Several top gaming sites as well as the Lionhead forums are reporting a game breaking glitch within Fable II. The glitch appears during the quest entitled “Monk’s Quest”, in which players are sent to speak to the Abbot of the Temple of the Light in Oakfield.
Once there, if players run into the temple and speak with the Abbot, but leave the region before the conversation is finished, players will be unable to resume the quest which prevents them from completing the main story of the game.
Lionhead is aware of the problem and they’re currently working on the issue.
In the meantime, Lionhead advises all players to make sure you finish the conversation with the monk, as well as the cut scene before you leave the area. Currently, there is no fix for those who have already encountered the glicth. If you’re the type that doesn’t follow the story and just plays the game, then it serves you right to be stuck with this glitch! Lionhead should have a fix for it soon enough.
Another known glitch is one which all experience and gold will be wiped from a co-op character when playing with another character. Lionhead hopes to address both of these issues in a title update, but currently advises players to only play in co-op mode until after the childhood stage of the game has been completed.
In the gaming world, the word exclusive just doesn’t mean the same thing it does everywhere else. Games which are said to be exclusive usually turn out to mean exclusive for a short period of time, before another version is released on a different console.
That’s why when exclusive content for Tomb Raider: Underworld was announced for the Xbox 360, many people scoffed, turning their noses up. Most thought it would be simply codes which would unlock content which already exists on the disk.
Crystal Dynamics’ creative director, Eric Lindstrom has set the gaming world straight by stating that the downloadable content they’re making for Microsoft is especially tailed for the Xbox 360 console. The content will continue the story-line of the main game and will add around six hours via two downloads. The game is scheduled to be released on November 18th. Both pieces of downloadable content, entitled “Beneath the Ashes” and “Lara’s Shadow” will arrive before Christmas, so within a month of the game’s original release.
It’s really no surprise that Gears of War 2 would be verboten in Deustchland, considering the original game shared the same fate.
The game was deemed too violent for release in Germany, and it will not be seen on retail shelves anywhere. This verdict comes even with Microsoft’s Gears 2 family friendly mode. The most surprising part of this announcement is that the game has been banned in Japan, but no reason for the ban has been cited.
The first game wasn’t banned, but the second is. Microsoft has given no indication on why the game received a ban, and Japan isn’t coming forward either. Oh well. At least the rest of the world supports the COG army.
