Fable 2 Development

   

Best RPG 2008

Published Monday, January 21, 2008 2:36 PM by Sam

Ok so 2008 has only just started - but Gamesradar has been so kind to already award Fable 2 with the "BEST RPG 2008" award!

"(...) in the spirit of giving, and giving awards, which is so popular this time of year, we present The Preemptive 2008 Game Awards. That’s right, we’re awarding this year’s best games in advance, and at the end of the year we’ll simply pretend to have forgotten that we ever wrote this article so that we can give out the real 2008 awards."

You can find out which game came second and third by checking out this page, oh and make sure you pay attention to the other awards as well.

Now ... fingers crossed aeh? Wink [;)]

Amen Brother. This and H3 are the 2 reasons why I want a 360. I'm actually more excited for F2 than I was for H3 because for H3 all I wanted was to see Master Chief finish the fight but for F2 there isn't a thing I'm not excited about. I'm looking forward to the dog, emperorship, etc.

There must have been some mistake. Surely they meant best RPG of 2009?

Listen, I personally think that Fable TLC was truly an amazing game. The gameplay was awesome, the graphics were beautiful, and the storyline was not particularly creative but worked very well nonetheless. If F2 is really going to do everything it promises, (growing towns, family, all that...), than I totally agree with that award.

Well done Fable 2 team.  You've already outdone youreselves.  It was already the brain child of the best game since Fable TLC came out.

Fable has always been my favorite game since it game out....yes even trumping halo 3 in my mind.  This is shocking for many people i know.  Lionhead did a wonderful job on it and seeing all the the hardwork and dedication from the team back at Lionhead to the hardcore dedication of the fans.  lionhead deserves this award and hopefully this will up sales and encourage the fable 2 team to put everything they can dream of into fable 2!

The only game that may even stand a chance to Fable 2 is either Two Worlds 2 or Project Offset.  But I doubt that they will succed.
