I'm thinking about doing that as well. Do you know how much you'll get for the trade at Gamestop?

I agree that the game was awesome...while it lasted. It was just to short I think, and once you beat it there is not a whole lot to do after beating the remaining side quests that open up after the main story is completed.

I would not go as far as saying the game was awesome, but it was definitely a game worth playing. I will not trade it in for two reason, one being of which I never trade in games as I like to keep them considering I do not get near as much back as I bought them for so to me it is just basically giving gamestop money to rent a game, and that being an outrageous amount. Secondly, I have no doubt in my mind that they will be bringing some DLC to this game.

Consider it the other way around - you have paid full price for a game you have now completed and may not spend much more time playing again. You can keep it and not play it, having paid full price, or you can sell/trade it and get back some of your money to put towards another game. By keeping it you have lost all the money you spent on it.

That's pretty much how I feel. I lack only three achievements in Fable 2 and I highly doubt I will be playing it anymore. After your second playthrough, you have pretty much experienced all you can in Albion. :(

This one will definitely be traded in by yours truly as well.

i agree, there isnt much left to do after youve beaten the main quest, which was only about 6 hours not even.

i would trade it in but i feel i might play it later on down the road. also like someone else said, there will most likely be downloadable content available in the near future.

Trading in games is stupid, you get screwed:

-You get a small fraction back of what you paid for it.

-Gamestop sells it for only like 5 or 10 bucks less than new.

-You miss out on future DLC.

-Who knows when you'll want to go back and play it a year or so from now.

-Having an extensive game library is a great thing

I hate gamestop as much as the next guy, but sometimes trading is a decent deal. I traded Fable II after I beat it and got $32.50 + and extra 20% for reserving Gears 2. Total: $39

I consider that a good trade in deal.

Or, you could have sold it on eBay in Like New condition for $50, and used that to pay for the majority of GOW2....

Sold it to a friend at work for $30 yesterday. I already beat the whole game, got 50K reknown points, and bought every building in the game.

Thinking about trading in Far Cry 2 as well. I havnt played the game since i bought it the first week of release. Its pretty bad

6 hours if you only do main quests...

anyone who skips everything else misses the fable magic.

I am about to trade it in. I thought it was fun to play but I have a lot of gripes with the game. It is not one that I want to keep in my collection, and that is saying a lot considering I am a collector.

I won't since I rented it and I'm happy I did. Beat it in 3 days (including the side quests) and got the majority of the achievements. Honestly if you don't play the game anymore, you should just trade it in. Especially now while the game still gets you decent amount of credit.

i thought they give you $35 credit for new releases?

even so thats like you renting a game for $25

you are best to sell it to a friend or even ebay as they pay for shipping. and even then you can jack shipping up to 6 or7 dollars and get away with shipping it off for $2.

I'll be trading it in tomorrow when I pick up gears 2, I'm not a fan of ebay at all honestly. It was a good game, but after I beat it I was pretty bored with it.

I understand your point of view. My point of view lies more closely with the people who've played and held onto it. Keep it in the collection, you might play it again someday, plus, downloadable content.

Why regret it? Couple bucks on a game that you know now is not worth you're try. Instead of buying it for 50 bucks. That's pretty savvy if you ask me.

I returned it the day after I bought it. Got gears1 and blue dragon instead, much better.

Felt like fable 1.5. That was good five years ago, not so good now.

I enjoy playing Fable II. More-so than Fallout 3 and Far Cry2. I guess because the drop in and drop out gameplay. I don't have to re-read everything I'm suppose to do.

I'm thinking about doing that as well. Do you know how much you'll get for the trade at Gamestop?

If you go to Game stop link you can look it up I think it $28
