REVIEW: Fable III

The original Fable for the original Xbox was one of the most enjoyable games I had ever played when it first came out.  Fable II was an ambitious game, and while it improved on some combat aspects, its story was pretty terrible.

Fable III is about the quest to become King.  Most games go on a rags to riches based storyline.  In this particular story, you begin as the Prince and strive to become the King.  This seems relatively believable, but also seems to downplay the importance and significance of your actions.

Let's look into how this game fairs.

This EVENT: Long, Strong (Down to get the friction on)

THE EVENT.  Wish I could mirror that 2nd 'E'.  I don't watch this show.  But while I'm watching the National Championship on CBS, I noticed The Event was airing on NBC.  I only saw 15 minutes of this show, it was the final 15 minutes of the season premiere.  I think there was maybe a single word spoken.  A plane disappeared.  It was like an anti-Lost.

How long can an event go for?  Really?  I also remember when Lost first came on I said, "How long can they actually be lost for?"  I eventually got over that. I remember when someone told me they were no long "lost", and got off the island.  Thought that was retarded.  Well, guess I still kind of did...  So I guess this "event" happened, now it's something like War of the Worlds?  Do people still watch this show?
