After nearly four years of waiting, Project Ego, a.k.a., Fable, is now available to play.  I decided early on not to be consumed from the enormous hype that this game enjoyed.  After all, I was really excited about Devil May Cry 2 when it first...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Fable is exactly what all the hype was about.  this is a game where choices are everything.  Each and every choice you make will affect who and what you will become.

In short, this is one fun game, but it does not live up to the hype.  I think if this was not so overhyped and not a Molyneux, it would have gotten much higher scores.  One big drawback is the inordinately looooong loading times.  Unfortunately, you...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

This game promised a lot and did not deliver due to incredibly weak gameplay!  In many ways, it is unique, and in other ways, it tries to copy the likes of Morrowind and KOTOR, and fails.  First of all, the game lacks content.  For a game that...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

The whole concept of a game where "Every action has a consequence" is a great one.  This game does have elements that add up to this statement, but I feel that it didn't do enough.  Things that bugged me were the fact that even though I had chosen...    [ Read The Full Review... ]
