In a year or so, when the price is right.

not right away....but definitely eventually
It depends on how good the reviews are. I haven't been able to find a single player game that hooks me in with a good story or something like that. I might rent it right away, and if I like it, I will buy it. Or I can preorder it at GameRush for $30. Either way is great.

Definately will.. not sure if i'll trade in games and get it free (since I collect XBox games, that's a tough choice).. or, more than likely, will pay $50 for it.
I mean, they've spent years on it, I might as well pay full price for it and support them..

I'll pick it up sometime. If I don't reserve it at Gamerush with the trade in deal I'll probably wait on it to lower in price.

I love me my Peter Molyneux so I'll get it sooner rather than later. Might make a good birthday present.

I have a feeling that this game is going to take a long time for a price drop, so I'll try to pick it up around release day.

Since I've discovered this site, I haven't paid full price for a game for a while (except Spider Man 2, for 30$, still less than the MSRP, but more than I usually pay). However, this fall will be the exception. With not only Fable, but DOAU, GTA SA, PSO 1 and 2 +, Metal Gear Solid 3, Doom 3 (XBox), Street Fighter Anniversary (XBox), Half Life 2 (XBox - it could happen), Sims 2 (not sure if my computer can handle it, but if it can I'm there) and of course, Halo 2 all coming out within weeks of each other, as well as other solid titles such as MAT2, GT 4 and MK 6, this will be a very expensive season, even though probably half these games will be delayed.

Preordered. One of the reasons I bought my xbox last spring. It seems like I've been waiting forever.

Yeah I think this is going to be one of those titles that sells lots of Xboxs. I've been looking forward to it for a while and it looks pretty damn sweet so far.

Project Ego is the reason I bought an XBOX. I preordered it yesterday with 2 CC $5 games, a $5 KOTOR from Best Buy and a $13 FFX. $28 for what could be the best XBOX game ever, yeah I'm in.
By the way, KOTOR is $14.95 at BB this week. I found a cashier who took the coupon from the GGC and I had 5 reward zone bucks. You might try out the GGC. $10 for KOTOR is an awesome deal if you can get it.

After I finish Breath of Fire, Tales of Symphonia is the next RPG on my list. After TOS, I'll be looking for another RPG, and I'll seriously consider Fable.

Hells yeah, I am buying it.

08-23-2004, 11:07 AM
I may or may not. Depends on if there is an deal on it. Probably not RIGHT away. Not the BIGGEST RPG fan anyways, although I can get into it if I have the time. Which may be tough with ALL the new games coming out.

Done and Done, this games is mine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No question about it, I WILL be buying this game on release day, even if it gets mediocre reviews this 1 will go in the collection.

Man, I haven't heard anyone call it that for about 2 years!
I remember reading the first EGM article on it. I was sold on this game before it even had a real name.

Getting it on its realese. I won't even wait for reviews. I'll go with my gut on this one.
I traded in 5 of the CC $5 games a few months back when EB had their Fable trade in deal. I had to go get my preorder DVD from them since there were no freebies at the time I preordered. I still have not watched the DVD as I am afraid it might ruin some of the game. Plus I already played a bit of Fable at E3 so I know it should be pretty good.

Don't worry, it doesn't ruin any part of the storyline. It's basically 'making-of' type material. Nothing too in-depth as to the story.

I agree. I think that if Microsoft releases a Xbox bundle with an extra controller, Fable, and Halo 2 for the holiday season the bundles would sell like crazy.

Yes, but I'll be waiting for a $20 price point I think. Especially since I don't have an Xbox yet. :(

This game may force me to buy an Xbox all by itself...
Monsta Mack

This is probably the only game that can come close to the Halo 2 sales, although it probably won't come as close.
Almost everyone that I know who owns an XBox has heard of Fable and will consider purchasing it if it gets good reviews.
I'll wait for the reviews.

I am so tempted to spend the 50 bucks... oh the glorius Hype... the siren call of Fable's "emergent gameplay" must get game, must pre-order now, making of dvd,..... to watch.
but I've been burned by hype before, like so many others before me. how can I be sure that this is the one.
or maybe im being alittle overdramatic

I will definitely pick it up, but I will need to wait a little bit while I get caught up on some of the other games I've bought recently.

when I get around to getting that xbox that I have been putting off for like 4 years now, chances are that I will pick this... that is unless by some random chance it comes on the PC and then I will just get it for that :)

for those who care, like me, Fable has officially gone gold

I can't believe its finally done
Someone said that Fable got an 8/10 from GMR.
