yeah i saw the E3 gamer convention thing when they were talking about gears of war 2 and fable 2. fable 2 is gonna be live. one of the guys who made the game was showing everyone a demo of how the game works, and apparently people who are playing fable 2 on live will show up as little purple balls called ambion orbs (besides you, YOU appear as yourself obivously lol). to invite them to play co-op with you, just click on them and invite them to your party. no lobbies or anything.
and the first fable (i have fable: the lost chapters, which is the extnended one) was so amazing, i think it would still be pretty good if it came out tomorrow, even though the graphics aren't high-def and the regions are kinda small. but yeah, what made it so fun is that EVERY action you do, even weilding your weapon in certain towns, effected how people acted towards you and how they talked about you. in a lot of missions, like most RPG games, you can choose a good path or an evil path (example: when you defeat Jack of Blades the first time in the basement place of the heroes guild, you can either choose to kill your sister and keep the Sword of Aeons, or throw the sword into an abyss thing and save your sister). and if you steal from people a lot and kill civilians and guards, you get 'evil' bonuses/points and your morality becomes more evil, obviously. or if you kill a lot of monsters and choose the good paths in quests, you get 'good' bonuses/points and your morality becomes more uhh.. good. lol. and if you become REALLY evil or REALLY good, you either grow horns and your eyes become red/black, or you get a little halo over your head and butterflies fly around you.
as you can tell, i cant wait to get this game... maybe i'll even go to the midnight release.
