'Fable' Becomes Xbox Live Deal of The Week

by Rainier on March 13, 2009 @ 3:48 p.m. PDT

Choose the path of righteousness or dedicate your life to evil. Muscles expand with each feat of strength; force of will increases with each work of wit. Obesity follows gluttony, skin tans with exposure to sunlight and bleaches bone-white by moonlight. Earn scars in battle and lines of experience with age. Each person you aid, each flower you crush, each creature you slay, will change this world forever. Fable: Who will you be?

Starting March 16, Xbox LIVE Gold members can enjoy “Fable,” the beloved RPG classic from Peter Molyneux and Lionhead Studios, for only 800 Microsoft Points – one third off the retail price.

After you’ve had your fill ‘o “Fable,” check out the “Battlestations Midway: Iowa Mission Pack” Game Add-on, offered at 20 percent off during the week of March 23. The end of the rainbow is a huge 50 percent discount on the award-winning Xbox LIVE Arcade title, “Alien Hominid HD,” available starting March 30 for only 400 Microsoft Points!
