A Couple More Fable Reviews

Fable is a game that demands to be enjoyed and savored. Take your time and explore, see all there is to see and do all there is to do, or just go for a walk and rack up the experience for a while. I know this review may seem a bit lop-sided and leaning towards the negative aspects of the game, but Fable has almost an indescribable quality to it that makes it so enjoyable. It's wonderful to see your character change as you develop him, to see people run from you or praise you, and just to wander around experimenting with different things. If Fable were expanded a bit further and these negatives ironed out it could have been something legendary, one of the greatest games of all time. As it is, however, it's still a great game and a wonderful experience. If you didn't fall for the hype, that is.
And the second is at Gaming Target with an overall score of 9.1/10:
By no means has Fable reached the hierarchy status its developer's Lionhead Studios and Big Blue Box Studios were hoping for. Though, instead of dreaming for the big, the bald, and the beautiful, I think what gamers should be doing is halting their search for the stars and look under their very noses. Fable has finally gotten its butt out of the development door and into store shelves. It's out there and it's waiting to be played. No, we didn't get everything. What we got is only just one of the best damn RPGs the Xbox has to offer. And that's fine by me.
