Pandora's Tower Review
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but swords and chains excite me. Should you climb the towers in Xseed's JRPG/adventure hybrid to save your cursed (and tragically whiny) girlfriend?

What do these ratings mean?

Fable is like an sensitive dominatrix. It completely takes over your eyes mind and hands for about six or seven hours and then decides you've had enough and leaves you alone. Completely exhausted but wondering why she stopped so soon. Its good vs evil was decently done and the graphics are good considering it as a whole. What I liked best about this gentle sadist was a return to simpler times. The hack and slash. Just like The Ocarina of Time commanded complete and total control over every finger, my dominatrix with heart had me drinking water instead of breathing in an effort to keep my fingers moving cramp free. Of course this was only during the battles. Otherwise it was a whole lot of running around talking to quite literally the SAME EFFING PEOPLE. I'm not a designer so I don't know a whole lot about making games, but just once I'd like a game that wasn't set on Cloneworld home of the bland. Again this game was short, suffered from a bit of slow-down during battle, and while innovative not exactly ground breaking. Every gamer who has played this has said the same thing. Short. Short like an pygmy in winter short. But apparently they've heard the masses on that point so here's to hoping they listen to the rest.
