Rounding down our media blitz for the evening are screenshots and concept art for Fable 2. From developer Lionhead Studios, the upcoming Xbox 360 exclusive role-playing title is the sequel to the 2004 critically and commercially acclaimed game Fable on the original Xbox and PC.Along with the screens you can take a sneak peak at the artwork for the Limited Edition of Fable 2, which doesn't look at cool as the standard edition -- but it promises a bunch of additional items for your extra cash. Enjoy the screens, make a wallpaper of some kind or if you're feeling really creative you can utilize your Photoshop skills and use the heads of the X3F staff to make hilarious photos. it'll be like payback since most of us are playing the game tomorrow. Fable 2 is set to release this October.

Looks good, just to bad there is no female on the box art.

That LE box art has been available for a while now.

When the presser dropped for it when it was first announced, only last week, it wasn't included. So, I don't know how long its been made available.

It may not have been ages, but I definitely remember seeing it at least as early as when the pub games were announced. It's certainly not brand new anyway.

The Limited Edition was announced on July 7. Pub games were way back at GDC, so I don't know.

You wha?
Perhaps I'm going insane then - but I swear this boxart was either on X3F or Joystiq prior to E3!

Am I the only person who wants this game over Gears 2, Fallout 3, RE5?

Rob Bourne you are right the cover art had been available for a while now. i don't remember seeing it on either joystiq or x3f, but i did see it on amazon and the fable website over a week ago

I just want to know if they fixed the aging system where you were like 70 years old by the time you finished the game.
Wilhelm @ Jul 15th 2008 6:53PM
You only got older as you spent more experience and leveled up, but yeah.
I wasn't though, I was the nige age of 19 (might have been 18, whatever was the lowest) and completely maxed out. Good ol 'age glitch'.

So I tried to finally pre-order this today and ended up getting a Fallout 3 pre-order. Needless to say thats not nearly as good.
