I was wondering what do you guys think? Do you think you should hae to pay an extra $5-10 just to play a minigame that should be included in the game?
I would think it's nonsense if they released them and they were say 800MS points each. That would almost be as bad as having to buy better guns in Battlefield:BC, so what do you guys think?

We still don't know for sure how they will be incorporated into Fable 2. There is meant to be someway of transfering cash between the xbla game and fable, but I don't know if this game will only be availalble to those that purchase it.

Bar games were in fable 1, and this sounds like it will be similar, though the xbla games are going to be released ahead of fable 2.

The fact that there are 3 I can't see them being priced at 800MS, as someone wanting to buy everything Fable is going to have to shell out 2400MS which seems a lot for something that should be in the game anyway.

No way. If it will earn you gold in game, they will think it's justified to charge money for it. I'm hoping it's 9.99$ for a full pack and not selling each seperate.

He's the kind of guy who would milk things, so I say it will have a price.

Looks like nobody knows. We'll just have to wait & see. It's rare to get free XBL games. Every now & then they'll release one such as Carcasonne, or give a discount. I keep an eye out for those.

I would be suprised if we had to pay anything higher than $5.00 for a pack of sub-par minigames that will be in the final product anyways.

My guess, you will get *a certain mini game free* for pre-ordering fable2. The rest you will have to pay(probably cheap, and hopefully good)

No. They're supposed to be standalone XBLA games that have the added bonus of allowing you to transfer winnings across to Fable 2.

It's already been announced that all of them will be included for free in Fable 2. You'll just be paying extra real money to start the game with extra fake money.

They SHOULD give one of them for free if you pre-order, and then sell the other t20 for 300 MS points a pop.
