Fable II 'Knothole Island' DLC price slashed photo

Microsoft’s latest Deal of the Week isn’t a stunner, but it’ll do. Starting today until July 6, you can purchase Lionhead Studios’ Fable II downloadable content “Knothole Island” for the low, low price of 560 Microsoft Banana Bucks.

The content is normally priced at 800 Microsoft Banana Bucks. So, this deal will save you a whopping 240 Banana Bucks, which is roughly equivalent to 70 Mars Credits, 400 Gil, or three Earth dollars. Not bad.

If you’re unfamiliar with the downloadable content, check out our exploration of it. As a whole we liked it, however, it would have been even better if Lionhead added potions that made our hero’s feet and hands larger. We like big appendages.

My greatest hope is that one day they'll announce a PC port, especially one that's kind of like the whole "Lost Chapters" thing they did. A PC port would likely look better and load faster to boot.

Hmm, maybe this will be like when they slashed the price of the Halo 3 Legendary Map Pack, in that I'll buy it with the intent to play it eventually... I haven't even started my copy of Fable II yet.

Killatia, your mileage may vary, but I found Fable II to be more of an extended rental. I got it from Goozex a month ago and sent it back out within a few weeks. Once you get through the main quest and interact with most of the NPCs, there isn't a whole lot of stuff to do.

It's still a very fun game, with a ton of clever dialogue that actually made me laugh out loud at points. But once you burn through that, you might be looking for something else. If you want a substantial game with JRPG roots, you might be into Lost Odyssey.
