Re: More Bad News For Fable 2

Merged topics since they are both basically about the same thing. Wink

And now its just getting ridiculous. Since the CE is now the same price of the normal, I'll still probably get it, but these cuts are pissing me off. Sad

I'm not even interested in the game. I just like bringing bad news to everyone.

LOL. Just about to do the same. Seriously, what the fuck's the point in the CE/LE anymore?

Ah, baring the bad news is always a laugh. I'm not perticually interested either, there is only one game for me coming out on the 24th Wink

Just got an email from Game..

"Dear Customer,

We have recently contacted you regarding a marketwide problem with the Fable II
Collectors Edition. We have since been informed by Microsoft that there has been
a further complication.

They have advised us that the developer diary and soundtrack are no longer going
to be available on the bonus DVD."

Haha!
I'm not bothered about that stuff really, they've reduced the price to £39.99 apparently so it's still a good deal.
But still, not looking too good for Fable!

Really? A Standard Xbox game costs that when it's released iirc.

As I said before though, we're missing out on figures... Yeah... I'm soooooo incredably said I cannot have my action figurine with my game because I'm sooooooo going to be playing with a bit a plastic than the game itself.

If the Special Edition comes in the normal green box and not a tin for £40 I will get that.

Dear Customer,

We have recently contacted you regarding a marketwide problem with the Fable II Collectors Edition. We have since been informed by Microsoft that there has been a further complication.

They have advised us that the game and instruction booklet are no longer going to be available.

We are very disappointed and would like to reassure you that your Collectors Edition will still include:

Bonus DVD with new ‘Making-of’ Feature.
Health and Safety warning leaflet.

Also because you have ordered from GAME.co.uk you will have already received your code to download the Fable II Xbox Live Pub Games. If you have not received this yet have no fear as they are being emailed out every Friday afternoon, fear not! They are being emailed out every Friday afternoon.

Please accept our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Kind regards,
Customer Services

Wait, so you buy the limited edition but you don't get the game or instruction booklet?

Thats what I call value for money.

I wasn't planning to get the Collector's Edition but I know a few that were and were quite excited about it too.

They ain't gonna be happy...

From Lionhead's community blog:

Remember a couple of days ago (or was it a week) where on a blog it was mentioned that Fable II would be shipping 'without' Online Co-op? And remember we said we were busting our balls to get it ready in time for a 'Day One' release? Well - news folks! It looks like we've done it...for all of you who are connected to Xbox Live, when starting up your copy of Fable II (on 21st October in USA, 24th October in Europe and 18th December in Japan). So all of you getting upset and all, you wouldn't even have noticed... Sort of. Well done to the team.

Taken into account we don't fail certification!

Still wont play Co-op straight away anyway, but good to know the option is there. Smile

They'll also be even shit loads more people abusing the dog which will make me sad, hence why I'm not getting this anymore (That and The Orange Box + Soul Calibur IV is better imo)
