Recently announced today, Fable 2 will have yet another cutback to it's final product. Once again, Peter Molyneux has failed to deliver what he promises.
Earlier today, it was announced by Lionhead Studios that the Fable 2 Collectors Edition (CE) would not include certain items due to "supply chain issues". Therefore, perks such as the miniature Hobbe figure, five fate cards and the limited edition box will not be appearing in the Collectors Edition. Yet, the package will still contain bonuses such as an extra in-game dungeon, an extra weapon, Halo armor, as well as an energy sword. To compensate for the removal of certain content, the overall price of the CE will be dropped $10.
This newest development only adds to Lionhead's troubles. Earlier this week it was announced that the game would not include the coveted online co-op play with it. When a game goes "gold", it means that it is in the process of being produced and shipped to the store selling it. When Fable went gold earlier this month, it apparently wasn't ready - due to Molyneux's completion date for the game. Therefore, a patch will need to be added a couple weeks after the game is released.
This is not the first time Molyneux has had troubles will his completion date for a game.
