Fable II CE Cut Even Further

Mike Fahey of Kotaku writes:

"So the Fable II Collectors Edition box set has been trimmed a little, losing the five printed fate cards, the Hobbe figure, and..oh yes, the box. Still, we still get a bonus DVD with developer diaries and the full game soundtrack, right? Perhaps not."

hitthegspot6446d ago

The only thing you get that's worth anything is the in-game extra armor and weapons.

Chuck Norris6446d ago

..all of which should have been available in the normal edition in the first place.

Seraphim6445d ago

so why are they even bothering to continue offering Fable II CE? All this you'd think they'd just say to hell with it and just release the standard. Oh, yeah, all those unsuspecting fools who'll still spend the extra money thinking they're getting some cool CE only to realize they've been had. buy yeah, why even bother, just axe it altogether if you ask me.

serjdisciple6442d ago

They are dropping the price ten bucks but i still am canceling my CE and getting a reg its not worth it any more

Isn't this false advertising? I paid for a specific product and they can now just say, oh well we aren't offering this. thanks for your pre-order and extra money...Well Lionhead is not going to get anymore pre-orders out of me from now on or their associates. f'n cheap if you ask me.

SmokingMonkey6445d ago

i would be pissed if they didn't release the chimera figure and all the extras in the Resistance2 CE, but the best stuff is in game. CLOVEN

Juuken made mad bank from twinky printing "Fat Free" on the wrong boxes. That fatass is loaded now. Still wouldn't hit it with an enemies wang though.

juuken6445d ago

Nice...you insult people instead of contributing to the article.
You're a true gamer alright...KEEP IT UP! :)

You are a disgrace to humanity.

Spread Butt Cheeks6445d ago

You bring it on yourself. You go around trolling 360 threads. Don't be mad at me that you're overweight.

juuken6445d ago (Edited 6445d ago )

And you don't troll PS3 threads as well?
Oh shut-up and get a life.
You don't know me outside of the internet so I'm not bothered by your fat jokes. :)
It just proves that you're an idiot.

juuken6445d ago

...Did your 360 crash or something?
I mean...you have some serious mental issues dude. :/

thank you DVD9

:)

EDIT: anyway, i don't see why they're taking stuff out. wtf.
sucks for the hardcore fans who ordered the CE.

DevastationEve6445d ago

It's an anticipated title nonetheless. SO, I guess I'll just pick up the regular edition. It's still going to be a great game. Actually, I've made it my crusade to dissuade people from buying those collector's edition versions of games. It's not worth it, and you're just showing them they can gouge the prices of games even further.

meepmoopmeep6445d ago

yeah, it'll be a great game.

it just sucks for the fans that they don't get that extra stuff when it was announced.
why announce it when you're gonna take it back?

FantasyStar6445d ago

my sarcasm radar is strong in this area.

Crazywhitie6445d ago

Collectors Editions are never worth the money, It's only for the People that are diehard for that game... Madden 09 at least had an extra game even though it was crappy

KillaManiac6445d ago

Warhammer Online is the best value CE I have seen in a long time.

Most companies just try to throw a extra "making of/behind scenes" DVD on the side. Which all the basic info can be found on the internet.

I have Fable 2 preordered and will pick up day 1 along with LBP same day, but there is NO way I will be picking up CE for Fable...the Spartan Master Chief armor should of been included in the game in the first place.

BTW: I wonder when online Coop works, if your friend has CE spartan armor, can you goto his world and get it also? O_o

Aclay6445d ago

Wow, I've never seen a Limited Edition version of a game get it's contents cut out before the game released. I guess all of the extra items couldn't be ready in time for Fable 2's official release or something because I really can't think of any other reason as to why the other items would get dropped.

bouncybullet6445d ago (Edited 6445d ago )

It was way too much stuff for the price I think.

I love Fable but I could care less about any of that extra crap.

The 7 Best Xbox 360 Games - Console Exclusives Win the Day

The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?

DrDoomer907d ago

I'm pretty used to these lists being bad, but this one is particularly s#ite.

raWfodog906d ago

I think Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon should have been added to the list.

BrainSyphoned907d ago

I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*

Husker42c906d ago

I really loved Shadow Complex.

P_Bomb906d ago

Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.

ChasterMies906d ago (Edited 906d ago )

Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.

Abnor_Mal906d ago (Edited 906d ago )

Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.

The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.

darthv72906d ago

360 had Namco hitters AC6 and RR6... both quality titles. You should at least bust out the 360 for AC6 if you can score the flight stick. Its great.

Hofstaderman906d ago

When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....

Profchaos906d ago (Edited 906d ago )

It's a nostalgia peice same reason we get thousands of YouTube videos on sega genisis. Something people have fond memories for but the era is long gone.

It's xboxs golden year imo it was their genisis years the time where they stuck it to the market leaders Sony.

BehindTheRows906d ago

They stuck nothing. Sony screwed themselves giving Xbox an opening. They would have gotten the usual smack down if the PS3 had launched at $399 and was easier to develop for.
