I'm on the beta and I downloaded it without any problems. Maybe it's because it's the UK page.

It's up on the Xbox marketplace aswell now, you can try there. It doesn't show on the preview of the "add-ons" section but when you actually go to the list of "add-ons" it's there.

Edit: I just looked on the 360 and it's there as well as the outfit, red setter etc we get for buying the game new. Turns out the outfit includes a kilt. If anyone can snap a shot of it when they get thiers, I'll rep whoever posts it. I probably wont get my copy until Wednesday at the earliest and want to see how it looks.

Any spoilers in the review? I want to read it but avoid spoilers.

Ever since GameTrailers totally spoiled the twist in Bionic Commando, I've not been too sure of watching reviews of games I'm trying not to spoil.

Nothing about the story. Surely spoiling the twist in Bionic Commando was attempting to do everyone a favour so they don't play that turd

I agree with the general overview, good game, but kinda disappointing. Once you get to be king/queen it gets kinda boring.

Just looked at the DLC section of the 360 marketplace and there was a bunch of Fable III DLC ranging from new areas and quests to dyes and outfits. 5 minutes later they had all been taken down.

Guessing they went up too early and had to take them down. I still don't have my copy anyway.

If you haven't already, I'd suggest phoning the place you bought it from and seeing if they can fix it for you. If you pre ordered and it's anything like pre ordering instore in the UK, they should have your name, phone number and address so there's proof you pre ordered and are entitled to the DLC. Dunno if that'll help, it depends on the shop, I guess.

It was likely a mistake on the part of whoever served you.

Be playing this later tonight or tomorrow. Won't co-op right away, gotta get a feel for the game. However, this time I'm open to wife hunting with another player present. Be there when I meet my wife!

- Combat is improved, but only slightly. This is more a nod to Fable 2's combat engine than a stab at Fable 3's. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Overall it's smoother and more responsive as far as multidirectional attacks are concerned (no-look attacks look cooler than ever). There's still a 'claymation' quality to the combat movements that, at this point, is pretty much Fable's 'thing'.

- Love the larger world areas. Should be fun traveling with a mate and taking on... wolves so far.

- Appreciate the streamlined magic system. While Fable 2's system was fairly straight forward, this simplifies it further and newbies should get into much quicker. The gauntlets are badass. Can't wait to mix them.

- The 'evolving' weapons gimmick is kinda cool, but I'm so far unconvinced that people will have different looking weapons. Right now my guns are effected by all the Hallowmen I killed. And I'm thinking, "People at this point killed just as much of these zombies," so I'm convinced a lot of people have bone handle guns. Perhaps this is something that will hit off after people go off on their own varied adventures. Named my sword the Triad Blade and the pistol, Death Dealer.

- My hero is a shirtless dude with bandit tattoos right now.

The GB crew spent a good amount of time on the podcast this week talking about how much fun they had with Fable II, and how much time they spent talking about it after it came out. Brad was ultra disappointed with the the late game, but didn't want to spoil it for anyone. They said the humor is still in full force and continues to be one of the highlights of the game.

If you preordered at GAME online, you should get an email today or tomorrow with a code I should think.

I just got my LE in the post. Couple things to point out.

1. Text is unreadable, which sucks. I have an at least 30" tv. It's standard def and my 360 is set to "SD" and "widescreen". HD wouldn't make a difference as some people on the LH forum with HD are saying they can't read the text either. Hoping that get's fixed ASAP. It's doable because Rare did it with Banjo-Kazooie: N&B.

2. Notifications pop up in a weird place. Rather than being told someone has signed in at the bottom of the screen, it's at the middle right of the screen.

3. I've only seen one but cutscenes look like they are a bit blurry and like things leave trails. I only saw one so far so I'm not totally sure on that.

4. I don't think we get a villager code. Go to the villager make and it says something about having to sign in so it can assign the created NPC to your gamertag.

Quick question. When you start the game does it automatically choose a save file from Fable II? I never got prompted to pick which Fable II Hero I would be the child of.

My text is readable (on a fancy hdtv), I kind of know what you mean about cutscenes, haven't attempted villager maker, and the notifications pop up on the right so that they don't cover vital text on the top or bottom of the screen if you have subtitles on.

Text is easily readable on an HDTV. Cutscenes are definitely off-looking compared to gameplay. My village creator code was given to me by the clerk. You enter it at www.xbox.com/fable3 in the npc creator. Didn't ask me either. Doubt it matters too much about the Fable 2 save..

