebaiting, speak english as a second language, or can't express yourself with written word.

Just explain your posts and you'll never be accused of trolling. It's usually not a good idea to say something negative about something everyone is excited about, in one sentence or less. Explain yourself, and it won't be misunderstood.

If you're gonna say, "bah below my expectations" or the like, just add a "because..." and it'll be gravy. Then you gave an opinion. You know what I mean. It's just common courtesy.

I KNEW this was about the French thing. Look bro, I'm sorry I was racist against France. I really am. Forgive me, please. Alright!?

Xponent was pretty clear in his little post.

Like you, he is a bit disapointing with some review score and he was expecting something higher.

Not like you, he was expressing what he truly feels.

LOL, not at all.

Even without the french thing, I disliked the way you threat people explaining them what they have to post and what they dont

that is all.

But, ok, I forgive you for the french thing lol.

As I've already stated, I expected between 9-9.5.

The thing is, you're the only one that jumped to that conclusion Zen. Obviously, you're a regular poster here, and I've noticed that you do have a tendency to jumpt to conclusions and read too much into things. I did state in my original post that I was looking forward to the game if you didn't notice, which should have been a hint to you that I don't hate on the game at all.
