[Lost_Addict]

[Lost_Addict]

[Neil]

ya will be fun 'cause i can play with my mates in the morning and play over live in the evining

I'll probably never play live, I only wanted it because it was fable 2 xD then all of the features they put in it just sweetened the deal lol

And I love they completly removed armour from the game xD

[Lost_Addict]

lol :D id probably do fable in this order

1. complete the game and have fun :D
2. complete the game doing achievements
3. join my freinds co op game and screw it up
4. repet step 1+3 many many times lol

[Soy]

Been waiting for this game for three years since it was announced, hope that it will be worth it

[Neil]

I'll just do stuff as it comes, the main thing I am gonna focus on first is getting a job at level 5

[Minstrels]

42 people already have it. I wish we had a Kmart. :(

[Fez]

If only life was that easy.

[Lost_Addict]

i want fable 2 to be game of the year :P lol

[Fez]

i want fable 2 to be game of the year :P lol
I think that it'll come close, but a game like MGS4 or Fallout 3 will take it just because of the fanbase and critical value.

[Neil]

42 people already have it. I wish we had a Kmart. :(

42? Lol www.mygamercard.net - Fable 2 leaderboard shows over 1000 people with it :P

Fallout 3 will not even come close to GoTY, there is more Fable fans than there is fallout fans, MGS4 stands the chance but it's obviously going to be GTA4 or something >.<

[Hiro]

GoTY will be GTA IV more than likely >_>
Fable 2 ftw!
I tried getting one from Argos today, but they don't have any, my friend works there.

Exactly the same for me, luckily I have Fridays off but I'm unsure on whether or not the GAME here are doing a pre-sale or midnight release gota find out on Wednesday.

[Hiro]

[Jord]

[CJW93]

[Neil]

If I didn't have my collectors pre-ordered I would go to currys right now and grab it xD

[Minstrels]

Looks like I've ****** up, might not be able to get it Friday.

[Hiro]

Looks like I've ****** up, might not be able to get it Friday.

Why not? :O!

[Minstrels]

Why not? :O!
Going paintballing on the Saturday which will cost in over £100 because were also going around Leeds after. I'm going to work out how much money I could take if I got Fable 2.

[Coheed&Cambria]

Should be getting it for my birthday as it is only a few days after. Looks amazing up to now.

[Neil]

I made sure I had nothing to do, I have the whole of next week off college, god I'm lucky :P

[Coheed&Cambria]

Lol you sure are. Even if i did get fable on Friday, Saw 5 comes out on the same day so for me its kinda more important.

[Neil]

Shame I have my theory on monday but that's only like an hour and a half of the day so I don't mind :P

[Minstrels]

If I get it by Thursday I'm lucky...

[Neil]

If I get it by Thursday I'm lucky...

Next thursday or this thursday? xD

[Minstrels]

Next thursday or this thursday? xD
This, looking round the Currys. Managed to skank £40.

[Hiro]

Hopefully, PLAY.com will send it 1 day early, as I get home at 1pm on Thursday aha :P

[Cwmbran]

Got a letter from GAME today about the Collectors edition having less stuff and that they have reduced it by £5 to £45.

As I've paid £5 deposit shouldn't it be £40 for me? If not then i'm gonna be complaining to them.

[Neil]

I'm not gonna bother with trying to get an early copy, too much hassle and I wont be able to play much anyway xD

Plus I get more for my money now anyway, paying £40 for collectors xD

[bean.]

are play.com likely to get it to pre-orderers on release day? or earlier?

[Lost_Addict]

lol i got myine from gamestation -- limited edition £40 :D

[Pazza]

3 Days :D (well 4 if you take technicality into account)

[Lost_Addict]

[Neil]

[Minstrels]

Bolton said to my dad "Are you having a laugh" when he asked for it so he's checking all the other Curries around the area while he's driving back tonight and if he fails he said he'll try tomorrow. :P

I hope he finds some dumb ****... should try Swindon.

Probably said that as they stick to the release dates, I don't see why people are so impatient tbh.

[Minstrels]

Loads of Curries have broke the release date. And I can wait but whats the point when some stores are selling it? If you can get it, get it. Don't see a problem in it tbh.

[Neil]

Yea I'd of got it at currys but I'd rather get collectors edition than standard, better value for money :P
I've pretty much got the game now anyway, just need it to pop through my letter box

[Jordy]

Mine's been dispatched, should get it tomorrow with a bit of luck, after all it is shopto.net :)

I'm guessing you pre-ordered online? I rang my local GAME and they aren't doing a midnight release :(

[Minstrels]

Can we get one thing settled, lets not have a repeat of GTA where people start posting spoilers without a spoiler tag. :rolleyes:

Hopefully getting mine tonight, if not it'll defo be tomorrow.

