Get Your Poodle On With Fable III's Dog Breeds DLC

Three more dog breeds are being introduced to Albion via download.

In a recent blog post titled "New Dog Breeds out now," Lionhead Studios announced that... new dog breeds are out now for Fable III.  
 
To get just a tad more specific, three new dog skins have been introduced to the game via DLC. For the mere price of 240 Microsoft Points, you can morph your unimpressive mutt into a Doberman Pincher, a Poodle, or a German Shepherd. 

Oh, and there's a "FREE" Santa hat available as well via download. Get your first look at all these fascinating additions just below.

I bet you say this about everything DLC related. Way to be edgy =D These days, DLC plans are made early enough that no, that shit probably wasn't in the retail package at any point. 
 
Also, is this better or worse than Horse Armor?

The dog pack sounds like a horrible value... But it's not nearly as bad as Tron's DLC... 800 points for a Sam Flynn multiplayer skin.... REALLY! REALLY!

Until they release a DLC that re-skins my dog into an eight-week old attack kitten, my wallet stays closed.

All I can really say is LOL. Why DLC like these is priced I don't even know. Stuff like new dog skins should already be in the game or for free.

What the...? I have absolutely no interest in Fable III (or the first two, really), but as an avid listener of the Bombcast, I'd say this is the last fucking thing this game needs to add to make it a better experience.

No, it's just "okay", which is basically unforgivable given how great the first two were.

Does the new dog skin do anything extra beneficial?  Or is this just for cosmetic purposes?

What a waste of money. Why don't they offer a decent game as DLC instead.

At least horse armor had an actual effect on the game... Dog skins seem to be completely cosmedic.

Yea, Peter is now on my shit list.  I once thought of him and Lionhead as a great company.  Now they plain suck, and he is a over promising babbling moron.

Agreed, I loved how they did the DLC in Fable2 & it made a lot of sense. Then again that game also made a lot of sense plus Chesty was creepy & mean where as in Fable3 kind of a pushover.

Why do people complain about DLC? What is someone who bought Fable 3 was like "I like the dog but I wish I had a poodle instead", are those people idiots for wanting a poodle? Are Lionhead stupid for supplying the Poodle? What is the problem? You don't have to buy it so why complain about it? Oh wait, I know why, because gamers(people in general)like to bitch about any and everything they can, like it keeps them alive or some shit.
