So GTA is not exclusive at all.  At this stage, publisher allegiances are exactly what they were last gen among the three systems.

Obviously, the difference is that, while PS3 and X360 developers set back the clock and rehash old ideas with fancy graphics, Nintendo and its developers are creating new experiences.

Regarding Fable 2, of those 3 million, how many will buy a sequel? I bought it reduced and stopped playing after probably 4 or 5 hours with it. It felt pointless and boring.

I am part of that 3 million, but am not excited about Fable 2 except for, wait for it, it\'s probably pretty.

Me..

I loved Fable - was it limited? Yes! Did I still enjoy it? Yes!

Will I buy it? No. Why? Because I don\'t own an Xbox 360.

Fable was over hyped though, no doubt about it. Here is hoping that P.M doesn\'t hype this one up so much. Let the game speak for itself, don\'t make false claims.

What kind of logic is that? It\'s a sequel, it won\'t be limited to the people who bought the previous game.

It\'s my opinion that because Fable sucked, the people who bought it before should be less inclined to buy it again. It\'s sound logic.

And you\'re right that sales of Fable 2 will not be limited to those who bought it previously. Nice of you to add that, but don\'t confuse that with the point I was trying to make. Logically.

No, you are speaking like it\'s limited to the 3 million and that everyone of them thought it sucked.

Do you understand the words that my keyboard happens to type?

I won\'t get into this, but yes I do. And I understand you miss my simple point which is Fable sucked and people like me who bought it, won\'t bother with the second.

In fact I just reread what I originally posted about this and at that point I was just talking about me only and I asked a rhetorical question.

I say let\'s move on, there\'s much cooler stuff taking place than Fable.

Oh, Fable tanked? Oh man you have proven me wrong.

Yes, you did with your credible sources and detailed information. Nice one, high five.

Wait, hold on.

You didn\'t.

Link 2 (One month after release)

Link 3 (one month after release)

Ahahahahahahaha

wrong (not that i even believe that number), thats why Peter Molyneux later publicly apologized for overhyping Fable.

i was bored

NOTE "AND WINDOWS"

exaggerating is bad, m\'kay?

It only surpassed 2 million sales? BOY, is MY face red! That totally is not a success guys.

also

You are an idiot. We are talking about the game Fable.

The game Fable. No platforms discussed.

Being stupid is... well fine for you because it\'s amusing. m\'kay?

why did it sell that many at only the start? HYPE
why did they port it to windows a year after the xbox release?
noone, bought a copy after the first month after they realized how bad it really was
who was the last dev to publically apologize for thier game?

please stop smoking so much pot, it\'s made you retarded

You definitely are an idiot.

What you are saying is all besides the point. It sold well and that\'s that you fucking moron.
