Amazon has the Limited Edition Strategy Guide for Fable III for $15.84. That's the lowest it's sold for I believe. The guide looks pretty nice, and comes with 1 of 4 different covers. It also has a nice art section. Obviously this is more of a fan/collector's type of item rather than a straight up guide so please keep the gamefaq's stuff to a minimum. It also comes with a DLC code to get an in-game tattoo.

Probably the same reason people add annoying animated gifs to their sigs.

Does this mean that this guide contains a backstory that is not covered in Fable III?

Ouch. In my defense i feel mine is small enough not to offend to many.

I rather watch the gif than listen to that music;)

Send them an email about it and they will tell you they will refund you, but it's only a "one time thing."

If it isn't automatic, I think I'll pass. It is just 2 bucks anyway :lol:.

Only in those situations can you do it on good faith because of how close you ordered it to the drop and that you don't have the item yet.

If you ordered it previous to that and you've already received it, it would be an exception they're granting you.
 
One of the reviewers on the Amazon page has added a video review; not bad in the event that you were looking for an additional preview to go along with the TC's vid (especially if you are still on the fence).

And I ordered it for $20.99 like a week ago. Dickles.
 
I got mine a couple days ago when it was at $17.99 It's a really nice guide. The art is well-done. The tattoo code is printed on the inside back cover of the book. Good buy for collectors or those who were considering the regular version of the guide.

Animated gifs are truly annoying, just so you know, so add me to that list. :)

With the money you spend on a guide, you could buy a brand new game...[/QUOTE]

Someone can't read well I see.[quote name='ssjmichael']The guide looks pretty nice, and comes with 1 of 4 different covers. It also has a nice art section.

Collectors can be Cheap Ass Gamers and look into saving money. Step off that high horse.
 
I'm just glad the video had a steady cam.
I can always mute the music but I can't hold the cam still for them.
Anything "Seinfeld" related gets a pass from me. I like the gif. :D
 
It appears the guide has been lowered another 50c and is now $16.49... the same price as the regular guide! they must have a ton of these sitting around.

I saw that the price went down. It was under my recommended for you page. I was about to click order and then I was like maybe possibly it could be in my gold box? Low and behold the guide was in my gold box. $15.67 so that saved what like $1.32 from when I was going to order. :lol:

Also used my $20 credit from LoS and picked up Enslaved for :360:
 
[quote name='ragingst0rm6']This is now $15.99, which is actually CHEAPER than the regular edition (still $16.59).

LOLS[/QUOTE]
ugh lol. I still haven't ordered it. I really should...but it's a guide and I really dont need it....fuck...
 
For anyone that's played the game...is a guide at all necessary? Or if you have the guide, did you actually find yourself using it when playing?
 
I'm buying it mostly for the art and the DLC... but I can see the guide being useful for some collect-a-thon quests so I can have the guide right there rather than walking back and forth to the computer a million times. Aside from that, no, the game definitely does not require a guide. Everything is pretty much right out in the open.
 
[quote name='tecwrtr']Woot! Found it in my Gold Box for $15.19!

Btw, I LOVE the Seinfeld gif! That frogger episode rocked. :)[/QUOTE]

It's in my GB too! I'm tempted even though I don't even own a 360 yet. I just kind of like these sorts of guides from an art perspective. If/when I get a 360 I do intend to buy these Fable games too.

Ditto. Very tempted to pick this up.
 
Wow, glad I stuck to the paperback for ~$13 but this is getting dangerously close to that price lol. Anyone know if the DLC in the LE guide is the same as the standard?

I didnt need a guide at all, I'm sure it would really help if you're going for all the different collectables, which I dont really do. If you get lost you can always turn on that little line that shows you where to go.
 
It's in my goldbox right now for $15.05, but while I'm tempted, I think I'll wait for a chance at a penny guide. I just don't see this one paying off as much as jumping on the Fallout 3 GOTY Collector guide for under $20.
