And it will likely fail miserably in the presence of the Witch 2 and Dragon Age 2.

So I see M$ is looking for an out of pc gaming as they can't compete with steam. Gonna try and label it dead when nobody buy's their game to try and save face.

Strategic launch date to use a piracy excuse to blame poor sales and further reduce PC attention =P

May 17? what are they FN Stupid? Who the hell is gonna buy that?

The Witcher 2 is released that same day. Lets see should I buy a console port that didn't get any hype on it's own console or buy a game built for the PC whose first game is one of the greatest RPG ever? I'll get the PC game.

They need to release Fable 3 PC in April. The only heavy hitter in April so far is Portal 2. Sorry but the only people who will be playing Fable 3 are the pirates (maybe). I'm buying the Witcher 2.

I know. Watch them complain about the fact it sells no copies and how PC gamers don't deserve support. Just releasing an average game at a very bad time. Definitely buying the Witcher 2 over this.

Sarcasm5475d ago

Wow May 17th huh. I've already lost interest in this game and judging from the poor reviews, looks like I'm not missing out on anything anyway.

Capdastaro5475d ago

Dumb move MS and co...

I'm buying it but I doubt many others will with Witcher 2 busting on the scene

DelbertGrady5475d ago

Is it impossible to enjoy both?

tablav5475d ago

I wondered when somebody would say this...if you're a gamer, you should enjoy all the games you can. Don't complain that 2 games are coming out. Just enjoy each experience on it's own merits.

ATiElite5475d ago

sure you can enjoy both but The Witcher is a far superior game that will take up a lot of your time. I'm sure on May 17th no one is gonna shell out $100 for two games especially since they are not gonna play Fable 3 for another month later. That's the point ppl are making.

I see most ppl picking up fable 3 through a steam discount sometime in june or before SW:tor comes out

Fable II - A Fantasy Series at Peak Performance

Fable II launched back in 2008 and remains the best the series has offered. Ahead of the series comeback, it's time to look at the classic.

They gotta bring back those gargoyles!

Dudeson974d ago

I'd love to play it again, this time on pc though. Forever waiting on that pc port.

GaboonViper974d ago

Loved this game, oh and i always saved my dog at the end, hope the new Fable has a animal companion.

got_dam974d ago

Fable 2 was the best inthe series. Peter waaaaaaay over promised with fable 1 and it was good but disappointing. He didn't go crazy eith hype for the second game and it was surprisingly awesome. Then he ran his mouth promoting 3 and it was the worst of the 3.

cthulhucultist974d ago

Funny story: Fable 3 had a funny way of keeping the promises you made in the first half of the game and having enough money to defeat the darkness.

You only had to collect enough money to buy 2 stores in a busy market district. You then raise the prices to maximum and you turn xbox 360 internal clock 99 or more years ahead.

The next time you load the game, all the rents from the 99 years are collected immediately.

But yes I agree that 3 was the weakest of the three.

Demetrius973d ago

I only got to play it once 😩 I'm so tempted to buy a Xbox 360 slim but planning on getting the series x soon since I got a PS5 in February Im ready to get saints row 1&2 back, GTA 4, fable 2, but I also want to play infamous 1&2 again Sony screwed us over with the stream only for saints row 2 and other gems smh
