Fable Anniversary PC Review and Impressions

The bulk of the coverage for Fable Anniversary concentrated on the Xbox 360 version released 8 months ago, but we’ve still managed to find a review and an impression video for the PC port of this remake.

PC Gamer awards the title a 65 out of 100, though the review sounds a lot more positive.

Updated graphics, improved controls, and a new save system were all that was really needed to tweak Fable for modern players.
