Fable: Lost Chapters confirmed for Xbox


Recommended Posts

July 8, 2005 - Microsoft Game Studios announced that the enhanced version of Lionhead's bestselling action RPG entitled Fable: The Lost Chapters will be landing on the Xbox this fall. The title was already in development for the PC and is an estended version of the Xbox game that includes heaps of new content.

Remember all of the locked doors, dead ends, and rumored quests in the original release? Well, Fable: The Lost Chapters opens up many of those areas and is one third longer than the original game. It includes an entire new land featuring the elusive dragon long thought to be hidden in the original release. Gamers will also experience new spells, armor, weapons, enemies, and expressions.

The question likely to be on everyone's mind is how this content will be made available. Microsoft currently has plans to release the game as a Platinum Hits title for the suggested retail price of $19.99. This is a joyous announcement for those who have never set foot in Albion, but the purchase may be a tough call for people who already bought the first game for full price.

33.3% is a much needed improvement but i still think it is too short, because i think fable has the replayability advantage over many other rpgs and that it could be drastically improved if the game was more consuming and needed more time and effort to complete.

Hopefully fable 2 will have those improvements!

Should be offered free to the people that already shelled out the cash for the game on the Xbox (or a small fee with access offered via Xbox live). Not that that would affect me in any way since I don't own an Xbox, but I mean, it IS more like what the game SHOULD have shipped with rather than some kind of expansion to the game.

Plus, even with it coming to the PC I don't think I'll be getting it.

    • I don’t get why if I bought the game on the last get I needed to pay $40 to upgrade to the new version in the first place and people who love the game and play a lot would have upgraded already so this is just PR and a chance to grab new players who forgot the game long time ago I think
    • The term "use" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that headline. "Use" can mean opening ChatGPT occasionally to ask for the definition of a word or information about a specific topic. If you frame the question around how many people use it as a daily driver in their work or personal lives, that number is a lot smaller. Those are the people who pay for AI. Nearly everyone else is happy to use it for free, but doesn't see enough value in it to pay for it.
    • No support for Windows Hello!
    • I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
