Hi guys, I will get to the point.

I read the majority of reviews out there, and visited a few forums.
I tend to have a system when buying games that tend to look good, but I dont trust anymore.

Is this game worth the cash.

When I play games, I usually dont do 100% of it, but I do damn near all of it, say 90%. I try and explore everything in an area, to say the least.

How long will this take me. The only answers I saw have been 6hours(Really?)-60hours(my ass....).
Is there enough content to justify 60 hours? And I dont mean go around and talking to people, I am assuming this game's dialogue (if one can call it that) is laughable compared to other gaming giants.

I am talking about actual CONTENT, quests, story missions, side-quests, weapon upgrades, weapon sets, stuff like that.

Sorry if I come off as....rude, or mad or what not. Fable 2 was a failure and a let down, so I have to be cautious now.

If your opinion if Fable II was a failure and let down then you will need to gtfo here because you won't like Fable III.....

not to be rude or anything..

Yes, it is worth it.

The story is strong (for the most part).
Tons of weapons.
Tons of outfits.
Hundreds of side quests.
GOOD OR EVILLLLL

Ok first off The story is good till the end, its rushed so lets put it that way.
second of all, there most certainly is not tons of clothes, there is about 50 weopons + your 2. 8 spell gauntlets, and about 40 maby not even side quest, not hundreds. Thats an honest review of it. Ya its good, you just wont like the ending is all.

Well I believe, like most Fable games, if you take your time and do things slowly then you should enjoy this game more than others have. If you just quickly dash through the main quest and don't bother transferring money etc. then you will be dissapointed and start complaining that all your people are dead. You'll start moaning about your mistakes and saying that it's the games fault.

I haven't got the game. From what I've read this game is completely different from Fable 1 and 2. In those games you didn't have to be very clever. I believe people have expected Lionhead to make a game like that again. This then causes people not to pay enough attention. Therefore, people miss, important, things out of the rebellion process.

This is just based on what I've read.

Sounds like to me this game is a pile of sh*t and really isn't worth me spending $60 plus tax on it. So I'll leave it at that. I would rather wait until the price falls down or get it off ebay for $30-$40. Not about to go to a store and support a company that has had three chances to get a game right and failed at it three times. I mean Fable 1 was fine, it had its issues like it was very restrictive with where you were able to go. The choices weren't very good, and the world never truly changed much at all. Plus you aged and couldnt have kids either. Now that you can it still doesn't mean much seeing how they don't do much. In Fable II you was given a game loaded with bugs, terrible graphics, lousy plot, hardly any outfits (especially hairstyles, which Fable III is lacking in as well). So pretty much if you listen to Peter and let him raise your expectations too high. You're going to be either disappointed or upset in the end. Just be patient or get the game for less off the internet. Forget supporting these lazy ass people that aren't even trying.

hmm....listen to a guy who is stupid enough to buy a game he doesn't like three times, or listen to the reviews which are the complete opposite of what he said....I'm in quite a conundrum here.

I've been a fan since Fable 1 and I thought this was their best effort to date. I enjoyed the story though I'm not completely happy with the Sanctuary or the inability to choose you're expressions, but I quickly got used to the changes. For me it was worth $60.
