'Fable 3' Review

The second section is arguably the best part of Fable 3 . The king has been overthrown and all those people who've received promises from the hero come calling. The hero can live up to their end of the bargain or choose to break the promise in order to earn more money. While it seems like a simple ‘Good v. Evil’ character decision, it’s not black and white. A large amount of money is required to defend Albion from an outside foe. These choices go beyond the standard ‘Good v. Evil’ choices found in most games like this, and it really adds to the experience of the game. Players finally will feel like every choice they make can/will affect the world in some way. In turn, the third section of the game is directly affected by choices in the second. So depending on the choices made in the first sections, the world of Albion will be quite different at the end of the game. In the interest of not spoiling major plot points, I won't go into further detail about the third sect

Additionally, the dog can help you form an emotional bond with it the more you explore. And if the world is going to be a vast world, having that canine pal by your side during exploration may make for a less lonesome journey. And don't hate me for saying this, but I feel like having your dog capable of being killed might make for more intense battles in which you fight to defend

Part of the enjoyment of open-world exploration is that there's potential to hide things away. Being able to visit a library at the Guild would be great for lore-hungry players. And in Fable, players were able to break in and sneak around villagers' houses and rob them. But I'd like to be able to see character backstories, so even though robbing is an evil deed in itself, the possible guilt from robbing someone could potentially make you feel even wo

Stealth game Thief: The Dark Project takes a turn for the weird in the game's seventh mission, The Haunted Cathedral. In this mission, Garrett visits an area called the Sealed Section, which has been cut off from the rest of the city due to a violent zombie outbreak. Sure enough, players encounter zombies and other supernatural entities when making their way through this particularly spooky mission, which helps it stand out as one of the most memorable and scariest in the entire g

Those are the games that we would love to see move from hushed whispers to concrete properties approaching release, but with more games in production than we can possibly imagine, we could be off the mark. Let us know if you think there are any secret projects or rumors that we overlooked, and we'll bring you news on all of them and more from E3 2

The first thing to know about Fable 3 is that it's pure and simple fun. Traveling through the land of Albion is an enjoyable experience, interacting with the locals, completing quests, battling monsters and saving the day. The second thing to know is that Fable 3 is flawed in some key areas which prevents it from being an elite g

Half-Life 3 is one of the biggest mysteries in the gaming world today. Going even beyond that, Half Life 2: Episode 3 is one of the biggest mysteries in the gaming world today. While Valve has officially announced that they won't be making any more episodic content , the plans to make an Episode 3 were revealed long ago. As if to say it's never coming, Valve has it listed as arriving along with the Rapture on their Valve-Time development release schedule p

So here we are again, hoping that E3 will show us that Battlefront 3 may still have some life left in it. New interest in the Star Wars universe in the lead up to release of The Old Republic could make the title a more appealing one, not even considering the leaps and bounds in online multiplayer since the first title's release. Evidence isn't easy to come by, but don't bother telling us that it's wrong to h

He may have begun his life as a small protector of Vance, but thanks to her additions and refinements, the towering pet is nearly invincible, not to mention fearless. But its his loyalty we most remember (and his car-throwi

Whereas most of Half-Life 2 is a straightforward sci-fi Adventure games treasure maps, the city of Ravenholm is where the game ventures into horror territory and provides the franchise's scariest moments. Gordan Freeman reaches Ravenholm shortly after acquiring the Gravity Gun, which comes in handy when fighting off the headcrabs and zombies that are swarming the pl

There's no need to justify the announcement of Grand Theft Auto V as one of our most expected, but the sheer mystery surrounding the nature of the game can't be overlooked. While Rockstar took a break from the Grand Theft Auto franchise, they managed to release both Red Dead Redemption and L.A. Noire : two titles that are helping to redefine maturity in modern gaming. So with GTA 5 , can we expect the developers to return to the immature and crude roots of the series, or try something
