Fable 2 Development

   

Launching in London?

Published Thursday, October 23, 2008 3:21 PM by Sam

So we didn't really get a show like the one they did for Halo 3 and the iMax theatre, and it's nothing like the impressive event for Little Big Planet - but luckily us Lions are putting on our own show by getting onto a tube to London downtown (Oxford Street, see map below for details) and go and check out our game in the local retail outlets! You'll spot us wearing Fable II hoodies and T-SHIRTS, looking nervously and excited (I know I will!). If you spot any of us please say hello, we can't wait to meet some real people who will be spending their hard earned cash on our little baby.

This is our little agenda for tomorrow (thanks to Jen for putting this together)

  • Finish work at 1pm on Friday and make our way to Oxford Circus tube station
  • Wander along to the first big red X, which is HMV, if we aim to get there around 3pm we can all meet up to make a bit more of a scene!
  • Then wander along to the second X, GAME (it might be a bit further along than the X says, sorry)
  • The third X is Zavvi, the last of the three big shops that will be selling our game.
  • Then we're going to a pub (at a secret London location)

My local gamestation has had their delivery of the limited edition sent to the wrong store so they arent getting it till some time tomorrow afternoon so Im going to be busy phoning them every ten minutes asking if it has arrived yet so I guess Im occupied most of tomorrow anyway Sad [:(]

Hope you guys have a great time though, you definitely deserve it!

"Then we're going to a pub (at a secret London location)" - Worth at least 20 Achievement Points - "The Pied Piper" and "The Party Animal", but try to avoid "The Menace to Society" please, unless you also go for "The Hero of Many Names"!

Have fun, and thanks!
