Gamepass.

If you own the game, you can emulate it via Xenia. It's an Xbox360 emulation program.

fable 2 was never on pc, you can still buy fable 3 keys but there will be extra steps needed, fiddling with files to get the dlc and/or have online capabilities

as mentioned theres also the xbox cloud streaming of the games

Fully Playable? Yes*

*I used a couple of fan made patches to help with the graphics and Hero-Texture issues. I finished the whole game (doing some quests post ending now to wrap things up), and performance wise, the game has been fine. These patches are text/Notepadd++ files that are available on the Xenia discord. They have a section dedicated to Fable 2.

It crashes occasionally. I'm not sure if this is the emulator, or the game. I sometimes get a crash less than ten minutes into playing, and things will run smoothly for hours afterward. Not sure what causes them.

The game saves at fairly regular intervals. Remember to save often yourself, especially if you did a bunch of stuff.

I don't have permission to invite, but I did a google search for Xenia Discord. I followed the link and joined up.

I can also send you the patch file I have if you can't find it in the channel. Discord handle is the same name as here.

I really hope they bring both to steam. I loved them both so much growing up but no longer have an Xbox

360 to PC recompilations are now possible.

If there are Fable 2 fans with coding knowledge, using the current open source tools that released a couple of days ago could be possible.

A native PC port like that would run much better than the current method of playing on PC.

That's the best hope for us then. Sonic unleashed recomplied runs and looks like a dream. So does jak I & II.

Stuff like this is why it's a good idea to dabble in consoles as well. No need to pay full price for stuff. Wait for sale or look for people who want to offload theirs for cheap.

There are enough titles that either don't make it to PC or that don't have native controller support on PC, that it's worth it, imo.

Having to jump through all the hoops to play some games gets kind of exhausting and I find that doing both PC and console alleviates all that nonsense.

Just an FYI. The entire series can also be played on Game Pass Ultimate via Xbox Cloud Gaming on PC.
