Fable 2 preview – Xbox 360
Fable 2 fans should download the official Fable 2 magazine. This is an old Fable 2 preview, which you are welcome to read, but the Fable 2 magazine is a new preview and exclusive Fable 2 hands-on and screens.
Fable 2 is one of the most anticipated games on the Xbox 360, so naturally 360Zine has a new Fable 2 preview. The original Fable sold like a billion copies on the original Xbox (n.b. not actually true), so expectations are high on Peter Molyneux to deliver in Fable 2 what was promised for the first Fable. Which might explain why he and Lionhead are remaining quite tight-lipped on Fable 2. Will Fable 2 have guns? Will Fable 2 have online play? Can gamers play Fable 2 on PC? Will there be pets in Fable 2? Oh, wait, we can answer the last one! The GDC finally lifted the lid on some Fable 2 gameplay elements, including the much rumoured Fable 2 dog companion. Our new Fable 2 preview takes a look at everything that was revealed by Peter Molyneux about Fable 2 at the conference and the preview takes the time to debunk some of the incorrect rumours flying around the web about Fable 2 (like, the graphics, for instance, which are completely unfinished and stated as such, but which we’ve seen many sites having a go at – d’oh, but anyway, if you like Fable 2, read the preview, it’s fun). This is 360Zine's second preview of Fable 2 in the free Xbox 360 magazine (see below for a link to the first preview).

Are we the only ones to have forgiven Peter Molyneux for overstating the gameplay features of the original Fable? Every time the legendary developer gets up to speak about the much-anticipated Fable 2, he has to express mea culpa for what was lacking in Fable, and so it was at the recent GDC (Game Developers’ Conference) where Peter showed off some titbits from Fable 2.
What is so strange about the Fable anti-hype is that the original was a
great game. It wasn’t a pup. For some, it
was the best game on the original
Xbox, with stunning graphics and
some interesting gameplay techniques
that hadn’t been seen in RPGs before.
