It's been a long time since I recorded a First 10 minutes, and when it's for a game as good as Fable 2 it's even more a pleasure. So here is something to help you guys wait for release date (soon!), with more to come. Sorry about the French language, my review build only has this language available.
Update: As promised, here is the second part, with of course more to come. But still in French.
Update 2: Here comes the last video of the kid time of the game. Tomorrow some videos showing the adult hero will follow.

Is there much spoiled? Like any major stuff, I've played the child stage a little so that doesn't matter I just want to keep the story wrapped until I play it myself. Great job anyway!

It looks interesting and good. Though I must admit I dont know french it's still nice to hear another language. I'd like to see more!

Virtually nothing of the actual story is shown in the first 10 minutes..just character creation..and some basic quests given out..

Not knowing french, not sure if there are any storyline pieces in the actual dialog..

No nothing too revealing. poor kids wanting to leave the place. that's pretty much all that's revealed.

The voice acting is really well done in French by the way.

And yet again we learn that you cannot judge a game by screenshots, it looks amazing in motion.

A contender for goty in my opinion :)

stop complaining. you get to watch the first 10 minutes of fable 2 for free at the click of a button. you've no right to complain people work hard to get these vids up for you only to have people complain. and if you read the title you would see they appologise for only having the video in french because their game wont allow any other language.

personally i'd like to say thanks for the video, especially since my 360s suddenly died i dont feel AS left out now

and since its in french non of the story has been spoilt for me. it was nice to have a sneak peek of the world

Got great reviews so far. I think the fact that the game is better than Fable and the fact that Monoleux didn't hail this as the second coming of Christ helped a lot.

What i am interested in, is whether or not the game is longer than the 1st opus...

And i don't mean trying to love everybody, buy every single house and have 30 children worshiping you. No, just the main story.

Another one? If it broke down you just get a new one for free thx to the 3 year warranty. And weirdly, it seems to "refresh" by every new one you get LOL
I've actually been through 5 xboxes now, they have been breaking down every 8 months like clockwork, always gotten a new one.
So i assume you modded your 360, and then you really cant cry about it :D

But blimblimblim, please upload a part 2, showing some character customization or whatever.

That was great and frankly I liked hearing it in French!

There is a big plot character involved in the video though if you see it don't ruin it for others! I was screaming loudly though when I finally put two and two together! =D

Keep up the good work here guys! I love the website! :)

For the first time ever I'm not watching a first ten minutes on Gamersyde.

I really hope you French players get the pleasure of gaming's latest voice du jour, Stephen Fry, as you do in Little Big Planet. Even subtitled!
