SPLURGE of Fable 2 news

From Lionhead:

Last week we had some visitors in our offices; two big groups of European jounralists got to see Fable 2 up-close and personal. They’ll be publishing their findings in the upcoming days including the 7 new screenshots which can already be found here.

And here are some of the previews we found already, we’ll keep the list updated as the day goes on. Even if you can’t understand what they’re saying, some of the previews are worth having a look at just for the pictures or the video:

Briefly: the release date is now shifted to “this holiday”, it’ll be much bigger, Molyneux loves GTA IV, it’ll be cool and stuff, 5000 bugs and content complete either tomorrow or in a week. Also mo’ images? We do not know.
