Seems Like Fable Anniversary's Coming to PC

Being serious about the PC is releasing a 6 month old remake of a 10 year old game? Whatever you say Klepek. Fable 1 is better than Fable 2 though.

If this somehow leads to a Fable 2 on PC I'm happy.

Why the hell would I want the anniversary version..isn't that just Fable 1? I want Fable 2 damn it!

Microsoft have been putting a whole lot of their older library on Steam recently - Age of Mythology, Rise of Nations and next week we'll be getting Close Combat. So, yeah, looks like someone there has started to realize there's an interest in their back catalog on PC.

Personally I'm hoping for Steam multiplayer capable versions of Hellbender, Starlancer and Freelancer.

This is pretty cool, I am glad Microsoft is putting games out on Steam and also supporting the PC (yes not all games, but games like Fable, Age of Empire 2 HD, Rise Of Nations etc, this is a step in the right direction from my point of view). Huzzah!

@jeanluc: Kind of where I'm at. It's the only version I've loved.

Considering how fucked Fable Anniversary was on the Xbox 360, my expectations are so low that I will be happy if it just runs in a stable manner.

If this leads to a PC port of Fable 2 then I am excited.

Clearly those messages were fake. Not one incorrect spelling on all those messages? Someone was bound to spell anniversary wrong.

Yeah, "again".

SPOICE MUREENS

Wait, wrong British thing...

They could have been Steam themselves if they gave half a shit. Now that their dream of ruling all living room media through the Xbox is effectively dead they might return to the PC in a stronger way.

Pretty well done teaser. Not sure how the original Fable holds up but I remember enjoying it back when it was released. I've heard mixed things about the anniversary edition but at least being on steam means it'll be on sale at some stage in the future. Might pick it up then.

Gotta milk that franchise bone dry, till the very last drop. Good job Microsoft.

This was a pretty awesome way to announce a release/port for PC. Maybe that's just me thinking that though. It's also nice to see that Microsoft is obviously pushing it through steam. Hopefully that means we can see more PC stuff from them in the future on the platform that matters for PC.

Good stuff, I will probably play this.

What the hell, I thought Microsoft and Steam had beef at the moment.

Also I find it slightly hard to believe that this has come about from heavy demand???

I don't care about Fables 1 or 3. Just port Fable 2 to PC.

How curious.

So did everyone else have issues with Fable 3 on the PC? I could never get it to run well on two different machines. Hopefully this will be better optimized.

Finally without the framerate issues.

Meh, Fable was a pretty mediocre game back when it was new.

Good news because the 360 version didn't look like it ran very well.

CHICKEN CHAYSA

Fable is always pretty okay, but Microsoft serious about PC? I HIGHLY doubt that's going to happen. I wouldn't mind them trying to prove me wrong, I just don't see it happening.

Whenever I see someone talking about how Microsoft should do more for PC gaming I cringe. Microsoft doing more for PC gaming is what got us GFWL.

I found this trailer quite humorous

That was a clever teaser I guess.

B-but what about Fable 2?

I'm genuinely surprised that this is going to be a Steam release. I feel like Don Matrick wouldn't have gone for that or forced to be a Windows Store game.

sorry about ur blackhawks, Klepek. it was a helluva series.

This is cool. Fable is cool.

Isn't Anniversary a huge bummer? Love the first game but don't remember exactly what scared me off from getting the anniversary game...besides the fact that I haven't played my 360 in 2 years.

Is that Peter Molyneux writing all those messages, asking to get Fable Anniversary to PC?

How about fable 2 first...

Microsoft serious about the PC?
