Review fable lost chapters

Published July 22, 2008
4 out of 5 starsScore: 80/100
The Good: Lively, beautifully envisioned gameworld is fun to explore; interesting, if slightly shallow, morality system causes your character to evolve; outstanding presentation makes the game exciting to see and listen to; the lost chapters adds some great new quests, extending the storyline; budget price tag.

The Bad: Main quest is quite short and linear; combat system can be exploited, thanks to some overpowered spells; character interaction is shallow; the new content is stacked at the end, forcing fable players through the old stuff again.


The Bottom LineIt's a borrow game. You'll be easily able to get through everything once in a single rental, maybe twice. It's worth noting that it's only $20, so it's not THAT much more expensive to buy, but there are better budget games.Also, if you've played the original Fable, don't bother. The additions are small, and mostly tacked on to the end, when your character is so strong that you'll breeze through them anyway.
