After The Fact: Reviews Revisited

Update: Online Co-op
Posted: Nov 4, 2008 12:21 pm PT
On the day that Fable II arrived in stores, Microsoft released a free update that added online co-op play to the game. It's worth noting, however, that only the player who is hosting the game gets to use their character from the single-player adventure.

    when they say $1 a day do they mean real money or just money in the game?

    This game needs many more add-ons to compete with the likes of Oblivion.

    It's funny, Peter doing an April Fools joke. I mean, the man lies a lot, so you never know if his jokes are meant to be serious.

    As an avid Fable fan here are some ideas Lionhead. The next game should give the option to have the dog stay at home, say with your family. Giving the player the right to truly choose and adding a new dynamic to taking care of your family, maybe even have your things get vandalized if you are gone for long periods of time without a guard dog . Also i really think 1 button combat worked well but 1 button magic would be better assigned to a wheel system allowing you to cast a full range of spells at there individual levels. Please polish the bugs before the release, we would all rather wait a few more weeks then see inconsistent game play. And i am psyched that they are backing their word on new cool DLC. Cheers!

    oh my god. Peter had a dead serious look on his face the whole time too. except for the twisted smirk he has when he's trying his darndest to hold back from telling all sorts of fantastical tales that won't make it into the final game. good one .

    It looks cool and awesome, but way do I have to pay $1.00 a day?

    I just want to buy it with some Microsoft points and be done with the paying process.

  • damnstraight003

    Posted Apr 1, 2009 5:31 pm PT

    This is pure genius... people get attached to pets in games, if this catches on they'll be raking in the dough... lol...

  • Nasuke1

    Posted Apr 1, 2009 5:26 pm PT

    It's kind of amusing, I like how they got Peter Molyneux in on it...

    Although, if it real, I think everyone's jaw will drop. I know mine will... and I refuse to pay $1 a day for anything gaming related XD

  • joseadorn

    Posted Apr 1, 2009 5:22 pm PT

    Wow, I thought it was true when I saw the title at first, but when I saw and read the article... man how stupid they look X D

    Well thinking it a little bit, changing the dog isn't actually a bad idea!!!

  • NobleEskimo

    Posted Apr 1, 2009 5:14 pm PT

    hahaha I like how 1up.com didn't list this under their "April Fools" section - you got at least one person, you crazy guys

  • tehfireballer

    Posted Apr 1, 2009 5:07 pm PT

  • DarkMaster7991

    Posted Apr 1, 2009 1:38 pm PT

    Lol obviously a april fools joke. I mean any pet....$1 a day.....plus it all looks fake....I would have belevied it because they annouced future DLC just last week but this is too absurd.

  • SevenOfEleven

    I hope this is not a stealth way for them to test out game ideas by floating them as April fool's pranks. April 2, they check the game boards/forums and thats their next new game idea.

    A buck a day to keep my pet alive, heck that crime against nature will be roaming the street for cash to support its habit.

  • Azu32

    Posted Apr 1, 2009 1:15 pm PT

  • RasutoSSAikou

    It sucks when April Fool jokes turn out to be good ideas.

  • jay_lee112084

    Posted Apr 1, 2009 1:04 pm PT
