Two more talking games for Fable 2
Back during the 2008 GDC, Peter Molyneux showed off a few new features to his Fable 2 game. One of the features he showed the audience was an Xbox Live Arcade game that went hand-in-hand with Fable 2, called Keystone, a pub game that is a combination of craps and roulette. The game is the first XBLA title that will interact with a full Xbox 360 game, having players win gold and then transferring their profit to their Fable 2 save.
Today, Molyneux has revealed on the Major Nelson podcast that there will be two more XBLA games that will work with Fable 2 in the same style Keystone will. The two working titles of the games are Wizard’s Tower and Mage Dice, and they are being developed by Carbonated Games, creators of Uno and Hexic. Molyneux hasn’t revealed much about the two games, but he has said that they will be releasing in the summer, along with Keystone, before Fable 2 releases.
In addition to revealing the two arcade games, Molyneux also added some new details about Fable 2. If you’re rolling in enough dough, you can spend it on not only a home, but also a dungeon or a castle. Players will be titled Mayor if they buy all the houses in their town, King if they buy all in their region, and if they’re really ballin’, Emperor, which means they’ve bought all property in the game.

I’m not gonna pay real life money for a gambling simulator, but considering that they talk to each other, what are the chances that these games will be free downloads, as they sort of give incentive for people to go out and buy Fable 2?
Yeah, I wouldnt buy a game just so I can get Fable 2 gold. I’d rather just get that game and play it.
I want Keystone and Fable 2 to hurry up and get released as soon as possible, but not to fast because all the bugs and stuff.
Also you don’t have to buy keystone it should be free because there would be no point paying for keystone just to earn money for Fable 2
I agree with the dexter guy but I think its worth buying. have you seen the game play.
