I stumbled across this video on youtube today which shows what looks like the energy sword from halo as a usable weapon in fable II. I dont care too much about this since i probably wont use it (dont play fable to play halo) but i thought it was interesting. Who knows might be able to dress your hero up in master chief armor lol.

thats dumb

fits with the master chief equipment lol

I think it is just similar. :/

I don't think it is supposed to be a halo energy sword, they just look a bit similar. Here is a comparison:

The Fable one has a normal sword handle, and comes to a point at the end, the Halo one has two blades that do not come together, and has a weird funky futuristic handle. The shape is vaguely similar, but I'm sure Halo wasn't the first time that general shape was used for a sword.

Assuming this is real I'm hoping it's a deliberate nod to Halo, but it does look quite a bit like plagrism on the developers part.

Pretty damn stupid.

It IS the energy sword by the way. You get that and Minstral Chief armour with the limited editon copy of the game.
And i'm so gonna be wearing/using them! :D

hahahahaaaa

No doubt that is an energy sword. I think that's pretty sweet just like how MGS4 had the Altair costume. I hope there are other nods to games in Fable 2.

I'm a bit disappointed that it's not identical to the Halo sword, but it's close enough. I wonder how you obtain it. Surely you don't just find an alien sword in your local shop?

Am I looking at Soul Calibur IV?

"thats dumb"

its in the limited edition,
several sites have confirmed this

It really doesn't fit the game, and seems like  a cheap cash in. Fortunately I'm probably getting the regular edition.
