<a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/halo-wars-and-fable-ii-now-classics">Eurogamer</a> reports that two new games have been added to the Xbox 360 Classics budget line in EU territories. The two games are <em>Fable II</em> and <em>Halo Wars</em>. If you need a refresher, <em>Fable II</em> is Lionhead's brilliant, charming adventure that we <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2009/01/01/joystiqs-top-10-of-2008-fable-2/">kind of liked back in 2008</a>. <a href="http://joystiq.com/tag/halo-wars"><em>Halo Wars</em></a> on the other hand, serves as both the first <em>Halo </em>RTS spin-off and the <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2009/01/29/ensemble-co-founder-says-goodbye-as-studio-closes/">swan song of Ensemble Studios</a>. The games can now be had for the tempting price of &pound;19.99 ($31) apiece. Both are worth picking up -- just be sure to watch out for those Warthog rushes.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2010/02/05/halo-wars-fable-2-join-europes-xbox-360-classics/">Halo Wars, Fable 2 join Europe's Xbox 360 Classics</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Fri, 05 Feb 2010 22:15:00 EST.

Microsoft has announced that <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/halo-3"><em>Halo 3</em></a>, <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/mass-effect"><em>Mass Effect</em></a> and <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/pgr4"><em>Project Gotham Racing 4</em></a> will soon join the Xbox 360 Classics range in EMEA regions. The three will join the <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2008/04/23/gears-forza-2-viva-pinata-become-uk-classics/">Classics club</a> March 20, when they will see their prices reduced to a mere &pound;19.99. This is normally the part of the post where we would tell you a little something about each title, giving you important information to help you make the best purchasing decision. Chances are you've probably heard of all of these by <em>now</em> but who are we to argue with tradition?<br /><br />One of them has cars and the other two have lots of aliens and shooting. The last two might sound similar, but only one of them has <em>really</em> long <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjJu-s2urWU">elevator rides</a>.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2009/03/16/halo-3-mass-effect-pgr4-become-classics-march-20/">Halo 3, Mass Effect, PGR4 become Classics March 20</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Mon, 16 Mar 2009 14:30:00 EST.
