Fable 2 Development

   

Fable good for your wellness (plus Pub Games)

Published Wednesday, October 29, 2008 5:53 PM by Sam

Games aren't normally viewed as G o o d [Good] for your health or wellness. Today we received an email from the "Nursing Assistant Central" (Your guide to the best CNA degree programs) about an article they recently published. Surprise: Fable made their list, even beating the Wii!!!

"Although games have traditionally been viewed as strictly leisure activities, and often, time wasters, the fact is that there are a number of games available that will help you improve your health and wellness. Whether they are video games, fun devices, or brain games, many games can help you on your quest for self improvement. Read on to learn about 50 different games that will help you step up your fitness, brain power, and overall wellness."

Read the entire article (and find out where Fable ended up in the ranking in this article)

Before I forget, here are some more codes for the Pub Games, which didn't make the 50 Games That Will Improve Your Health and Wellness.

Can these codes really not be entered online? If they can't then how do they expect anyone at WORK to be able to ever get any of these codes?

Floped: Doesn't look like it. The online form says it's only for points and subscriptions, and this time instead of the "code has already been redeemed" message I got "this code is invalid or may be for another site", and I entered it right for sure.

Syniz: Believe it or not, I just checked on a whim and caught the new post just after it went up.

Astronus said:

Seriusly.

I might as well buy the damned thing.

Free things go to fast.

Now instead of this. A patch, and free downloadable content would be awesome. Now give me that and you will be my best friend.

It remains to be seen where Fable 2 ends up because in Fable 2 we learn that strong people who excercise a lot get really big and fat. We also learn that the best way to remain looking G o o d [Good] is to do nothing at all and stay weak.

I know this isn't what the article was referring to specifically (they were referring to children playing the game and being inspired to adop healthy eating habbits) but Fable II has helped me enormously while recovering from surgery. The generally positive and pleasant visuals along with the simple diversion of playing really helped take my mind off of things as I've been healing. I feel much better now and am prepared for my E v i l [Evil] character lol.

Geichz: The codes allow you to download the Fable 2 Pub Games for free from the XBOX Live marketplace.

I'm surprised indeed.

A lot of people in Fable II Fears and Problems forum are angry about all bugs and glitches they encounter, and I doubt being angry is healthy...

I would love to have the Fable 2 Pub Games. If I am granted access to the Pub Games, it will make this world a much better place. I need these Pub games to finish my research for the cure of AIDS. Just think how many people in this world would be grateful for now being AIDSless. If I am granted the Pub Games the wealth of this country will also skyrocket up and there will be an end to all poverty. Crime will also come to an end and every person will love each other do selfless deeds. So when you are randomly handing out these codes, just stop for a second, and think, "should I just hand these out to random people or should I give them to Thunder4658 and make the planet Earth a much, much better place?" By doing this you will get 1,000 G o o d [Good] morality points.
