Fable?
I've got a few friends that like Fable. Here's the exact words one of them said to me. "Fable's a good game if you can accept it for what it is. A decent hack and slash." ...

Fable?
Yeah, this game isn't funny, but I can't think of a game I've ever played that I thought, "Wow, this is really funny." Except Grobnar in NWN2. So i don't think humor should be a big selling point of any game, and Fable's is pretty ignorable as with most games.

Me and about three other people on this forum liked it. I think Hurly was one of them.

The GTA4 objectively unbias game review from someone who care about gaming
I don't think there's still that problem, at least it's fixed enough so you don't notice it at least.

The GTA4 objectively unbias game review from someone who care about gaming
I'm currently on Phil's mission where I have to drive him to the boathouse, and the sob keeps getting killed there (4x already). I really wouldn't mind replaying the mission, as I love shooting things up, but it's the bloody long drive there that's frustrating me. I really wish there was something I could spend all my money on. I checked the internet to see if I could buy any cars otherwise not available in the city (such as the Cheetah, I still haven't seen a Cheetah!), but as it turns out the car site is totally useless, since you can't even buy any car, not even those that are shown. I'm pretty sure they don't have Cheetahs in this game. They gave the Turismo a more Ferrari look that the Cheetah used to have, and just got rid of the Cheetah.

I'd give it more than a 7.5

Repetitive missions: Drive here. Pick up item/person. Drive item/person here. Kill enemies. Receive money. Driving controls: It really isn't so much the controls, it's just that the cars skid and slide all over the place. Shooting: Just because it's an improvement doesn't make it good, the auto-aim is off at times. Save system: Again, just because they improved from the other games doesn't mean its any good. Checkpoints are a must for games like this, I mean, I had to do all the pointless driving halfway across the city to get to the bank and then load all those bank robbery cutscenes like 4 times. 7.5/10 The driving is perfect.

What the crap? What do you mean by repetitive missions? Driving controls are fantastic and realistic. Unless you mean the actual buttons you use to control driving, in which case it's just regular racing game controls, and I'm pretty sure you can change them anyway. Shooting is a super improvement over all the other games. Cover and the ability to control where you shoot the person on their body. Unless you mean that actual buttons you use to shoot, but I don't understand how they could be bad. Save system is the same as all the games except for the fact that they added auto saves, so it's just better. You could shut the game off and come back to after the last mission. 10/10

Yeah, if you need body armor for any of the missions besides the bank one you just aren't taking advantage of cover as well as you should be.

Ex-Cop gets Jail Time
That's kind of ridiculous. I mean, it could potentially be alright if it's only increased in a case where they are using thier police status to cause harm to someone under the guise of being a police officer. So for example, if a cop beats someone using the fact that they are a cop to ge tthe drop on them and gain an advantage, like if they are searching someone and start beating them or questioning someone and start beating them, or soemthing like that, then yeah. If the cop just starts assaulting someone, like, maybe his wife is having an affair with some guy, or he gets in some bar fight, or he just likes beating people up, and the other person doesn't even know they are a cop because the guy is off duty or soemthing, then no, there shouldn't be a larger sentance or penalty, because he wasn't using his copness get gain some sort of advantage over someone.
