I never said it was better then Fable 1 and I agree but for as for Fable the Journey it was well done for a kinect game and is story focused

[SirJamesIGamerfuzion]

first of all it out and second the controls for the game work 95% of the time and I even did a full walkthrough so for the people who hate just to hate will act like it sucked when in truth it's a great game not saying it's better then Fable 1 or 2 but it's a really good kinect game

Fable 2+ are ok games but I wish lion head would go back to what fable one was which my favorite of all 2 felt to gun focused 3 gun and dog and the part I liked about fable one was the guild of heroes, that it had guns and arrows but was heavily focused on swords and magic.

The problem for developers is, though, that if they don't achange a series then people complain about a lack of innovation, that they're afriad to try new things, that there's nothing new. Call of Duty is the prime example of that. But if they do change things, then people complain it's different and that they should never have changed anything.

It's also important to remember Fable: The Journey is a spin-off, not a direct sequel. It's supposed to be very different from the main games.

You guys are saying it's bad because of the change its made from it's predecessors, but if you look at it as a stand alone game. It's pretty damn good for kinect.

[Nintendoman]

They don't even consider the reviews other games have gotten. They exist in their own little vacuum. And besides, Fable: The Journey and Infamous 2 are completely different games, stop your complaining.

Guys lets remember, its a kinet game. as far as kinet games go, like it or not, it IS good. They did a good job reviewing it. Just because you don't like kinet doesn't mean you should vote the video negatively. you should vote the video based on how the review was.
Im going to be honest, i DONT like kinet. however, if i did, i would buy this game.

[IkoLx]

I don't think the hate on this is focused on the kinect. It's focused on fable itself. The fact that the series kept going backwards after the first one got some players frustrated and now instead of developing a fable game that could remove the dislike tastes of fable 2 & 3, they bring out a fable kinect. so basically it's just bad timing with consumers for this game release.

Latest discovery in RE6: there's two Ada Wong. One is genuine and one is manufactured.

[mexicanboots]

OMG!!!! HE HAS A HORSE!!! I WANT THIS GAME NOW!!! <3

[MarkyDav]

So much rage from so many people who forget that there was once more to games than CoD.

[MrFromobile]

The main problem with this game appears to be the controls, as tom didn't have a problem with the controls than a positive review in entirely justifiable. Also stop whining just because its not a usual fable and you really like fable 1

[graleh]

Was it fun to play? I am thinking about buying it..

[filopride]

Yep, exactly why those two games I consider the best in the series. MW2 and MW3 were downright funner in the first few hours you play it, but as you learn the ridiculous deaths you receive from other people, you realize that it is frustrating and just makes you go "WTF?!?! I got him! That was BS!" COD 4 and Black Ops never frustrated me so it kept me playing. However, I feel that Blops' sniper still feels a little broken.

[beastdude]

unless you state that you've at least played the demo, you can't comment on it's controls. i've played the demo and it works fine, and i hardly have space to use kinect properly anyway. definatly a game i'll be getting.

[Ziplinz]

Fable The Journey, rated SK for small kids. Fable The Lost Chapters is still my favorite. No other Fable game has topped that one in my opinion. Even though it was a bit over hyped.

[YuukiShinosaki]

you guys do know that there reviewing a Kinect only game? this game would suck if you could/needed to use a controller. this is a great game for Kinect. and about hating that its a "On a Rail" game, just think for a min, how you YOU have made a game that you use only the Kinect sensor?

[ImIParaJohnnyImI]

Don't hate me for saying this, but at first, I despised the thought of a kinect fable but then I played the demo and I gotta say, it was actually one of the better kinect games that I've played. I actually liked it :P

[takebackgotham]

Why so much hate for Fable 3 and Fable the Journey?

[Wolf_Vantage]

The score should be: "8.0 for a Kinnect game", where 2 points = 1 point for a regular game. Therefore 4.0 for anyone above the age of 6 and below the age of 60 ;]
