Hero worship hits new heights in Fable II. Designed by legendary game maker Peter Molyneux, the follow-up to the hit Xbox role-playing game sports a smorgasbord of innovative new features, including a revamped combat system, co-op play and the world's most helpful canine companion.
Why It's Hot:
Molyneux isn't considered one of the best in the biz for nothing. The man behind revolutionary games like Populous, Black & White and Dungeon Keeper hit the jackpot with the first Fable (over 3 million copies), and based on Fable II's amazing list of features, there's a good chance he'll do it again. Plus, nobody talks a better game.
Why It's Not:
Sometimes, he talks too much. Molyneux has developed an annoying habit of under-delivering on his grandiose ideas. Though early looks at Fable II have been positive, there's still a decent chance it will come up short.
