I was preordering anyways.
I was just waiting for an official announcement
on the Collector's Edition before I did.
This and the Survival Edition of Fallout 3.
I'm set.
I believe you have to pre-order the limited edition..which is always £10+ extra. If you dont you then have no choice but to pay for the dlc if you want to experience a game to its full extent...is it not enough that microsoft charge us an extra £40 a year for live in order to give us the "option" to play 100% of the game we've just bought?
Whats the difference between this and what EA were planning with battlefied?
I don't think it's a big deal either. Most people interested in the game are going to pre-order it anyways, so this is basically just a freebie in my mind.
I'm all for added extra's in limited additions but they should be just that..extra's, not something originally planned and developed with the game as a whole in mind..thats why its no different that what EA were wanting to do with Battlefield untill everybody started complaining. Extra's shouldnt come at the experience of the game..it should be things additional to the game contents..such as models, t shirts ect.
Going to be in ALL versions, not just the Limited edition like was originally reported.. preordering will just get you a stand alone version of them earlier. Same with buying on market place.
Hows it a freebie when the only way you can play it is by paying extra for the limited edition or the game, or paying extra for dlc? What it is is basically them taking out existing game code that was originally going to be in the standard game and charging you extra for it.

The pre-order/800ms point fee is only for advanced access to the games to accumulate money and spend it on things before the game is released. You won't miss out on the mini-games if you just buy Fable 2 when it's released.
EDIT: In other words, they are NOT holding back on something that's in the game to just nickel and dime us. You will be able to play the mini-games when you buy Fable 2.
These are XBLA games, not DLC for the actual game..
I'm not sure what the complaining is about. The way I understand it is you can pre-order Fable 2 and get the minigames in advance for free, you can choose not to pre-order Fable 2 and pay for the minigames to get them in advance, OR you can just buy the game when it comes out and play the mini-games then.

These games will cost points to download in advance but will be included for free in Fable II.
EDIT: Also as per the MGS/Lionhead press release:
“Keystone,” “Spinnerbox” and “Fortune’s Tower” will also be embedded as part of the full retail copy of “Fable II” (limited collector’s and standard editions).

Someone totally needs to bust out a "Jump to Conclusions" mat.
If I'm not mistaken, weren't these games were developed outside of LH?
I've had the game pre-ordered for a while now, so hopefully I'll be getting these.
I'm torn two ways about the idea of being able to buy everything the moment I set foot in Albion.. but I'll see how goes. Maybe I'll appreciate the extra gold in my pocket.
I hope we'll see some oldies making a comeback. Pub golf ftw
Slowly building a fortune in fable was a lot of fun, if you just start out the game with a shitload of cash it will detract from the whole point of the game.
So they expect you to pay real life money to be able to ruin the balance of the game when it's released......

It's stupid restrictions like that in a vain attempt to balance the game that ruined Oblivion and destroyed any sense of freedom.
Personally, I'd rather start Fable 2 in the gutter, and have to work my way out, but even if I get these games, I can still do that, I don't HAVE to transfer over my funds. But I'm sure by my second or third play through, I might want to just rush through the whole having to work to feed my family stage, and just start the game as a billionaire.
The point of getting the games early is so that you can build up money for the actual game ahead of time. The money you earn in the XBLA games will transfer to Fable 2.
I guess its fun for people that like using cheats though..
