    What I don't get is why do they release a strat guide for £19.99 when you can just go to gamefaq's or something

    Because its Microsoft and the like money.

    Been years since I got one of thouse, IMO Fable is better played with out one.

    Hah, I've never understood the appeal of these strategy books. It seems so much more fulfilling to discover the techniques and puzzles of a game yourself — it's borderline cheating.

    The only time where those books are kind of cool is when they're full of exclusive concept art and stuff, but I don't know if they still do that.

    They always put in a bunch of stuff you can only find with the guide. Probably just to help sell the guide. This doesn’t sit well with my OCD.

    Reviewers usually get code a few iterations behind and operate under the assumption the bugs will be fixed. I’ve heard a lot of people complaining of crashes and a couple who had to restart because of a bugged quest that prevents further progression. This really annoys me, I've never had a single problem with a console games crashing or having game breaking bugs... until this generation. Where we have net access and hard drives, so even console games are getting released with a "patch it later" attitude.

    Like usual, MS won't admit there's a PC port, but they keep spamming Rock Paper Shotgun with news and info anyway so :-|

    Its a lot of fun so far. Sort of thows you out there once you get out of 101 but I supose that fits the theme of the game. I have noticed some crap AI where people will start walking into walls and that sort of thing but apart from that its good.