That'd annoy me quite a bit.
So I'm not gonna view this section tonight thanks for the warning :P

[Neil]

[Hiro]

Mine is here :D I'm just loading it as I type this lol

OMG NEIL!!! :(
I didn't get mine, where did you lot order it from?
I ordered from play, and recently they've been right idiots with orders :K
Ah well, tomorrow it is xD

[Lost_Addict]

aghhh im getting really annoyed with gamestation lol the order is still in the processing stage ?!?!?! and i ordered 3 weeks ago

did anyone else order from gamestation +rep for advise

[Ashley 12344]

Pre ordered instore at GAME, but I've got a credit note for Gamestation, so thats £5 down th' toilet.

Pick it up tomorrow, not sure whether or not to bore off college.

[Neil]

It is so much fun! :P

I'm quite corrupt already lol
Got my master chief outfit, didn't get the stuff from fable2.com annoyingly though

[Hiro]

Corruption is the consequence of glitching, did you glitch? aha.
You didn't? :O I'm sure there's a thing saying where you can get it.

edit: apparently, the items are in a chest in the guild chamber.

Yea they are meant to be in the chest but they're not
And no corruption comes from just about anything evil you do xD I've done everything evil so far lol

[Jordy]

Very good game so far, spent quite a while on it. The co-op update has been released and a mate from school came and started killing all the guards, and I'm trying to be good lol. I say try but not much luck.

I've had loads of attention from bisexual men though? :D

Was safety on or off? :P


@Neil - have you tried going through it again? I was wondering why it always said "and he left his greatest treasures in a cave for his descendants" at the end of the story xD

[Pazza]

If u got CE, when you choose your first spell, open chest next to orb =]

[Hiro]

Is that for the Master Chief Suit and Energy Sword?

[Neil]

@Neil - have you tried going through it again? I was wondering why it always said "and he left his greatest treasures in a cave for his descendants" at the end of the story xD

Yea it's not working at all :S I've tried to redo the games and it says I've already redeemed the rewards I just can't get them from the chest, is it definitly that chest? :S

[Pazza]

Is that for the Master Chief Suit and Energy Sword?
Yeah,

It took me a while to figure out what it meant, but if you missed it just go back.

[Jordy]

Is the armour much good? I haven't cared for it yet but the sword is absolutely amazing. Can just ran around tapping X really quickly, the feedback and satisfaction of killing with it is pretty good. It's much better than the identical energy sword found in Halo.

[Neil]

Na the armour is ugly so I don't even use it, I wear some pretty cool clothes I picked up from a shop and pub games, I have an upper class male hat which looks cool, my character is 100% evil now and the new evil model looks awesome xD next playthrough I'm going to be good+pure see how that looks

[Hiro]

Wow, so it doesn't take long to reach 100%? :O
When I get mine today, I'll see if I can get my fable2.com stuff.


Just read some stuff, and apparently it's now the chest were you get the LE stuff or the Chamber of Fate, but I don't have a clue what they are, obviously xD
I'm confused.

[Aflux]

I just got this game, will give it a whirl after I've done some deeds - I was laughing just reading the manual, haha.

[Jord]

Ill be getting this game today, Hopefully.

[Hiro]

I liek the game so much :D
Was waiting ages for postman! :P

[Aflux]

The opening cut-scene thing is awesome lol, is that the woman from My Family doing the first voice thing? Zoe someone?

[Fez]

42? Lol www.mygamercard.net - Fable 2 leaderboard shows over 1000 people with it :P



Fallout 3 will not even come close to GoTY, there is more Fable fans than there is fallout fans, MGS4 stands the chance but it's obviously going to be GTA4 or something >.<
Yeah, that overhyped piece of urban half-*****ness

It takes a bit of time but me and my friend did co-op and just slaughtered everyone in Bowerstone Market, it was fun and I got like 11k EXP in skill and 13k in general xD

[Jord]

I think my mums getting it soon, So anyone wanna co op with me :)

[Neil]

The co-op is pretty bad if you're trying to actually play the game xD
Not bad if you're just gonna stand around or go shopping or something

[Hiro]

It's a great game, even though I'm not that far into the story (I think). My friend and I were gonna go into co-op later just to prat about xD
I saw Neil most of the time either wandering around Bowerstone Cemetry for the sake of it, or doing the same quest. :P

Yea we were probably doing the same quest, I didn't bother with it for ages so I thought I'd go do it xD

Just getting some EXP and stuff atm :P
