Posted October 28, 2010 My online pre-order for the collector's edition wouldn't be sent before tomorrow so I cancelled it. Hopefully I can still get the pre order at the Game store. Just bought it online as well in case Game wouldn't have one for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 28, 2010 Found all my pre-order materials, have the transport monies ready. I think the first port of call will be a shoe shop, then to GAME. Think i may need to pick-up some points and a Live card as well. Jeez, gonna be expensive out. You're buying it in-store? Might go have a look before class see if it's cheap or not and pick it up tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, had issues with my bank and GAME with other pre-orders i made. For some reason, my bank didn't want to let anything go to GAME. No matter what really. So as a precaution, i ordered in-store.

Bought it, finally got it through shopto after finding out they don't support chrome I managed to get it sorted through IE. Phew. Now to get home tomorrow before it turns up!

Posted October 28, 2010 I have it... right now... but I can't play it... ... I wish I could but I failed to complete Fable II last night and I won't allow myself to play Fable III until II is finished, of course I should have finished it lonnnng before now but then I could say that about a lot of games. *stares at the ever-spiralling tower of Xbox games still to be completed* >> Ah well, guess I'll be playing it tomorrow then, at least I know that it's there waiting for me, but for now it taunts me so... argh! must finish Fable II :p oddly enough though I didn't have the same problem when Fable II came out as I never actually bothered to buy the first Fable due to not really being able to afford many games back then but now I feel strangely compelled to go back and play it someday soon... ... after completing Fable III of course ... after completing Fable II... argh! *leaves thread* [/fail] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 Does the first hard choice matter? I feel so bad about it...I'm actually considering starting a new game and pick the other choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 I have no idea, but i recall Lionhead and Stephen Fry saying to play the game as we wish to, not as the game wants you to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 Oh my god, Oh my god.... Collectors Edition is sat at home waiting for me, just arrived, and here i am in work.... HATE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 Does the first hard choice matter? I feel so bad about it...I'm actually considering starting a new game and pick the other choice. It will but to be fair I'm slightly suspicious that it'll come back later in the game. How pretty is the collectors edition?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 It will but to be fair I'm slightly suspicious that it'll come back later in the game. How pretty is the collectors edition?! Il post some snaps later, just got mine now. Along with all the pre order bonuses inc villager tool codes. I like Game, always giving me extra. With trade ins, i payed £20 for all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 I think the CEs awesome. The box looks very cool, so does the coin. The box looks like an ancient tome and with a secret room in it. Loving the Fable card deck as well. Maybe I will use the coin to make a few hard decisions :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With trade ins, i payed £20 for all. Nice I love it, so pretty, I was giggling badly when I got it this morning, it's cost me a fortune (£52) but it's totally worth the extra bit for everything.

Posted October 29, 2010 So.... What are these 'packs' im reading about on websites... Landlord Pack Family Pack etc etc..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 You get them in the Road to Rule. The family pack lets you marry and have children and the landlord lets you buy houses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) I couldn't believe it when i did get to GAME, they gave me the CE and the slip for the Villager Tool as well. I thought it was online only to get that. Anyway, here are the snaps of me unboxing it all.

Posted October 29, 2010 I can't wait to get home and see what the Collector's Edition and all the parts look like... ...never mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 Couldn't help myself, sorry dude. Hey, at least the DLC is a mystery for you to discover. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 I'm just yanking your pulley (or whatever the expression is). The physical contents of the collector's edition, achievements and the village maker is pretty much all I know about the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 Thats all i know, well i know all the DLC as well. Havn't even started the game yet. Got Good News to watch yet, then dinner then Fable III for a while. Village Maker code worked first time, i know of people whose codes didn't work. I probably won't meet my villager until Brightwall anyway, thats where i said she was born.

Posted October 29, 2010 Wow. Even after those pictures, the stuff managed to spoil me. The quality of everything is superb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 Hurray for collectors' editions which people open and play :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 Exactly, very very nice, I'm so happy with my purchase even though I'm broke now (well no I'm not, but I can't buy other stuff I wanted now haha). The game is excellent, I'm loving the side quests. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 29, 2010 Damn you people for making this sound good! I can't really afford it and really shouldn't buy it given the amount of work for Uni I have to do... but I think I'll go and buy it tomorrow when I'm out. I really must stop spending money.
