I've been wondering about a few games that have been removed from Steam and if they're good games at all.

007 Legends
Family Guy Back to the Multiverse
Fable III

All feedback is appreciated. :)

It's nice to hear another perspective.

It's going around $55 from a retailer or $20-24 from traders, so it's a bit expensive. Such is always the case with removed games...

Thats the worst 007, its not terrible, but if you have older consoles, there's a huge selection of 007 games you would probably enjoy more
No idea about fable III, but avoid Family guy

I still have Goldeneye 64 because it's just that amazing. That sparked me to get Goldeneye Reloaded for PS3 which is actually quite good. Which others would you recommend? I had Blood Stone and beat it (enjoyed it), and used to have Night Fire and From Russia with Love but had people borrow them and never return them before I ever got to play them. :(

Goldeneye 64, i probably one of the few Bond games i will never play, not because i think its bad or anything, just because did not grew up with that console and neither did my friends at the time, now i find it really hard to appreciate those games, while the Saturn or ps1 are console i can still enjoy to this day

That's fair. Nostalgia is a powerful motivator. :)

Oh, also used to have Agent Under Fire and The World is Not Enough but they were borrowed and unreturned before I ever got to play them as well. I've lost so many games that way...

I only started playing them recently, agent under fire and NightFire were really good, most of the classic ones are more of what you would expect from a 007 game, while the newer ones are built on the same engine as COD, their not bad but lack on Bond related stuff.
Still if you want something more recent and own a PS3 or Xbox, you could try GoldenEye 007: Reloaded
EDIT: oh wait...you already played GoldenEye, never mind then :P

Maybe I'll have to look into getting the older ones that disappeared over the years. :)

It's $30 for a Steam copy. See that it's $7.50 brand new for PS3. Looks like even if I were to get it console is the way to go.

I haven't played that one. It always looked fun but I never picked it up. It looks to be quite inexpensive. :)

Fable III is the weakest fable ever, it lacks content, have dull and boring mechanics and is totally not worth it. Stick to Fable 1 or Anniversary. No idea about other 2.

Thanks. I have Fable Anniversary and Lost Chapters so that's why I started wondering about III.

Fable 3 is an insult to Fable series.

Fable 3 is pretty terrible. I liked the graphics style, the voice acting was for the most part great, the gameplay was dull as dishwater and the NPC interaction was just lame (fart in someones face and they will like you more. Is that supposed to be funny? And that is pretty much the extent of the NPC interaction, pick a silly option and watch the animation play). Not that I found Fable 1 to be a great game either, it suffered from having simple combat and ol' Pete promising things that he could not keep (Fable 1 felt linear and the good/bad morality thing did not work all that well), but compared to Fable 3, Fable 1 is a masterpiece.

Oh wow. That doesn't sound very good. I don't have an Xbox 360, so my only option would be PC. It's quite expensive to get a Steam copy these days so if it's really that bad then I can probably live with not playing that part of the series.

Fable 3 was not all that well received at launch in the first place, though I remember most of the complains about focused on the very simplistic combat that just required you to mash the same button over and over again. It does have some interesting bits towards the end, where you, as long as you don't happened to accidentally abuse the game (which reportedly was very easy to do, though I never got that far) where you actually had to rule your kingdom and make some tough choices (though the game had an "interesting" view on what constituted "evil". Raise the taxes because you need money to defeat the big world destroying thing? EVIL!). Also, the game has a system that more or less tells you outright where you should go next (big glowy path on the ground). Apart from when the game gets confused and points you in exactly the opposite direction (which happened about as often as it did not). While I tend to not enjoy it when games have an UI element that points me exactly where I need to go, the way it was handled in Fable 3 was really the worst of two worlds.

Didn't play Fable 3, but heard it's only average, with some graphical glitches too.

Hadn't played the other fables. But i've played fable 3 and I loved it. Probably the first RPG i've actually liked!

Thank you for the reply. Would you mind if I asked what you liked about it? And maybe what other RPGs you've played and don't care for? As you may have noticed people's opinions are exceedingly negative here so I'd love to hear a flip side. :)

Honestly i'm not particularly sure. It may be to do with the fact that the missions seemed to actually affect something and not just be meaningless crap like is often in other RPG's. I really enjoyed the story of it as well. You could also play co-op which I did with my friends a few times but I guess that wouldnt affect you since i'm guessing the servers have been shut down. I really enjoyed the combat as well.
Honestly I can't remember too much since it's been a while since I actually played it but it was the first and last RPG i've ever completed. RPG's that I didn't like include Skyrim, fallout.

007 Legends is optimized for controllers and controls very badly (unplayable) with mouse/keyboard - thing is, there is no controller support. I kid ye not.

What? O.O

Sounds like a reason for its failure. :)

yeah, it's just so silly. but it completely destroyed the game for me. mouse acceleration is so extreme, that i could stand like 2m away from a guy and miss him several times with my gun. xD

there may be lots of reasons why the game is bad. but this is the reason i wasn't even able to give the game a chance. ^^

Fable III is an extremely easy game with stupid DLCs and simplified mechanics in comparison with the previous one (In PC "Fable: The lost chapters"). I only recommend if you like the Fable's saga because its really simple and easy. You can try "Fable anniversary", a "lost chapters remake" with slightly better graphics and controller support.

I have Fable Anniversary and Fable: The Lost Chapters. The majority of people seem to think that's all I need and should just forget about Fable III. :)

If you already have TLC and if you wanna try something more "modern" (Anniversary's graphics are no big deal but i think the whole thing was about selling the game and controller for new consoles) I forgot all about Fable3.

Also, GFWL.
