I was thinking about posiibly downloading Fable, Jade Empire, or maybe Black. I kind of wanted something to keep me busy tomorrow. Should I download one? If so, what do you recommend?

If you have the 120 GB HDD than go ahead. But if you got the 20 Gb than i would just buy the disk because i ended up having to delete my XOs (Fable, NG:B) because they just took up way to much room. Which sucks because the other day i wanted to play NG:B but i would have had to wait 6 hours for the friggen thing to re download.

Anyways i suggest Fable.

Do your best to get the original discs. You'll want as much space as you can get when the NXE comes out.

I also kind of wanted to get Fable in preparation for Fable II. How much can you get it used?

I believe it is cheaper just to buy them used from either eBay or even GameStop. I would recommend doing that instead of downloading it from Xbox Live. Anyway, all three games you listed are quality games. I recommend Black more over all of them though. It's just good fun.

Psychnauts and Indigo Prophecy are 2 of the most underrated games of last gen. if I didn't already have them, I'd get both of them from Xbox Originals.

No. Buy them used from Gamestop or somthing. It's cheaper and in the case of Fable, you can get the special edition cheaper than you can the normal version on Live.

Perhaps, but when you consider you could pick up all 3 for the same price, it's not such a great deal.

GAME are doing 3 games for £10 across their preowned xbox games, whereas 1200MS points costs over £10
