360 - Fable II - Fable II LE Code Solution Live - Microsoft Is Watching Some purchasers of the Fable II Limited Edition last week were surprised to find the promised DLC codes absent from their packages. Now Microsoft has set up a system to get the codes out to LE owners, which can be found here, but be warned - Microsoft is keeping an eye out for those trying to scam the system by requesting codes without having purchased the LE. Lionhead community manager Sam Van Tilburgh

So everyone who is emailing with tips regarding free limited edition DLC for everyone might want to rethink that idea. Not sure what measures they could possibly take, but the warning certainly sounds ominous, doesn't it?

"We are incredibly sorry and apologize to anyone frustrated by this process. We have been focused on ensuring that our North American LCE customers impacted by this retail issue are quickly taken care of and receive their codes in a timely manner. It was the quickest solution we could implement to address the issue. Microsoft will be monitoring submissions from users looking to abuse the system but I can't discuss what those measures specific to this solution are."

360 - Fable II - Edge: Lionhead Discusses UK Development and Fable 2 Edge writes: "In a matter of days Fable 2 has become a huge success story for UK-based developer Lionhead. Yesterday it climbed straight to the top of the UK charts, becoming the first Microsoft title to do so since Halo 3. Sales figures also show it has become the fifth-fastest-selling game in UK history, outselling the original Fable's launch-week performance by a ratio of nearly 4:1.

Those figures alone are enough to make any developer, publisher and shareholder utterly delighted, yet Fable 2 has done something more than please those involved with it. Fable 2 has become a symbol of success in the context of discontent from within the UK game development sector.

"I think Fable 2 shows that UK studios have the talent, drive and collective strength of character to focus on innovation, craft and mood rather than simply playing safe and churning out something approved by numerous committees of grey men in greyer suits," the game's design director Dene Carter told Edge. "Ultimately, the big franchises have to come from somewhere. You don't create money-making IP just by playing catch-up.'"

360 - Fable II - The Great Fable 2 Achievement Conspiracy Dan Webb writes:

"It is with great regret that I write this news story; especially after things started so positively for Fable 2 and its hugely original achievement list. Let me first point out that in no way shape or form does this affect Fable 2 as a game, because in the end it's still an amazing experience that I recommend to everyone."

360 - Fable II - Joystiq: Microsoft will email your missing Fable 2 DLC codes As we reported the day of its launch, some many copies of the Fable 2 Limited Collector's Edition were shipped without their precious DLC voucher card, which, among other goodies, let players unlock "Hal's Armor." Microsoft initially told purchasers who found themselves sans-card to call the company's 800 support line; it now has a support page from which anyone with a valid Windows Live ID can request the codes via email.

360 - Fable II - Fable 2 "Criss Angel Glitch" Video Glitch? Ability you gain as a good character? Shout out to the world's greatest real wizard besides Dumbledore? Jonathan Zungre of Ripten doesn't really know, but his buddy's morally good monk character in Fable 2 started inexplicably hovering inches above the ground with his arms up, much like Criss Angel does every day with just the strength of his will.

And the fat monk didn't lower his arms or stop levitating when he went to a new area or aimed the crossbow either. Click that link to see the weirdness.
