My friends fable 2 gives RROD

[Scouse]

Hi, my friend and member of this forum shoovers bought fable the other day, he got rrod yesterday while playing it. when he had it in his xbox sounded like it was about to take off. not knowing fable caused his rrod, he brought it round to mine earlier for me to lend and it made the same noise with mine so i took it out before i got the rrod. we compared the noise with other games and my xbox was quiet with them all apart from fable. has anyone else had this problem?

Just pure luck.

Possibly the disk and as people regularly say, RROD isn't uncommon so perhaps it's just a coincidence.

RROD happens quite often and Fable 2 is a popular game atm so the chances that it happens to just three Xbox 360's to our knowledge isn't that much of a shocking statistic.

And hey, I played Fable 2 and I'm still seeing a beautiful green circle of light.

No - that particular DVD makes your XBOX get the RROD. Don't go around slating the game generally.

when you put fable in and play it, does it make a louder noise than your other games?

"fable 2 gives rrod"

The thread title itself does not do the game any justice [from your pov].

It's silly to suggest a game gives RROD.

Actually, my fable2 disk is fine.
It has made a roaring sound before though.
Save games to you HD is the best thing to to tbh.
Oh and btw, i already beat the game.

No, my Fable 2 disk doesn't have a different sound to any other disk, it's just his.

You're saying the game 'Fable 2' gives RROD, not the disk your friend has, 'Fable 2' as a game itself, that is slating it.

My copy hasn't given any of the three xboxs I've played it on RROD so I'd say it's safe to say the game Lionhead developed doesn't kill your xbox.

ok sorry, ill get a mod to change the title to friends fable 2 gives rrod!
im asking if anyone else has the same problem.
should he take it back and get a new one?

and funya, its funny that my friend gets fable plays it and his xbox like his xbox is about to take off and i lend it off him, i get the same noise with it but not with any other game? i bet if i carryed on playin it i would of gotten rrod too. as ive had rrod before and it made the same noise. im not saying EVERY fable 2 gives rrod im asking if anyone has had the same problem with the game.

[Funya Chin]

No, I say get a new XBOX, play the game on that one, get that one RROD'd and repeat the process.

Doesnt mean its the Game, more then likely faulty disk or you've damaged it thus effected the xbox or simply pure luck it happened while Fable 2 was in.

[Scouse]

hmmm dont think it is luck then is it? seen as ALOT of other people have had the exact same problem. maybe the thread title should go back to what it used to be.

how could he of damaged it? bought the game, took it out the case, put it in the xbox, broken xbox. i lend the game, i get same noise, take it out before i get rrod. and now he has checked the games website and alot more people have complained about the exact same thing.

I doubt I would have damaged it after playing for roughly 2-3 hours over 2 days and I doubt it's pure luck if lots more people have had the same problem while on the same game

Gonna take the piece of **** back and get Left 4 Dead

I'm not saying that in some cases the disk may of effected the RRoD however more then likely half of the cases were just luck that Fable 2 was inside at the time, it could of been any game.

[Lost_Addict]

People who look into things too deep shouldn't be looked at all :rolleyes:

He isn't slating the game, if he was he wouldn't of made the title that, he would of made it more negative by using "add" words like "Fable 2 sucks, it gives RROD." You need an "add" word to make a subject sound negative or 'slate it.' Assumptions are horrible things.

Itmight just be the copy of the game. It might be worth taking it to the shop he bought it from with his receipt and telling them to see for themselves, and get a new copy if possible.
