Personally I still say Fable 3 is better than 2.
When it came out I was lucky enough to not run into the heavy glitches.
Though the worse ones seem to be fixed now.

It wouldn't take much to be better than Fable 2.
Blah.

@Jawmuncher Unfortunately it still ends the same way, so they didn't fix all the big glitches.

I agree with Ezio. Maxed out my character Before the half way point of the game and quickly there after got bored and quit. That game just isn't as fun when you're not gaining experience and you're so rich gold drops mean nothing. (since it clocks you're earnings while the game's off, I'm probably a billionaire right now)

"Disappointing game in getting demo 8 months after release shocker"

Why the demo release now? Seems odd. If anyone is thinking of this I don't think I could recommend it. Certainly I much preferred Fable 2. Fable 3 just didn't offer enough variation. The whole being ruler thing? Please. That was a massive let down. I still love me some Fable 1 and 2 but I do hope that there won't be a Fable 4. I think this franchise has run it's course.

Wait...

As like most developers who release demos way down the road after release, they are probably trying to squeeze a few more sales.
Think of it, someone downloads game having not really ever played fable or heard of any bugs/problems and digs it, then goes off to make a purchase.

Worst disappointment of 2010. If you think fable 3 was better than 2. You must be out yo damn mind.

1-3 all seem to be used to, thanks other people for making me waste my time!
Serious note, will actually check this demo out. Totally loved the first one when it came out, even though there were boundaries and I was promised an "open world". 2 wasn't too bad and I got all achievements minus one (stupid bear!) but I keep hearing mixed (more negative, but whatever) thoughts on the 3rd game.

This was a huge brain fart for me seeing that title. "…Fable 3?…Demo…Did Fable 4 come out?…Still not right…oh their just trying to lure in 5 or 6 more sales."

Fable 3 is the worst in the series. 2 was the best.

Glad I didn't pay for this game. The weird janky frame rate in the demo is killing me. On top of that, is it just me or does the game look worse than Fable 2?

So they put out a demo but not a patch to fix all the glitched achievements? Nice.

Here let me save you all the hassle if you're wondering what it's like :- It's shit.

Had a blast playing the demo!!
I own the Platinum Hit for Fable II which has both DLC (Knothole & C Future). Now if did some searching online about Fable III doing this and haven't found anything.
Does anyone know anything about this??

Yeah how dare they market their product in an effort to make some money.

It's not without its flaws, but fable 3 has a certain charm and I've played through it 3 times already.
Still...I enjoyed fable 2 a bit more. Here's hoping fable 4 is more grounded in fantasy. I didn't much care for the industrialized Albion.
