Twice during the game my wife just popped up in different towns. I think it was a glitch as they kept saying it was nice of me to be home when I didn't have a home there.

Microsoft and Lionhead have announced the first downloadable content pack for Fable 2, with the name Knothole Island. It's to be released in the middle of December, with a nice winter theme in the DLC. Price is 800p, and first images can be found inside.

Lionhead press release:
Fable II adventures continue with downloadable content and free pack to release mid-December 2008

The epic journey begun in Fable II, the fastest selling RPG on Xbox 360, is not over. Starting mid-December 2008, fans will be summoned back into Albion's service with the release of the Knothole Island downloadable content pack. The remote island of Knothole is dying: its golden sands and lush vegetation are covered with snow, its people freezing, its treasures buried. Only a hero can face the trials of the three shrines to bring back the sunshine.

Following its release on Xbox 360 on Oct. 21, more than 1.5 million units of Fable II flew off store shelves worldwide in the first two weeks, making it the most popular game, across all platforms, in the U.S. in October. With the release of the first Fable II downloadable content, available exclusively on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for 800 Microsoft Points, gamers will be invited to set sail for Knothole Island, where new quests, wondrous items and bizarre characters await.

Also in mid-December, fans everywhere will be able to enhance their Fable II experience with the release of a free Fable II downloadable pack exclusively on Xbox LIVE Marketplace. To engage in co-op gameplay with a player who has already downloaded the Knothole Island content, gamers will need to download the free pack. Both co-op players must download the Knothole Island (Premium) pack in order to play new quests and enjoy the complete Knothole Island co-op experience.

Free and premium downloaders will receive a show of gifts, including Knight's Boots, Assassins Gloves, a special Weight Loss Potion, collectible silver book and more. Players will also be able to check their standing in over 50 new Leaderboards on Lionhead.com.

As an additional treat for Fable II fans, Lionhead Studios and Microsoft Game Studios have created an all-new Albion dashboard theme in celebration of the launch of the New Xbox Experience. Fans who want to show off their Fable II pride can head over to Xbox LIVE Marketplace to download the Albion theme, available now for 250 Microsoft points

Sad thing is this will probley double the length of the game.

[Nick Tyndall]

Fable 2 ending was so, so dissapointing and the game was so short, I can finish it in two hours. Did not even get the story and was not ble to kill the final boss. Good game whilst playing it, but again Peter overhyped so many things.

STD's do nothing
Multiplayer if flawed
Story is short and not clear
No seasons
Where are these millions of poppies?
Crap ending

And can you even plant a tree and watch it grow?

[Who Really Cares?]

No and they never said you could.

And you can kill the end boss you simply have to press a button while his talking.

[Nick Tyndall]

No and they never said you could.

And you can kill the end boss you simply have to press a button while his talking.

1) He (Peter) did say you can plant a tree and it will grow
2) You can plant a tree and it will grow
3) The ending is crap and the chance to kill him is taken if you simply try and listen to what he is trying to say.

What is Lucians plans anyway?

[Mr. Frozen]

I didn't like the ending either. They should've made the other guy kill the boss when there was a long pause after his speech. It was kinda funny but still annoying.

[Riku Rose]

Well if you stay after the credits.

Molyneux is just sitting there and says thanks for the money and gives you the finger.

[Who Really Cares?]

1) He (Peter) did say you can plant a tree and it will grow

When making the first Fable.

Yeah, I remember there was a lot they said for the first fable... the ability to cut grass with your weapon was one I remember for example.

I hate when they hype it up, it just makes the whole experience a let down
