Sometimes, when we are lying in bed—after the giggles subside and our hands finally give it a rest—my girlfriend likes to joke about how video games prepared me for a life where I "go out with all the cuties."
Warning, spoilers ahead, starting with the end of Casablanca:
Lionhead has posted the fourth installment of their Big Hero Gathering feature, in which they assemble players' heroes from Fable II into one giant tribute to character customization.
Ever wonder what an avatar placeholder wearing a Fable II t-shirt looked like? Well BAM, there it is.
The upcoming See the Future downloadable content for Fable II could add up to 250 gamerpoints to your Xbox 360 gamerscore, if you get lucky.
A massive gathering of heroes on the Lionhead development blog shows just how customizable the main character in Fable II really is.
The eagerly anticipated Knothole Island DLC for Fable 2 is now available via Xbox Live Marketplace, and to celebrate, Lionhead has released a set of six new screenshots showing off the new content.
Without spoiling more than I already have, a post over on the Fable II dev blog indicates that players disappointed by their particular ending can find solace at Knothole Island's mysterious resurrection shrine.
David Nieborg has a thoughtful essay up over at Valuable Games on the subject of Fable 2 and its moral system — and the relative success (or not) of that system. As Nieborg points out, it would be entirely possible to play through the game and ignore the moral aspects, and in his view, the morality system is…
Lionhead Studios and its excitable leader Peter Molyneux are rather infamous for attacking massive projects wide-eyed and genuinely enthusiastic, ultimately delivering a final product that's somewhere in the range of ninety percent of what it, and followers of the developer's games, had in mind. Fortunately, for Fable…
And it was all going so well! Several users - both in our tips@kotaku.com inbox and the official Lionhead Forums - say that Fable II has been 'freezing' or locking up at various stages. "as soon as I got into my adult stage in the gypsy camp it froze," said Lionhead Forum member 'Sansight', "Strange freeze too, loud…
What McWhertor posted last night as a rumor is definitely not a rumor. I found out last night after getting my Fable II Depressing Limited Edition from GameStop that yes, the card was missing from the game. It was pathetic enough to go from that majestic-looking LE package to a game in a paper sleeve, and now this?…
According to one of our readers, today's shipment of Fable II Collector's Edition may wind up being less than it was cracked up to be, at least at some GameStop stores. After already being whittled down to near bare bones status, with special CE packaging and a limited Hobbe figurine having already been gutted, all…
All those high-profile games leaks - just how do they happen? Well, here is one way... An employee of games packaging specialists Technicolor has been arrested in connection with the theft of 100 unreleased copies of Gears of War 2 and Fable 2. An investigation into the theft led Memphis police detectives to follow…
It goes without saying this needs a major spoiler alert, which is why I'm sticking the video on the jump. Video of the first 10 minutes of the game turned up this week on the Polish gaming site Polygamia. The dialogue is in English, subtitled in Polish. If you can't wait until Tuesday to get the game (North America)…
Here it is folks, the trailer all of you Fable fans have been waiting for, the last one - the launch trailer. North America fear not because in just four short days, October 21st, you'll be able to get your hands on the game and play to your hearts content. Europe will have to wait a little longer to empty their…
Microsoft and Lionhead have launched the official Xbox site for Fable II, and much like the site for the original Fable it contains a charming interactive storybook for fans of the series to play through, only this time there are prizes involved! The cutout story tells the tale of your character's ancestor as he…
While Lionhead might have been mouthing "sorry" a couple weeks back when word dropped that Fable II would be shipping without the eagerly anticipated online co-op feature, they are no doubt now pumping their fists in the air and shouting "yes!" like a triumphant home alone child as they announce that they managed to…
You know, some trailers we get are just a pleasure to watch and that goes for this new Fable 2 developer diary. A few members of the audio department over at Lionhead explain some of the music and sound choices that were made for the game. So if you've had a rough day at work or are just stressed out, sit back, relax…
Peter Molyneux's Fable 2 publicity storm continues, complete with Molynexisms. Today's is about Fable 2 being so good that even the people on payroll like it. Or something. Here, let Molyneux explain:
