    The skill system still seems fresh, the battles run smoothly. And in the bizarre and brutal world of Fable I felt I was always at home. A worthy HD update to celebrate the 10 years anniversary, with a few technical problems.

    This has to be a joke. Someone please tell me the developers are playing a seriously out of date April Fool's prank on PC gamers? While theThis has to be a joke. Someone please tell me the developers are playing a seriously out of date April Fool's prank on PC gamers? While the game LOOKS beautiful with the updated graphics they took a PC game with proper PC controls, ported it to a console control interface and then ported it right back to PC with a hideous console port controls setup. Seriously? No mouse support for menus? A, B, W, A, S, D, Tab, Insert, Home and End keys to navigate the game with no remapping allowed? WTH?

    To top it off, this is the official developer's response when questioned about the lack of proper keyboard and mouse support:

    We would have loved to add mouse support to the menu but we reached a point in the project where it was either going to be modding support or adding features such as mouse support in the menus. We chose modding.

    They apparently consider an appropriate PC UI to be a "feature" and not a necessity. This would have gotten at least an 8 or 9 because it does have much better graphics but they apparently have no clue about what is needed for a PC interface for a game. Stay away from this and stick with the original if you want proper controls. Should they fix the controls scheme I am willing to re-review this game. As it stands, the controls scheme and lack of remapping is intolerable for a PC game.    … Full Review »

    No control customisation available, menu navigation suck (REALLY substandard for a decade old remake), dont try playing that crap with a mouseNo control customisation available, menu navigation suck (REALLY substandard for a decade old remake), dont try playing that crap with a mouse ... In the end, give it a pass and give your money to a game company that deserve it (Microsoft you suck even more for not being able to even put in a freaking mouse configuration menu or a mouse cursor for menu navigation.)… Full Review »
