For those who are planning on buying Fable 2 for the Xbox 360, make sure you waste dedicate some time soon to “Fable Pub Games”.  The Xbox Live mini games will be released tomorrow (August 13th), for 800 Microsoft points ($10).

Consider this before buying the mini games. The mini games come free  with the game, or free if you pre-order the game at any local game retailer. So why buy the mini games, if you can just pre-order Fable 2 at Gamestop like you should if you plan on playing as soon as it comes out. Personally, I think the mini games should be free even if you don’t pre-order.

Fable Pub Games allows you to play fictional gambling mini games. The benefit of playing Pub Games is that all of your winnings are converted to Fable 2 in-game experience. Basically, you have from now, to October 2st to stack up on experience without ever playing Fable 2. The down side is that if you accumulate debt, it will be transferred to your avatar as well.

There are 3 games to available for playing.

Keystone (a cross between Roulette and Crappes)

Spinnerbox (a slot machine game)

Fortune’s Tower (a card game)

So go out and pre-order Fable 2 and take advantage of Pub games.

We have been kind of dry since Comic-Con started. I apologize for that. We should be getting back into the swing of things tomorrow. I had to play catch up with a few things today so it left little time to post.

So during Comic-Con, the folks at Xbox Live picked me out of the crowd for my costume and asked me to do a little video for them. You can check it out here

It made my day and
