This is xtraordinary lol. i was lucky enough to be a co creator and you will be amazed at some of the developments from the previos game. we set it 500 years in the future post industrial revolution which opened up enormous opportunities. i wont go into the game play and graphics as i will come across as arrogant but the team has been spectacular and created a visual world that is possibly the most enhanced on the 360 engines. enjoy.

Rated - 5 starsrelease date wrong

Diamount from Luton, England , 26/09/2008

This is not a review about the game but about the release date, the game is released on the 24th in Europe however the above release is set for the 30th November which is incorrect.

A customer from Chippenham , 29/10/2008

I like many others have waited in anticipation for this game to come out for a while. Unfortunately, I have been left disappointed. It might seem strange that I say this as this game has had nothing but rave reviews but here I shall share my thoughts.

I found the main story line to be very weak. I could not feel any kind of connection with the character and found myself not really caring about getting revenge at all. All of the gimmicky little things which were fun at first started to become very tiresome and boring. On top of all this I found the game too easy.

All of this is of course my opinion and its up to you to make up your own mind of course. But if like me you are a massive fan of TES IV: Oblivion and are hoping this game will be similar then you will probably end up feeling let down like I have as this game never comes close to knocking Oblivion off the top spot of Fantasy games.

Rated - 4 stars"4 out of 5 ain't bad"

A customer from Sutton Coldfield , 21/11/2008

To start off the game has a nice easy beginning, and it sets up the story well.

Wandering around as a child whom of which gets to choose his OWN destiny is something altogether new.

Depending on how you act throughout the game, your world changes. People either live in comfortable housing or they live in squalor because you've decided to be an evil git.

There are many different options throughout the game that make this game, let’s say, 'Open plan'.

However there is this constant nagging feeling that when you reach the end of the main story arc, it all finishes off with the same conclusion and no matter what choice you make at the end everything is how it should be, simple as.

Lionhead made a brilliant effort to make sure the world changes as you go along the story... But they never allowed the world to change after evil was vanquished. So it felt as though some more needed to be done in regard to the conclusion, keep the game Open.

There are a few glitches to work out of the game, especially after you've completed the main story arc. Everything seems to go wrong and topsy turvy. Hopefully a new patch will come out soon.

Also, 1 achievement does require you to spend money on Xbox live arcade... Bad move Microsoft / Lionhead... We don't like having to pay for our achievements.

Overall, very impressed with the game, it kept my arse on the sofa for a good long time.

Keep up the good work, and I look forward to (perhaps) Fable 3.
