Well, its Microsoft and they said that they are gonna release the game for PC to boost Win 7 as a gaming platform.
So...yeah, they better release it.
I highly doubt it - the game was an overwhelming disappointment for the majority of the critics and reviewers, which, undoubtedly, left a noticeable dent on the sales.
I don't see any way for the devs to fix a game with fundamental flaws at the very core of the gameplay, and therefor, I don't see any reason for them to invest into a port that isn't going to sell.
I predict that they're just gonna cut their losses, and instead make an effort into an entirely new direction.
Though, hopefully, not before they relieve Peter Molyneux from his position of lead designer. That prick is just incapable of learning from his own mistakes, and has no business leading anything, let alone a project with actual finantial interests behind it...
I wouldnt be suprised if they cancel it. However there has been gameplay videos on the pc version.dakan45
Keep in mind that roughly a month prior to the release, both the console and the PC version were set to be out on the same day, so I doubt that would make such promises without having the PC version at least partially ready.
As it turned out in the end, I assume they just decided not to put all their eggs in the same basket, and delayed the PC version a bit to see how the game sells on consoles. And since we all know that didn't work out all that well, I bet they just decided to can the project altogether...
Lets wait a bit more. In any case, they gotta change half of the game, in its current state, the game is pretty bad.dakan45
Well, unless they do some monumental facelift of the entire game, the only left going for it is the beautiful art design, and it's just not worth more than 20$ in my book...
Tell me about it, they need to fix the story, Zero punctuation explains why. They need to fix the meele combat, the overpowered magic, add skills, add more interaction options with the npc, kill the bazzilion of loadings, add a minimap or some indication on the map to show you where you are, get rid of the sanctuary and bring back the damn inventory and finally get all the dlcs in the disk because i dont wanna have problem playing coop because i dont have the same dlcs installed. Oh and the weapon upgrade is idiotic. Kill your friend in coop to upgrade your evilness in the weapon.dakan45They NEED to do that stuff to make the game not mediocre. But they wont :(

But they wont :( they cant... Its broken to the core. They would have to recode like 50% of the game. Its abit to expensive for a game that probably wont sell that good even if they remake it that much.

If you're correct, then screw Fable 3. So many great games coming out this year. If it weren't for these threads popping up on Fable 3 I would have completely forgotten about it. Thanks.
According to Major Nelson (some bigwig on xbox apparently but I have never heard of him) we can expect Fable 3 on the PC come 17th May 2011 :-
Fable III for Windows – Launching in the US on May 17, Fable II for Windows takes gamers back to Albion for the next installment of the beloved Fable franchise. Players can take advantage of the same great action found on the console game as well as a full 3-D functionality made possible by NVIDIA technology and a PC-exclusive hardcore mode which offers a higher level of difficulty.Major Nelson

We'll see how long that date holds up... but it's great to see that our buddy Geralt will completely overshadow Fable 3 PC, crippling it and sending it to the gates of hell.Please Log In to post.
