‘SIDE’ the production company that brought us Fable 2 says “It was a real pleasure to work on”.

With over 45 actors ranging from the ages of 8-80 to play 200 speaking characters, Fable 2 has nearly 370,000 words recorded which comes to 38 hours of dialogue!  Unlike Oblivion, where certain characters voices were depicted correctly based on looks alone, Fable 2 has dialogue that seems to be a bit more evened out.  By that I mean, speaking to 2 characters in a row will rarely sound the same.  Hope that’s clear…

For Microsoft’s epic RPG, FABLE 2, SIDE cast over 45 actors (aged from 8 to 80) to play almost 200 speaking characters. Four of SIDE’s voice directors ensured that all performances harmonized perfectly with FABLE’S idiosyncratic world and captured the complexities of its inhabitants. The voice recording ran concurrently in two of Side’s studios for over three months, amounting to nearly 370,000 words recorded – that’s 38 hours of dialogue!

“FABLE 2 was a real pleasure to work on. We realised this was going to be something special as soon as we saw the superb script,” said Side Creative Director, Andy Emery. “The widespread critical acclaim for the performances in FABLE 2 show the impact a great script, cast and direction can make”

Peter Molyneux says “The sheer amount of dialogue in FABLE 2 meant this was a massive project. Side rose to this challenge in a professional and efficient way. They have done a great job for us”

Kezins.com wasn’t able to trek out to the smog-filled vistas that the Los Angeles’ downtown sprawl has to offer this year for E3, but we will be filling you in on some of the more exciting things coming out of the week-long “festivities.”

The biggest show stopper was the reveal that Final Fantasy XIII is no longer a Sony exclusive and the PS3 version will be releasing alongside an Xbox 360 version day and date in the U.S. and Europe, as Perez just reported.

Hit the link for a quick rundown of everything else that was revealed, shown, and affirmed (as the pre-E3 leaks can attest to)…
