Really tempted on the Xbox Bundle. Is Fable 3 any good? It seems to always be included in a bundle.

@NPTran23 It's not too bad. From what I've played, it's not as good as Fable II (which I liked a lot).
However, give it a shot, if you don't like it, trade it in cause it comes on a disc while Halo is a download code

Fable 1 was good. After fable 1 it became a theme park. Fable 1 had best story and combat.

Fable 2 was a fun game. Fable 3 is a good experience. Especially when it's free.

Boring is subjective.

@HaVoK308 I really like fable 1. Even replayed it affter a game ending bug right at the end prevented me from finishing it. But fable 2 bored me and I never wend back.

Doubtful you can trade it in... since it's included in bundles, that means it pretty much has no retail value... You'd probably get like $1 from a store like Gamestop.

Gamestop is such garbage I just don't understand it. Today I went to Gamestop to trade in: Call of Duty: Black Ops, Infamous (1), and BlazBlue: Continuum Shift. I wanted to use the credit to get Super Mario Land 3D. I got something like $25.34 (weird number) and I thought that was pretty decent but I also wanted to try BestBuy's trade in program to see what they were like. I ended up getting $39.99 for the three games and ended up only paying about 3 dollars because of tax. Seriously people, stop going to Gamestop. It's garbage.

I usually don't sell my games but I'm broke and I really wanted to get Super Mario Land 3D. On bestbuy's trade in website you get an estimate on about how much you would get for certain games it added up to only $30 bucks on the website (still $5 more than GameStop) but at the store they gave me $39.99 probably because the website it only shows estimates. But nope and you don't really need anything, they just asked for my driver's license for some weird reason. Also if you sign up for their magazine it's about $15 bucks a year you get a magazine that gives you information on games and such, a couple hundred dollars worth of coupons (he showed me the magazine and there was a coupon for like $15 off of Resistance 3) and I think 10%-20% more on trades. It's a pretty nice deal with or without that magazine subscription. I just can't see why people go to Gamestop anymore.

They ask for your ID because places are starting to input pawnshop laws. Which are they need to have your address and such incase the item you sold was stolen so they can report you to the cops. In my city we didn't get it enacted untill Entertainmart came to town and had a police raid where 70% of the stores inventory was stolen.

The whole 'Fable 1 was the best in the series' is like one of the most nostalgic-based arguments. Fable 1 had the best story, but imo Fable 2 improved on everything else like map size, combat and NPC interaction via the expression wheel. Fable 3, while I enjoyed what I played from it which was a lot, is far inferior to Fable 2. The dog ai is dumber, the combat is very slow and less fluid than 2, and while the maps were a lot bigger most were very linear. And the NPC interaction is worse because the wheel is gone and it's a one on one interaction since you cants do expressions freely anymore. And the visual change on your hero based on your morality, which should be one of the reasons to even play Fable, are pretty much gone completely.
But all Fable games have that point where once you've beaten the quests, it really just becomes a Midieval Sims. Okay, rant over...I'll just go back to my chair on the veranda...

There was also really no incentive to find new weapons late in the game, since they required even more grinding to level them higher than your current weapon.

I love the new super mario game. Owning a 3DS without Super Mario 3D Land right now is a crime.

The military exchanges around here were selling 4GB Xbox's for $100. It was probably the #1 thing I saw people buying, the 2nd thing being the $100 Kinect bundle. I debated internally whether or not to buy my 4th Xbox, untill there was one left.

I reasoned with myself that I needed a new controller anyways, so I may as well get a whole new Xbox. xD

@eat it

lol i had the page open for hours. when i saw the count down clock getting close to being open i sat and just watched so that the instant it opened up i could click the button. Funny thing is not even 1 second after i clicked the button the progress bar (showing the % bought already) had jumped to 15% lol. By the time i was done with checkout and looked back at the page it was sold out lol
