   This is one of The best rpgs ever made, and it is a remastered version so the graphics are better then The original.. You must play it.

The broader context of the game has to be kept in mind. There's so many elements that, despite being dated by today's standards, are responsible for the original Fable game being the success that it was. I think it was wise that the team took care in not tampering with the formula of the original. There's been some visual overhauls, the sound seems to have been reworked as well, and the menu system and controls have been updated accordingly. In general, I feel that Fable Anniversary does exactly what I've always wanted a Fable remake to do: don't mess the original game up but still make it look and sound amazing and maybe throw a few new features in for good measure. By that standard, this game has really exceeded my expectations. I'm only three or fours hours into the game, but having played the original game like crazy I can already tell that they've really hit that fine balance between staying authentic to the original while still bringing the game into the modern age. This is pretty much everything I wanted in a Fable remake.… Expand

   The audio is of an extremely high quality. The graphics even remastered still look old but definitely serviceable and I never found any game breaking glitches.
   
   The story is fun, a classic fantasy story of boy becoming a hero, with tons of humour.
   
   You get a chance to play the character from early childhood and after disaster strikes you become a hero. It is up to you if you wish to become a "good" Hero or an "evil" Hero.
   
   Definitely recommended if you enjoy fantasy rpgs with a good sense of humour.… Expand

It is notThis is the first, and probably best, of the Fable series. Unfortunately there are also lots of bugs and a few poor design issues. It is not simply a matter of recompiling code to bring it up to X360. The system is different than the original Xbox and some adjustments are needed but it doesn't appear that the devs bothered to change anything other than update the graphics. The most obvious place this occurs is with the pub games. Most are timed and the X360 controls aren't quick enough to handle the tight timing requirements. You basically have to resort to cheating to win them. The card pair games is pretty much random as to whether you can win or not because the devs didn't seem to bother play testing it first. The coin golf games use physics that is inconsistent even within strokes of a single game. Overall the pub games didn't transition well and the game suffers because of it.
   
   There are larger bugs as well. Later in the game it would start to freeze when multiple spell effect sounds occurred at the same time. This could happen within minutes of starting the game or after an hour. A hard reset of the system was required.
   
   Yet another issue was with the graphics. In the coin golf games you had to alter your view angle otherwise you'd be looking at the surface of a glass. But this extended beyond the pub games into the world as well. On several occasions people were walking sideways through the world.
   
   If you've never played Fable on Xbox or PC then this is a pretty good game but accept the fact that the devs put minimal effort into it to port it to X360 while they work on the next game in the series.… Expand

   Love the game, it's a great a classic but have to give it a 6 besides the 9/10 I would usually give it because of how clunky it feels to play,Love the game, it's a great a classic but have to give it a 6 besides the 9/10 I would usually give it because of how clunky it feels to play, beat on my XBox One X back in 2020 and the frame rate felt like it was between 15-25 most of the time, it just felt so clunky but I put up with it, now I went back to it on my Series X and it's still the same, this is a classic that deserves a remake but I doubt it'll happen :(
   Just can't recommend this game as it is right now due to the bad performance but if you can get pass that it is a very good game.… Expand

   controls are tedious,stupid ui inventory designed for controllers when the game "fable lost chapters" uses your mouse pointer to navigate your inventory. it is a step back from the original game than a step forward.
   
   AGAIN, AVOID THIS GAME!… Expand
