I myself am also wondering in what sense the Fable series is "awesome". I mean sure, it's good, it's pretty entertaining, it can keep me hooked, but why is it "awesome"?
First of all, none of the two already released Fable games really implemented what was promised, which already made the two Fable games less awesome than what was hyped. Second, aside from doing jobs, being able to get married, doing quests and invest in real estate, there's nothing more to it. It's like GTA in a fantasy world, only with less quests and RPG elements. And the marrying part. And no vehicles to hijack.
