i'm thinking halucinagenic insomniac (Fight Club RULES). Bad idea, a horrible game coming from a horrible console to pc. Neverwinter Nights and Elder Scrolls series will decimate it, eat it, spit it out, out-mod it, out-last it, and then buy the development studio and shut it down just to laugh in the face of the developers.

It's called "Fable: The Lost Chapters", and will supposedly contain some bits and pieces that had to be cut from the Xbox game. Meanwhile, Xbox 360 is getting Fable 2. Ironic, isn't it?

The word irony has no real meaning on the internet anymore, so sure.

I guess I'm the only one who really doesn't like Fable. I liked the effects and graphics but everything else about the game I really just despised. I guess the genre kinda died for me when Morrowind started freezing. ;_; I never went back to finish it.

That puts you in 99% of people who have played Morrowind. Seriously, did you actually think you'd finish it?

I thought maybe if I used enough codes that I could just walk to the bad guy and beat him.

I beat Morrowind (absolutely amazing game) 2x and it NEVER froze. You guys need better computers. I despise Fable, it was a horrible horrible game, with a horrible horrible plot, but then again what do I expect from the guys at Microsoft? And yes, I realize the game was made childish on purpose because most owners of consoles are well, children. Fable on PC will be completely laffable, especially with the Elder Scrolls 4 coming out.

The XBOX has a fairly common glitch with loading areas that sometimes would cause the game to quit, and you would lose progress since last game. The PC had it worse, but they quickly patched it, not to mention it only affected some nvidia cards.

Really? I never got freezing on my Xbox... And Kommie, the reason I never finished it was because I didn't LOVE it. It was good, but not past 20 hours or so.

To clarify:
The xbox had a general disc read error type thing on the game of the year (I think, some special thing) version that would pretty much just make you reset the game. So you'd lose all progress since your last save. Which is a lot usually.

The PC had a glitch on some nvidia cards or something where it would load a new area and the previous area you were in wouldn't be cleared from the memory, so you'd have a lot of stuff in the memory at the same time. By the time you got 3 zones away it would quit out with the out of virtual memory dialogue. But apparently it only happened in certain areas and only certain directions and didn't happen to a lot of people, but they patched it up anyway.

Still, Morrowind is a great game. It's just insanely annoying when you start out and can't hit anything and fail at spells constantly.
