I know some people love them but I can't for the life of me understand why.

Either way, I'll send ya Fallout 3 this time next year if you're still interested.

That was just a one month thing so I could purchase a couple of titles for cheap. Only cost me 6 bucks for that month of membership. Nice service but I didn't see it being worth the $17 a month though.

Plus, on renting, I can't beat a game in less than a month. Sometimes longer. Just don't have that kind of time.

EDIT
Definitely willing to give it a try, if you are willing to part with it for a week or so. A year from now that is.

I thought about looking into gamefly but I think I'd rather just buy my games and sell the ones that need selling with amazon.
I like having a solid catalog... amirite?

I am the same way. If I am going to spend money on a game it is going to be for a full out purchase. To me, renting is a waste of money.

Bingo.
Especially if it's renting a title that you want to buy. Games are around $9 to rent? I haven't rented a game in about 5 years. My current roommate is a manager at a local Hollywood Video

The co-opt in Fable II isn't very good. And it isn't really because of the problems most people are complaining about; the camera or the fact that you have to play as a henchman. The gameplay in Fable just isn't built for multiplayer. Most of the game is about exploring, doing quests, or other simulation type stuff; things that just don't translate well into multiplayer. There isn't a whole lot of combat in Fable, and for the most part its very easy. There really isn't anything to do in co-opt.

Frazod · 10-23-2008, 11:47 PM

The only thing about Fable 2 that really sucks is the map - it doesn't stay in the corner of the screen like the original and is only visible in the map menu, where it's pretty small (even with a big TV) and basically useless. But the light trail nearly makes up for it.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 10-23-2008, 11:50 PM

I'm gonna have to pick up Fable 2.

My favorite games on platforms always tend to be RPGS

SNES: FF II and III
Xbox: KOTOR
360: Mass Effect

Yeah that really bothers me too, especially since the menus are so slow. I really like the game, its too bad it seems to be pretty short. I'm almost done and will probably end up finishing the game doing all quests (and finding all silver keys and gargoyles, etc.) in 25 hours.

Gears and Halo for starters. A vastly larger game library as well.

It's not about which one is better though.

I am glad I own both.
