Features:
Choices, consequences: Fable II expands upon the scope and depth of the Xbox® classic by creating a wider, more complex kingdom of limitless choices and consequences. Players can play as a man or woman, get married, have children, and live a life of their own design—all leading to different consequences.

For the right price, every house, hut, dungeon, and castle is for sale. See how the world grows and changes in incredible and unique ways in response to your decisions, as you rediscover Albion as if for the first time.
Fight with ease: The new combat system allows players to truly master hand weapons such as swords and maces, ranged combat weapons including crossbows and guns, and an entirely new magic system. Mix combat styles and become everything from a master swordsman to a skilled ranger to an evil magic wielder, each utilizing a different single button on the Xbox 360® controller.
A hero's best friend: Your canine companion acts as friend, compass and protector. Feed your pooch and he will love you unconditionally, creating a bond that sets up emotion-filled journeys throughout the magical world.
Experience the world together: For the first time in any next-generation RPG game, experience the expansive and immersive world with friends, using the new and exciting Dynamic Co-op Mode, bringing the long-awaited multiplayer function to the world of Fable II.

The Fabled Fable has Returned,
By
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
Fable 2 has finally been released from Lionhead studios, a producer that seems to only put out good Fable games. Fable 2 isn't so much a videogame with a real challenge or difficult bosses to beat. Fable 2 is more a story, that can be played and a life that can be lived digitally good or bad. The story begins with the player male or female living in Bowerstone as poor and destitute orphans, only to find an ancient music box that gets the main character shot, and his/her sister murdered. And thus begins the story of revenge and depending on the character a world that is either idyllic or fallen, with a great deal of pointless options to make your heroic or villanous mark on the world.As I stated before the game isn't really a game, it being so very easy to succeed and even death isn't a huge problem, considering there is re-spawning at the point of death with full life and no real penalty. Fable 2, however, is just fun and technically solid with solid presentation and decent progression. The combat system is good, with the character being able to use and upgrade melee fighting, ranged gun battle, or magic attacks. The transition between the fighting from melee to ranged being well done with specific experience being gained for the specific attack used. Fable 2 for all the lovely environments and interesting character development has some negatives. Mostly that the game offers no real challenge, nor does it really varies in the side-quests or jobs that the main character can undertake. An example of this is that in the game the player can take jobs like blacksmithing that makes money for the player easily then you can get all the armour, weapons, potions, property that you want or need, then there are the more mission based jobs and quests which are repeated constantly. The combat saves the game several times with this repetition. However, the game is still very enjoyable.

This review is from: Fable 2 (Video Game)
Le jeu avait l'air en parfaite condition mais il est arrivé quelques fois qu'il ''gèle'' au milieu d'une aventure. Le disque est aussi extrêmement bruillant, comme si la console cherchait à s'envoler!
