Fable II is an Action Role-Playing Game (RPG) That Truly Allows Players to Live the Life They Choose in the Newly Expanded Open World of Albion.

The limited collector's edition includes a double amaray case with bonus disc of new behind-the-scenes making of video, a LIVE trial card, and additional in-game content (an Xbox LIVE account is required to access the limited collector's edition bonus in-game content).

Fable II is the true sequel to the wildly successful original that sold more than 3 million copies, offering even more choices and building on the core gameplay theme of "Fable," where a player’s every decision continually defines whom they become. "Fable II" is an action role-playing game (RPG) that truly allows players to live the life they choose in an unimaginably open world environment.

Set 500 years after the original, "Fable II" will provide gamers with an epic story and innovative real-time gameplay, including a massive amount of freedom and choice to explore a vast collection of dungeons, catacombs and caves in the world of Albion.

Features
A Hero's Best Friend: This groundbreaking addition to the game is integral to the theme of unconditional love in Fable II. A player's canine companion will act as friend, compass and protector. Players must merely feed their pooch and he will love unconditionally, creating a bond that sets up emotion-filled journeys throughout this magical world.
A Land Far, Far Away: Gamers will revisit the newly expanded world of Albion more than 500 years after the events of the original Fable, where they are free to explore the landscape and openly roam the countryside. For the right price, every house, hut, dungeon and castle is for sale. Players can witness how the world grows and changes in response to their decisions in incredible and unique ways as they rediscover Albion as if for the first time.
Choices, Consequences: The innovative gameplay pioneered in the original Fable provided gamers with a never-before-seen level of immersion in a truly interactive world. Fable II expands upon the scope and depth of the Xbox classic by adding incredible new features and creating a wider, more complex kingdom of limitless choices and consequences. Players will have the option to play as a man or woman, get married, have children, and live a life of their own design -- all leading to different consequences.
Experience the World Together: For the first time in the Fable series, gamers can experience the expansive and immersive world of Fable II with friends, using the new and exciting Dynamic Co-op Mode, which brings the long-awaited multiplayer function to the world of Fable II.
Fight with Ease: Fable II pioneers a new combat system designed to allow players to truly master hand weapons such as swords and maces, ranged combat weapons such as crossbows and guns, and an entirely new magic system. These three disciplines, while very accessible, are also amazingly deep, and allow players to mix combat styles and become everything from master swordsman to skilled ranger to evil magic wielder, each using a different single button on the Xbox 360 controller.
The Limited Collector's Edition of Fable II Includes a Bonus DVD with a 'Making-Of' Feature and Art Gallery; Bonus In-Game Content (Requires Xbox Live Account), Including "The Hall of the Dead" Dungeon, "The Wreckager" Legendary Cutlass Weapon, and Spartan Armor and Energy Sword; and a 48-Hour Xbox Live Gold Trial Card - with Xbox Live Gold, players can show off their individual hero by inviting friends into their unique version of Albion or they can visit their friends' Albion, and earn additional gold, experience and renown to take back into their own.

    5 of 5 This Game Is Horrible... Saturday, December 20, 2008
    Hayden Dissappointed Blair from Idaho  
    I Only said it was good so people could actually find this review... When first purchasing fable 2(limited edition) from buy.com I found out I got a copy that didn't have the DLC Card(which had the spartan armour,sword,and extra content) and buy.com offered no help whatsoever and apparently anyone can ask for some codes on xbox.com, so they'er worthless, and also after 7 hours of gameplaying I encountered a glitch and now i have to start the whole game over from start, this is just one of few glitches that can cause you to resart the game, Please just rent this game, and if you must buy it don't get the limited edition the only difference is a dvd that tells you about everything that wasn't included in the special edition... so shame on Buy.com,Shame on lionhead studios, and shame on Microsoft. Heed my warning... or just look on forums, it sucks...

    5 of 5 Winning Sucessor Friday, November 21, 2008
    Josh from Sacramento, CA  
    Fable 2 collectors edition is definitely worth the extra little bit for the in-game items. You also get a code for a free version of 'Pub Games' (a xbox live arcade game) if you have not already purchased it. The graphic improvements from the first game are incredible. The combat system is very easy to catch on to, and just large mobs seem epic with a nice use of slow motion on critical hits. This game can be finished within 4 hours, but the side quests and everything extra in the world can take 20-40 hours more! Being able to purchase houses, businesses, take up wives, have children, and all of the customization that is available for your character makes the replay value through the roof. I liked the first Fable, and its idea; Fable 2 feels far more polished and satisfying to play, and 10x more fun.

    4 of 5 Not as good as the first one Monday, November 17, 2008
    A Gamer from Little Rock, AR  
    I bought the limited edition and found it lacking. I thought that the added bonus in the game was really just something to get me to spend the extra cash. As far as the actual game goes, it has a good storyline and great graphics, but I found that it loaded slowly at times and experienced a few freezes. If you play straight through the main mission, it does not take long to complete and it never is really much of a challenge. As a pro, this game has a ton of stuff to do. From taking on different jobs (bartender, blacksmith, hit man, etc.) to getting married and having kids, there are so many "real life" options. Overall, I enjoyed the game but found it less entertaining than the first.

    4 of 5 Fun Game! Friday, November 14, 2008
    Thrice from Virginia  
    Likes: The gameplay is very fun. I've never played the previous Fable game, but that was not necessary to enjoy the game. Co-op is fun, specially since it's local co-op. Replay value is very high, since you can do anything you want in the world, and not focusing solely on the primary quest. There are tons of sidequests. Dislikes: Bugs and glitches. An example is after killing an enemy you sometimes see it fluttering and blinking halfway in a rock or in the air... Interaction with your dog isn't very accurate. Co-op could be better by allowing the second player to actually use their character and weapons rather than having a generic looking henchman and weapons. Overall: The game was very fun to play and I highly recommend.

    5 of 5 Absolutely Awesome!! Saturday, October 25, 2008
    Mike from Mandeville, Louisiana  
    This game is great! I am always afraid of sequels, because they can never make them right, but this game is perfect! The gameplay feels similar to the first Fable, with a few changes. The multiplayer co-op is awesome, but just a little lacking. You load up as a generic henchman (Male or Female, Good, Neutral, or Bad, Weapon Configuration, it's up to you), instead of your character when you join a game. If you have a profile assigned to the henchman, you will use the abilities that you earned in solo play. The xp and gold that you earn will be given to your profile(if you have one assigned to the character) and when you load up your character the next time you solo play, you get the xp and gold. The multiplayer camera is a bit hard to get used to(can't use right thumbstick to control camera in co-op mode), but if you enjoy it enough like I do, you'll get over it. Great game!!
