Black was listening to Cher while typing:
Confirmed by who, and where?

Big Blue Box, the community manager Sam said something about it somewhere (I don't feel like looking for the article again on the mess that is GameFAQs ). However, since that post, people are still looking, but no one has managed to find anything yet.

I read somewhere (can't remember where, and this probably invalidates it) that a dev said in an interview that there were no dragons in the game.

In a game like this, something secret like that could take months to find.

Though, couldn't someone just hex edit (Or whatever you crazy goddamn kids are calling that shit) into the game some more, and look for something out of the ordinary?

Wasn't asking in relation to the dragon.

After speaking with Black and venting my bad days at work, I wish to apologize to the hapless newbs who are ignorant of Gamefaqs and hope they were not too offended.

PM said it shortly before the game was released, but no one believed him because as soon as the game was in modder's hands, they went through and looked at all of the game's files by copying the game to an X-Box hard drive, then using a computer to search through the files. Dragon textures, animations, some quest info, and a complete area for the dragon was found in the game's files, however, bits and pieces are missing and you can't access the area actually in game.

Then, people went a step further by editing the game's files and making the Dragon's Cliff area (yes, it is fully textured and is in game, but there is NO WAY TO GET THERE unless you hack the game, and when you do that, there is a possibility of screwing the game up and losing your saves) and finding the dragon for themselves. What was found is that the dragon isn't textured correctly, has no skeleton, and if you try and cause the game to animate it, the game locks up. The dragon does not exist at this time it is currently believed that the dragon will go in with Fable 1.5.


Anyways, some interesting bits. The statue in Lookout Point opens up two secrets. One secret is an augmentation in the nearby forest (when it is pointing in that direction, inspect the statue to see where it is pointing) and the other secret is that it opens up the Tavern Cellar when it points at South Bowerstone.

Finally, there is a glitch that people have found. What it requires is a spade and a spot on the ground where you can dig. Every time you dig, the game moves your character backwards a little bit, meaning you can move through doors/walls/rocks/over mountains with this little trick. Apparently, once you go so far, the game sends you into some weird area in the middle of no where (you'll know you are there when you look at the world map and your little dot is in the upper border of the map).

People have been, and nothing seems out of the ordinary, also, there seems to be a limit on how far you can hack into the game's files before you hit a dead end. There are quests (trophy vendor and the wandering bard are a couple of examples) that people can't figure out how to activate yet.

You owe me $200 for that therapy session, btw. You may pay in American Bills or with pictures of Led.

Shit. Makes me wish I still had the game in my hands.

What's Fable 1.5, though?

Supposedly its an expansion for the original Fable game. Not much info out on it, other than it can't be downloaded via X-Box Live (Fable is only Live Aware, it can't get online and download something) and that BBB is working on it.

Ya know what, to further rectify my tirade, I'll even join back in the Fable discussions.

I was reading some old Fable 'leaks' and someone previewed something about Co-Op in Fable as in someone can save their Hero on a card and then play side by side as a sidekick or some crap.

Was that complete bullshit? I can't seem to find any kind of followup on that anywhere.

Sounds like a marketing ploy for more cash.
