It's hard to talk about Fable III without heaping more and more praise on it. It's one of the best games of the year and one of the richest role-playing experiences to hit the Xbox 360. It begs to be played by anyone who appreciates a game that is expertly produced in almost every area.

Fable III is most memorable not because it makes you laugh, but because it also makes you care. If a spouse gets carved up in your absence, you'll feel pangs of guilt. When your dog saves your bacon during a fight, you'll feel pride.

At first I was sceptical and a little bit disappointed, many technical changes irritated me at first (menues, inventory, map, skill system etc.) and also some bad reviews, I almost quit playing. But after few hours the spirit caught me and I had one of my best experiences since years. Many great quests and the dialogues... world class.
I definitely will replay the game sooner or later. Also the DLC's are worth playing, Traitor's Keep great content and locations, I feel bad for people who missed that after playing Fable 3.

Following up from Fable 2, this was a very exciting and anticipated release at the time of release. Fable 3 is worthy of multiple playthroughs as it added a "choices" mechanic into the game that changes the outcome and even the environment. After the hype died down a year or so after release, hindsight showed that it wasn't quite as good as Fable 2, but certainly still an amazing game that i will always return to.

With an endearing, dynamic world and pure unadulterated adventuring, it will leave you with fond memories and a sense of accomplishment.

Revolution in story is not followed by a revolution in the game system – unfortunately. Nevertheless Fable III is a decent ending to the series. Although great freedom of act is not followed by great responsibility. [Dec 2010]

Maybe this is not the revolution that everyone was expecting, but Fable III is still a fabulous and enjoyable game. If you liked the previous entries in the series, this is a piece of software you should buy.

For all the game has got going for it, which is still a lot, Fable III is unable to transcend the sum of its parts and we're left to lament what could have been.

Fable III attempts to radically reinvent the franchise, a reinvention that fans neither wanted nor asked for. Instead of following on the success of the previous entries, Fable III tries to be something other than it is, but I don't think the developers were even sure what this is supposed to be.

It has all the ingredients for greatness but it's underbaked. It tells an engaging story, provides flexibility in relationships, and has great questing content. I love how reactive the world is to your choices. But the the third act is over in a flash and the simplified magic system is forgettable

Bad fable game. The story is boring and uninspiring, the characters are lame, and the cities and landscapes are all samey. This was a grind **** to get through, in a bad way. Why is 80% missions in a cave??

I pre ordered this because I bought into the Peter molyneaux hype, still unaware of his last two fable game promises. Needless to say it was extremely disappointing. Disappointing to the point of being a bad game. It IS A BAD GAME. It wouldn't have been if I wasn't so mislead end and lied to.
