the fable series = good quick but short fun to me

love that first day of playing it but then after the magic is gone, however that first day of play is worth it
exactly the way I feel about it... towards the end of the 2nd I completed it just to complete it.

So in order to make it more fluent, they removed those "hardcore nerdy" menus and made it look so your character's has blackout moments where he goes into his special place to change gear => a M. Night Shyamalan twist, more precisely: SPOILER ALERT! the protagonist is fucking insane!
There are no green/blue/red/yellow orbs, there are only chickens. Laughing

Never the less I'll try it out tomorrow after I finish Arcania, hopefully I'll have some free time.


P.S. I can see why B&W had those menus, you where a god after all.

The menu system (where you teleport to your own little magical palace and you walk around to change equipment etc) reminds me so much of Terranigma Very Happy

That'd be a good ending, actually - you're the king and everyone loves you and yada yada, and then it shifts to padded cell in an insane asylum. Your character's sitting in the corner wearing a straitjacket, drooling and smiling with a blank stare in his eyes.

He means it doesn't start. But it's not a set rule...it works for some people.
It's not working for me either. I can install it fine but it can't start. It says the disc is unreadable.
There have been reports of this happening on the latest official dashboard and on betas too (while it does work for someone even on beta dashboards, 12603, 12606)

There were reports that it "didn't start the first time, but it did the second", "It didn't start, then waited half an hour with the disc in the tray and then it worked", "I burned a copy (MARVEL) and it didn't work, then i deleted the .dvd file and let abgx360 create it, burned and now it works" (which is obviously not a fix since there is nothing wrong with the original .dvd file). It's not limited to LT nor the old ixtreme either.

Just plain old luck for now, and it's happening on both the p2p and MARVEL release.

The only comment with some value came from a guy (Shadow LAG...halo 2 beta leaker, forza 2 dev-something leaker?) who said this,
"Another thing I might note here is I cannot recreate an xex from the PE using the SDK which is what the developers themselves use to create these games, and I also might add that it causes a kernel panic on my development kit when ran from hard drive but when ran from network it spits a disc read error and when the two behave differently this is due to xex hooks."


So I guess there's something wrong with the game? And why the hell is the PE filename "Fable2_xfr.exe" ...
And that about covers 30 pages of 360iso's panic topic Razz

It would, imo, be the best Fable ending! Very Happy

Chickenchaser(Fable1), he's basically your characters grand-grand grandpa(Fable 2/3). And also because chickens are a part of Fable.

Yeah they insult you again. They look a bit different, but are also up in corners and on walls and you have to shoot them.

hmm well after playing more FABLE 3 ,i can be certain that Molenux ripped the whole concept of Fable 3 from ActRaiser

its like a ripoff of ActRaiser now with the Fable3 overhead map simulation :/

see Fable 3 is a 1:1 copy of ActRaiser...

Can't get into it at all :/ , Nothing seems to grab me

Got the dwellers on my side , one thing that really strikes me is Its far too easy ( Infinite magic :S ) . Maybe because I'm near the start but I can't think of taking many if any hits in combat yet .

Roll - Flourish - melee - repeat

Im trying to figure out how to import my data from F2.. Do you just need to finish the core Fable II or both expansions as well for it to import?? Because I have the save files and knothole island, but Fable III doesnt seem to be recognizing that I beat the 2nd one... Am I missing something here?

What are you planning to import if the protagonist in F3 is the child of your F2 character who is long dead...?

F3 imports the last finished F2 savegame automatically, you cannot choose for some reason. Not sure if it incorporates the addons at all.

Just out of curiosity, how exactly did you open and examine the patch file? I often wonder what the actual title updates change, so a tool like that would be quite handy.
