Microsoft spinning Fable for the PC
PC version of Molyneux's epic choose-your-adventure will get new content; Fable: The Lost Chapters will be available this fall.
Lionhead frontman Peter Molyneux and Microsoft Game Studios are doing their best Aesop impressions for PC gamers. Microsoft today announced that the popular Xbox title Fable is headed for the PC this fall, under the name Fable: The Lost Chapters. The much-hyped title was released on Microsoft's console last September and was developed by Big Blue Box, which is owned by Black & White developer Lionhead Studios.
As indicated by the title, the PC version will feature additional content not found on its console counterpart. There will be additional quests to undertake, new regions to explore, and a deeper storyline. Gamers will also be able to use new armor and weapons, cast new spells, and slay new creatures.
In Fable, players start as a young boy and eventually reach old age, with every choice they make effecting their character. Gamers can take their alter-ego along the path of righteousness, acquiring a saintly sheen and becoming the toast of the town, or choose a path of evil, growing devilish horns, attracting a swarm of flies, and witnessing townsfolk fleeing in terror at the character's mere appearance. By using certain weapons or acting in certain manners, the hero's physical appearance may change--slim and sleek for players who use ranged weapons and spells or buff and burly for those who scrap face-to-face.
Fable: The Lost Chapters will retail for $49.99 when it hits shelves this fall, and is currently awaiting a rating. For more information on the game, choose the path of GameSpot's full review of the Xbox version

Well ... then it might be right up my alley.
As to Halo, I've only tried it on PC. And we all know how that crappy port turned out. FarCry and Doom3 run better on my computer than Halo did.

gta games are great, halo was just big pile of shit, fable was good and will probably be more fun with added stuff and maybe some nicer gfx, but i point out again, HALO WAS SHIT, DO NOT COMPARE TO GOOD GAMES; BC ITS SHIT, NOT EVEN WORTH TO BE DOWNLOADED, TO FIND A MORE SHITTY GAME YOU MUST USE A TELESCOPE AND SEARCH BEYOND PLUTO!!!

hmmm can't belive they actually bother making a PC version, I think that Mr. Molyneux should worry about Black And White 2 instead...

Fable on Xbox was a pretty good game but not what it was promised to be. I doubt the PC version will have enough added to get excited over.

All these people talking shit about fable and halo 1/2, probably for one reason only, because they're console games.
I would give fable 8/10, Halo 7/10 and Halo 2 9/10. Better then alot of the shit we get on PC at the moment.
Ignorance is not bliss in this case, you're missing out. Ah well, I think the sales of the games speak for themselves i.e. you're in the minority.

like i said
I OWN A XBOX..
The games were nothing special..pure and simple
I can play 10000x better games on the pc any day...
Its a fact.. console games are "Dumbed down" .. cause consoles are for the masses.. its a fact.. if far cry for example was on a console.. it would have been hailed FAR FAR more than halo etc.. and would have been called the greatest game of all time etc... same with half life 2 etc etc etc etc etc.

Fable was innovative (VERY few games are these days, just FPSs after FPSs), but still faild in many areas. Glad to see this comeing to PC though! Its bigger this time.

Only because of the graphics, they were the only special thing about farcray.
Is someone a graphics whore?
As I said, you're in the minority.

doom3 is getting more attention though, but that might be for the coop play.
