Yeah. I'll probably get this game on release day. I think it looks to be a lot more fun than GTA IV.

I don't understand why people feel the need to pay 800 MS points for a mediocre arcade game, just so they can be rich before even playing Fable 2. I mean, surely part of the fun is starting off as a poor urchin with nothing, and slowly becoming wealthy, rather than being able to buy whatever you want upon starting the game.

This arcade game is a blatant marketing ploy to get more money for the developers and I really can't see why everyone is buying into it. I'm really hyped for Fable 2, but I certainly won't be buying this arcade game.

People have it because they like the games?

I know that's a crazy thought and all that some people would buy a game because they plan on enjoying it but I could see it happening in this case.

Well, 90% of the time when I see a thread about the Fable 2 Pub Games, everybody is talking about how they're playing the arcade game to win themselves money for Fable 2. There's rarely any mention of the actual quality of the pub games themselves, and if there is, the views are generally negative.
I mean, your telling me, that if it wasn't for the money carried over to Fable 2, people would still take an interest in this game? Don't kid yourself - I'm sure there are far better arcade games out there that you could get for the same amount of MS points.

So no need to such a sarcastic idiot next time. I know why people normally buy games, but in the case of this game, I believe people are buying it for a different reason.

The Mile High Club is mine. It takes real skill to get.

I know that, but SOME people are paying 800 MS points.

Yep, but to be honest, I'm not even sure if I'd play this arcade game if I did get it for free. As I said, it seems that it would take away some of the fun to be had in Fable 2 to me.

I like getting Achievements... So long as I'm having fun getting them.