Came online to make a post about the game and just this second got my villager code in my email. So that's that sorted then.

I changed my 360 settings to "normal" tv instead of "widescreen" and everything is readable now, thankfully. Only problem is achievements and other pop-ups are huge but that's no big deal. I can play the game and that's all that matters, really.

The cutscenes aren't blurry either with the 360 set to normal tv instead of widescreen.

I'm liking the game so far. It's definitely moving a lot slower than Fable II did which isn't a bad thing. Anyone know how long it takes before you notice changes to your weapon? I'm guessing morphing takes longer than I thought.
All in all, I'm liking what I've played.

My Hero is currently wearing the Scottish outfit minus the hat. I want to dye it red and black and I have the red dye but black dye is future DLC. I'm not sure if it's in the game and just really rare but I know for a fact we can buy it as DLC. It was among the 6 or so DLC items but up too soon and removed again.

As for weapons etc. I'm carrying around a hammer (and using flourishes as much as I can) and a rifle but can't think of a name for them yet. Going to wait until they morph a little. My dog is a red setter called Storm.

Weapons only really morph when you level up melee/range/magic in the path to rule stuff. Kinda disappointing.

I've come across a minor hitch. I can't dye clothes anymore because of a glitch.

When I now try to apply a dye, the game switches from the dye screen to the regular gameplay camera but with the list of dyeable clothing parts still listed and the X,A,Y buttons listed as "Dye". I can move around the room but everything has dissappeared. Jasper, clothing etc are all invisable.
I can use my magic and weapons in the room but I can't leave the room at all. So I have to exit to the dashboard and reload my game.

I've tried 2 different dyes on different parts of the same outfit and it keeps happening.

I can now dye clothing again but I've been hit by another, much more common, glitch. Mute Jasper.

He doesn't speak anymore at all. Even if you walk over to him and press A to interact and A again to have explain the room you're in.

LH have said they are working on a patch to fix all these glitches and have set up a webpage where you can report bugs and glitches you find. I'm hoping the patch is out really soon.

How long doe it usually take to get a patch out? Is it closer to day, weeks or months?

So far the LH forum has had people, including me, mentioning Mute Jasper which is really common, my dye glitch, some people getting stuck in other sanctury rooms, some getting stuck in the map screen. Those are the ones I know of but I'm avoiding as many threads as I can to avoid spoilers so there could be a couple more.

That's actually why I've not taken part in multiplayer. I saw Kalyx running around but didn't invite him to my world or join his because some people said they were fine until they tried MP and then Jasper stopped talking.

Although some people claimed MP might actually fix Jasper. So I didn't want to risk glitching out anyone elses save.

IGN has an article on why this game "fails". While I think "fail" is overboard, it actually has very good points on the game's technical aspects.

How did she die? Did she just keel over and die or did someone kill her?

Kids never died in Fable II so this is new.

I'm still a while away from becoming king, myself.

It's actually very possibly a glitch that weaves into the story arch picture perfectly. I can't go into details without some overall spoilers, but let's just say it seems she was a war casualty. I was seriously pissed, and my early kinghood was spent trying to see if she was out there. She's definitely gone, I have no family, and I'm taking it out on everyone.

If she just vanished, I'd guess it was a glitch. If you didn't see her die or get some kind of notification then it'd be a glitch.

It's a lot harder to form a relationship with anyone in this game so I'd imagine actually reaching marriage and having biological children would be a little more time consuming than in Fable II which is why you adopted, I guess. Not a bad thing but interaction was better when I could pick what I did with people. Now it just seems to basically boil down to random "good interaction" and "bad interaction". I don't want to introduce myself to a smelly male begger by ballroom dancing with him but that seems to be the one that comes up the most. I thought every new person you met would start with a hand shake and work from there.

Yeah the emotes are random picked and the process is dumbed down overall. Love the hand holding mechanic, used it to take my daughter for a stroll around town. Should have expanded the idea of touch beyond holding hands and 'interaction mode' hugging. Something like rough housing with a friend, again using the L trigger, and carrying on like that as you wish (I should be able to assign L Trigger actions from a radial menu).

It would seem they took the simplification thing too far, but at the same time introduced some cool mechanics. Looks like Fable 4 should try bringing it all together.
