Fable III screenshots for looking at photo

Usually, Lionhead only gives us between one and three screenshots, and we're supposed to be grateful. I have no idea what we've done to deserve this veritable bounty, but the latest batch contains a full ten images, making this possibly the biggest Fable III gallery in history. 

So far, Fable III is looking a lot less bright and cheerful than its predecessor. I hope that's just a case of Lionhead only showing us the dark stuff, as Fable's brightness is a welcome break from all the dark and gritty stuff. I guess we'll have to see. 

I've always loved the Fable games in theory, but in practice they keep managing to slightly disappoint me. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for Fable III. Third time's a charm!

Don't buy into the hype again. Fable 2 should be a reminder.

This. This is my exact thought, and the reason why I'm holding off on pre-ordering, exclusive crap be damned. The experience of Fable II wasn't horrible...it just left me wanting more and feeling like things weren't implemented to their full potential.

And that ending? If Fable III ends up getting well-reviewed, we better not see another ending like #2. Without spoilers: Every time I think about maybe playing through the game, I am reminded of that and turn to something else.

Fable 1 was supposed to be the best RPG of all time (the previews blew everything out of the water) - it was an "ok at best" hack and slash.

Fable 2 was supposed to be - good - it was awful.

Fable 3...is a rental.

The Fable games are highly overated... There was no substance in Fable I or II, it's like overcooked pasta; pale, bland, and sloopy.

@ Magnalon - I disagree! I'm not even going to rent Fable 3 =P.

I'll be the one person in this thread who enjoyed Fable II and is unashamedly looking forward to Fable III. I'm cool with being that guy.

I like Fable and I enjoyed both 1 and 2, but I admit that neither lived up to the claims made by Lionhead....but few games truly meet the wild hyperbole created by marketing teams and although they weren't the best RPGs they were solid, fun, and just long enough to provide substance while being short enough to fit into an adult lifestyle. I'll be happy if they offer improved co-op (hugely important to me as a gamer - not to be confused with pvp which I am growing bored with) featuring independent cameras for players and the ability use 2nd-player-created characters....

Right there with ya, bro.

Jesus Christ, man, we all fucking get it; the PC has great graphics, cheaper games, free online, mods, K/M, etc. You're not telling anyone anything they don't already know, so what is the goddamn point of writing the same goddamn thing in every goddamn thread?

Real neat Pete.

My main problem with Fable 2 was the strange way it was incredibly polished in some respects, but incredibly rough in others. The story always wanted to show\do something new but the gameplay was getting old by the third hour (of five or so).

I really do hope Fable 3 fixes these problems. This series has the potential to be something truly awesome but it's wasted every time.
