Curious. I know Fable III uses a controller but will have some Natal support. Does this mean that Natal may work on Windows PC's also?

I don't think so. Remember that not every console will have Natal either, so it will have to be an option that can be disabled to play the game.

If this is true, why in the hell do I keep supporting the xbox? Every "exclusive" get's ported with better features to the PS3 & PC later on down the line. I honestly feel like I've been shafted the last couple years, hell you pay for most of the development of GTA4 and we can't even keep that exclusive.

What are you talking about? Microsoft hardly supports Windows PC gamers anymore. A large majority of Microsoft games stay on Xbox. Only a select few get ported to Windows (Halo 2, Fable 1).

This was a typical error on old original xbox games. This is not going to happen simply because Fable 2 was never announced for PC and i doubt theyll make one for it. Lionhead Studios is the biggest xbox fan developer. Launching fable 3 without a proper sequel to Fable lost Chapters is out of the question.

damn I feel like a douche now. I think the reason there is no love for the female gender in a lot of video games is because most females don't play these type of games. I'm well aware that males and females game pretty much game equally in terms of hours played, but as to which games they play is mostly different than the male crowd. Honestly the only people girls have to blame for no love for them on the cover art of this game is themselves.

Fable 3 does cater to women in many ways though and you can have your own female character so I don't get what the big deal is. Maybe if they had a chick in the background making dinner or something the females wouldn't get so riled up. :P

I kid, I kid

On that note, while I was at Gamestop once (even though I hate the God damned place), I saw a hottie pre-ordering her copy of Fable II. My girlfriend likes it as well (who I also think is a hottie, of course) so yeah I think Fable appeals more to females than the average videogame. At least, that's how it appears to me firsthand.

Are you kidding? With those roguish good looks, I can't imagine they had anything BUT female players in mind! *swoon*

@ACosta

I don't think so. My girlfriend and I would be more than happy to look at another lovely lady instead. But yes, we're both big fans of the series, and god knows we're not the only ones.

Anyway, It is kind of lame to continuously get no representation in games whatsoever, be it via the media advertising for the game or in the game itself (thankfully not in this case). I do like the art, but I still wish there was a female adventurer on it too.

It's not like Lara Croft on a Tomb Raider case turns the guys off, so why leave one off here?

Let me get this straight you are a girl and you have a girlfriend... nice.

On a side note Kia is right guys, we should demand an attractive girl on the cover so that girls are properly represented, but i'll only buy it if she topless.

I think having two people on the cover would kind of undercut the image that they're going for. It would look like two people share the power, wheras in the game there's just one main character.

Now put it on Steam with a bundle of The Lost Chapters and I will buy it for the PC instead of renting it on the 360.

I hope this starts some dual platform games for pc and 360, microsoft has really left the pc gamer market in the dust and if this does well i think they might start put more games into the pipeline for pc.

Why are people even bothered? It's looking to be a great game, and the more people that get to play it the better.
