I need advice here. i currently have a PS3 which I love but would really like to play Fable.....of course Fable will never be on the PS3 so I'm debating whether or not I should buy an Xbox 360. I literally only want it to play this game unless there are other games like this that are only available on the Xbox. Should I buy the basic 4GB model for $199, a refurbished model from Game Stop for $130 or not bother at all. I don't care about Wi-Fi but really just want it for basic solo gaming. Thoughts??? (BTW- I have a Mac so buying a good PC for gaming would be much more expensive).

Fable really isn't worth it imo, I mean it is just a basic WRPG in the lightest sense of the word possible. Very little customization, quest path choices. Just get Dragon Age for your PS3 instead.

ummm well just for fable idk but the 199 dollar is the best thing you can get and the new xbox's and better than the old ones, i wouldnt trust the gamestop refurbished one's they suck one of my friends got one from them and yea just get the newer ones they are way better. u could get fable 2 its a pretty good game and fable 3 is coming out for pc.. but u say u have a mac and dont have money for a gaming pc?? macs are more expensive lol, anyways the 200 dollar xbox is your best bet but i would rather pay the 100 dollars more and get the 300 dollar 120 gigabyte bundled with 2 games imho if i was in your position. because 4 gigabytes isnt enough space for me lol i like to buy stuff and put music on my xbox

Great thank you for the opinions. I'll probably get Dragon Age and if I still want to play Fable invest in the $199 Xbox. My Mac was expensive just don't want to spend money for a second computer that is probably going to be more than $199. Thanks again. :)

Fable 1-2 are like Fable 3, and all on 360

Also you must get Alan Wake, Mass Effect 1-2and Lost Odyssey forsure and even if you remotly like shooters, must try Halo for its unique gameplay

Of course i would also recommend like another 40 games that are must have, like Tales of Vesperia, Last Remnant, Limbo, Kameo, Banjo 3, Pinata 2, Ninja Gaiden 2, Blue Dragon, Gears 1-2 and many more

I was asking more if Fable is worth it just to by a 360 and since it is only for the Xbox (and PC) figured this was the best place to ask!! To everyone else- thanks again for the recos appreciate it.

Buy Xbox360 not only for fable but for all the other XBOX ONLY games i think xbox is clearly better than ps3 in almost every way there are alot of XBOX only games i love

for example:halo reach,fable3,alan wake and etc so its worth it.

the only games i think are good are killzone and GODOFWAR but there are loads more than those 2 that i love and are XBOXONLY

Great choice on the $199 console. I'm about to sell my arcade version to get one myself..it's really sleek and you can't beat the built in wireless, and can always expand the memory later if needed. Let us know how you like it! :)
