god that would be diabolical. Except I've seen the LE for sale on a bunch of different sites, not just GameStop.

GameStop was just an example but the fact that more retailers just happen to guess on the existence of these items should tell you something. When's the last time you saw these many retailers be wrong about the existence of an item they took preorders for??? And if they're not all wrong they must know something we don't to make them stick their neck out like that(taking preorders on an item isn't something you can just say "oops I was wrong" without ruining your credibility as a retailer.)

Yeah that's what I was thinking. I don't suppose they would cahrge 70 bucks for a game that didn't exist without some kind of credibility. Do we still not know what extra content the LE will have?

No clue as of right now though I expect E3 to clarify this but who knows?? I'm guessing that the extra content must also be in one way or another related to the fourth big feature since they're being completely silent on the issue. After all the fourth big feature is supposed to be new to gaming so why not falre it even more by tying it with some extra content that would be included in the LE of the game??? That's just my speculation though.

True that. Looks like we'll have to wait and see! 9 more days.

I saw a ad in the back of an official xbox magazine that said fable 2 limited edition was avaliable for pre-order and i went and preoredered it. Also i read somewhere that it might come with a jack of blades mask. Although at this point its still probably a guess.

That would be the greatest thing ever. If that's true I'll wear that mask day and night for a very long time.

What issue was it? What month & year??

A Jack Of Blades Mask... That Would Be AWESOME!!!!!!!! Love The Guild Seal On Cloth Map Idea Aswell

id wear jacks mask all day long along with my assassins creed shirt...

yeah, a cloth map of albion.. along with a guild seal

---

pirates go rawr?

Jack's mask?

...

I want it. That would be tight and would be cool for my artsy pictures.

---

The ad that said i could order it was in the back of the july edition of the official xbox magazine i think. The jack of blades mask i saw in a thread somewhere on the internet, where alot of people where people where wondering what it comes with, and some dude at the end said it comes with a mask, so that part it is probably not very accurate. Would be damn cool if they made a proper sized one. One that didnt fit like the halo helmet would suck.

I actually work at a Gamestop in Ohio. I have no clue what's coming with the LE (but I do have it preordered) but, this is kind of interesting, about a week ago they sent an email to the stores letting them know that there was a price change on the LE. It's now coming out for $79 as opposed to $69. So, maybe they're including a little extra than what was originally planned.

Will the change be applied to preorders already placed before the price change?? I think yes but it doesn't hurt to ask.

LE confirmed by LH! YYYYEEEEAAAAHHHH! Comes with bonus disc and Hobb figurine as well as a "making of" video.

i don't know if you guys have read this yet but this is what is coming with the limited edition

Lionhead and Microsoft Game Studios also announced details of a limited collector's edition of "Fable II" available for pre-order at retailers worldwide, for a suggested price of $79.99 USD. The limited collector's edition includes: a bonus disc with a new behind-the-scenes making of video, collectible Hobbe figure, a LIVE trial card and additional in-game content (an Xbox LIVE account is required to access the limited collector's edition bonus in-game content). The "Fable II" standard addition is also available for pre-order at a suggested retail price of $59.99. "Keystone," "Spinnerbox" and "Fortune's Tower" will also be embedded as part of the full retail copy of "Fable II" (limited collector's and standard editions).

So if we pre-ordered it before it was announced can we still download the pub games?

wtf my son is black ?

Welcome to the flooded, post Fable 2 release forums.

i think that you will still get that i mean you did pre-order the limited edition so if you did that i suppose you will get the stuff that comes with it

A LIVE Trial Card? Interesting!

 

It could be a card to try out the pub games, but I don’t think so. I’m thinking this card will let you try out the multi-player online fable world, or worlds. I been thinking for so time albion would not be the only island in the Fable II world, and a LIVE trial card fix’s with that theory.

Yes, I imagine that the store will give you a code or a disk (that either has the games or will allow you to download them). But it looks like that October 1st date might be right... didn't PM say something about how a few weeks after these games came out that Fable would be released?

---

I am surprised no one has maentioned this. But it says the pub games are availible for download in Aughust. I don't know where I heard this but I know alot of people think the same. Fable 2 is suppost to be released 6 weeks after the Pub games.

So that would put it right on the money for alot of people thinking October 1st- 14th (like I said) . Guess E3 will clarify. Also I kinda knew all along preordering it would let you download the games free.

Kinda just made sense. Besides that my guess still is a art book, soundtrack, maybe a Fable II figure, map (probaly comes with the original too though) , and maybe the Tales of Albion for people who don't use the internet that often.  So $79.99 sounds abought right.

---

It also claims to include extra in-game content. As in weapons? Clothing? Items?

What do you suppose these items are? ((I might make a thread for this question))((Whoop, Tom beat me to it))

A Live trial card is just a code that gives you a short trial period (usually one or two months) for a Gold account.

---

To be honest, I'm not totally excited about the price but hey, I'm still getting it, just because we get a little hobbe figure and extra content.

Now, the trick is to get my free code for the pub games. If that doesn't work, I'll just download them. 800 points isn't all that bad for three games packed into one.
