Worth It?????

Post by Ideal Maxima »

my friends wants to know if Fable is worth spending $50 on. I have it myself, but my Xbox is having problems and I haven't had a chance to play it, and I don't want to lend the game to my friend either... he's not the type of guy who gives things back in a hurry... anyway , is Fable worth $50?????

i beat it in about 20 hours, i guess it was worth it, kinda disappointing with all the hype that was put out over it, didnt really meet up to what i though it was gonna be like.
you know what they say about all work and no play...
It's totally not worth the monetary rewards!!!

Hahaha you BOTH suck I did it in five (two frickin' sittings, that was it). That having been said...

I don't think this game's worth fiddy bucks. I would pay about 30, maybe 35 but any higher, and I'd probably be inclined to buy something more practical. (like a bunch of frappucino's or somethin' :D )

although it does have a short storyline it is the type of game that is still fun to play over and over again. i definitly think it is worth the 50 bucks despite what the others think.

btw laughing at eachother and comparing the times it took you to beat the game is very immature and does not help answer the question :rolleyes:

There are a number of fine RPGs that cost half of Fable or less, and offer far greater playing times. The game is competent but not inspired, and the playing time simply isn't worth anywhere near the asking price, IMO.

Hell yes! Fable is the "Halo 2" sort to speak, of RPG's for the Xbox. I work at Blockbuster so I can continulously rent it out to myself until I get the extra bling to buy it.

I love the game I truly do but I don't think it's worth the $50 bucks... I got a copy of it for like $5 buckroos (I hope I can actually say this) but truth be told... if I had the $50 buck in hand and could spend them as I wished I'd buy it just for the heck of having the original... the game's short and it disappointed a whole lot of ppl but the fact is that it disappointed them because of the high expectations they had... it's a good game.. it always depends on the kind game you are looking for... this is a fairly easy game but you can play it for quite a while if all you want it do chill out and walk :D .. to add my two cents to the how long how short... it took me about 12 hours the 1st time around to defeat Jack but played it for up to 54 hours just walking around and killing ppl :p

So if your buddies got the $50 bucks to spend them in frappucino then they would might as well buy the game.
