Download Fable 2 Free??

[Da-Master-of-Puppets]

So today I decided to check out all the new content on the Xbox Live Marketplace and noticed a number of new Games on Demand. So I had a quick flick through them, and when I had a look at Fable 2... I found it was downloadable for free!

So I decided to have a look and see if it's legit. I downloaded it and I've been playing it for about half an hour and so far it seems like the full game. However it's not as smooth as I remember it being when I rented it and the people seem to twitch a little every now and then. But aside from that it works okay, I'm just wondering why the hell would they be giving this game out for free?

What you downloaded was the first part of the game.
It was only 1-something Gigabyte.

Have fun with your demo.

Well why was it listed under games on demand and not game demos? And it seems way too long for a demo.

Fuck downloading it, I thought the episodes would be like 400 points but each episode costs 1200 FUCKING POINTS. SERIOUSLY. just get it pre-owned dude. Thats what i did.

Regardless, it's just a portion of the game. They released it in like five parts, and the first one is free. I still remember when they launched this, and I thought it was really boring.

No, Fable 2 can be downloaded into chapters. I don't know how many there are but the first ones free then you gotta pay for the other chapters of the game.

Answer: because it is the game, but it is only part of it. The game is split into Episodes, to allow someone to download a sampler for it, and not the full thing. So yeah. You honestly thought a 1GB file could be a full game though? It should be 5.-something GB minimum if it's the full thing, I think.
