Fable was my first RPG in my whole life, and it's a franchise that has a special place in my heart. Fable The Lost Chapters is my favorite from all the three games (four if you include the Journey, a game that I haven't played nor I will since I don't have a kinnect). but still, I love Fable II and III all the same.

With Fable (and later Fable III) being one of the games I have spent more hours with, and not having the console, I always hated Lionhead and Microsoft Games Studios for releasing Fable II exclusive on Xbox and not on PC. To this day I'm still waiting for them to release it at least on PC, and GOG would be the perfect site to have it.

I'm not even sure how they'd manage to port a console exclusive game to GOG, but if they do it would be WILD. I only played the game once, on PC, using an emulator. It was good for the most part except for some textures going black and my dog suddenly expands to fill the screen. If this game manages to arrive on GOG, I'd be so happy.

Fable 1 and 2 are both incredibly important, helping to shape the action game umbrella and intentionally going against the grain to redefine the concept of role-playing video games. While the first is on PC in the form of a Steam release, it is unfair to new and old generations alike that Fable 2 and 3 are trapped on consoles that aren't manufactured, anymore. GOG releases would mean much for the preservation of video game history.

Fable 2 for me was one of the first games I really played growing up. It also so happened to be the first RPG I played and it really sucks to see it not ported to pc. One of the best RPG's on 360 for me

Fable 2 was the game I played in my childhood that helped me find peace and calm. Years later I’m about to have my first baby and I’m stressed… and I’m still playing this game to find peace. Idk how else to tell you this game is good.

I first played Fable 2 when I was 12 years old, it is one of the first RPG's I played. I remember coming home from school, stopping by my Dad's house, and deciding to stay the night because he'd just bought this game and wanted to try it with me. We ended up staying awake all night playing this, and by the end of the weekend we'd beaten the main story. Not only that, but the dog you get in the game looked almost exactly like the dog we had at the time (RIP) and it was fun as hell to slay bandits with my best friend.

Fable The Lost Chapters is one of my favourite games, one of the two I regularly replay. I couldn't play Fable 2 ever, as it was always XBox exclusive. It would be awesome to play it on GoG!

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

Freelancer
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

Discworld
DiscworldDiscworld is a game released for PC (subsequently Mac, and Playstation) by Teeny Weeny / Perfect 10 studios in 1995. The game was released both on floppy disk and CD-Rom. The latter featured a commentary team created of many veterans of famous Brit-Coms. This included Monty Python's Eric Idle, Radio 4's (later to be more famous) Rob Brydon, ex- Doctor Who John Pertwee, 70s pop singer Kate Robbins, and Blackadder star Tony Robinson. The game is a riff on the Discworld title 'Guards, Guards', however many elements of the text have been shifted, not least the inclusion of Rincewind as protagonist. The game featured puzzles which were considered far too difficult and obtuse for gamers of the time, but the game itself has had a lasting legacy, now being accepted into such emulators as SCUMMVM.
