fable 2
On the Surfeit of Good Games
As Gabe & Tycho have so accurately pointed out, we find
ourselves in a dire situation - there are simply
too many good games to play. For a time I
thought I would be immune to this, but I too
have succumbed.
Are all three games I'm playing sequels? Yes, but that doesn't make them bad. In fact, I picked the three most promising titles to fritter away my precious spare time. All RPGs, but only one turn-based one. My interests have been steering more towards action RPGs in the past few years, and it is starting to show in the games I choose. But Mother 3 is so excellent - a dark, intense story-line presented in the fun, light style of Earthbound.
I finished the main storyline of Fable II (I picked the Love ending, by the way), and so most of my console time is now being devoted to Fallout 3.
