    Fable 3 installation via DVD


    Hey there,

    i got a gift from a friend and its the game Fable 3 - i really would like to play this but i can't get it to run. The problem is, after the installation finished and i start the game it would like to connect to game for windows live - after a short while it
    simply tells me that a connection is not possible. After 6 hours of reading several posts and stuff i'm very mad *lol* i can't find any good solution and i'm now a bit ***, as i think if a game is not working anymore properly, it shouldn't be sold at all...
    yea it was a gift but still that person paid money for something which does not work =(

    and i really would like to play this game. Therefore my question.... any ideas? solutions?

    Just in case:

    im running win 10 but tried already different compabilities

    my PC is an Intel core i5 4460 3.20 GHz 16GB Ram and a AMD R7 370

    i installed the games fr windows marketplace and ran it before i installed

    to play that game offline - which i would really like to do - was not possible as i never got any possibility to register an offline profile neither i don't know how i can find that manually :/

    anyhow hope someone has a solution!

    thx reci

    :)

    downloading previously boughten game

    ok so my dvd/cd drive is having issues and i'm not sure what's wrong. I'm trying to install Fable: The Lost Chapters and it reads the first disc and starts up the installation but it won't read the second disc. I had similar problems with Warcraft III
    so i just downloaded it off of the Battle.Net since i had all ready purchased it......i was wondering if i could do the same with Fable on the Games for Windows Marketplace......can I?

    why download on disc content to xbox one?

    Yes the load time on anything bigger then a dvd requires installation this has been since the ps3 and affects all consoles since

    Just like theory said

    Xbox 360 games varied in size and rarely required installation but then you are only talking about 9gigs vs 25-50 gigs on blurry which xbox one and ps 3 and ps4 uses

    Fable 2 goty disk look here amd get your answer

    Ok I will make this clear

    I have installed the game and only saw free dlc downloads I tried out couple years back. But not the premium dlcs

    You can't install fable 2 offline or no connection.

    The digital fable 2 download only works when using the dvd license of the game.

    The dlcs are free and premium. The fable 2 goty has the premium content preloaded on the dvd game. The digital game doesn't have preloaded premium dlcs.

    I have already explain before please don't have me explain again. You should try out fable 2 goty for the xbox one. You even should know that all xbox 360 games dvd's don't install to the xbox 0ne. You get only get the digital copy.

    Fable 2 & 3 on Steam Deck

    Fable 2 was never released on PC and Fable 3 has long since had its PC version discontinued

    You can use the cloud via GamePass Ultimate is it. The DLC is indeed a seperate purchase

    Unable To Purchase online

    see if you can goto the x-box dashboard - (if you paid for it via live) then GAMES section click SEARCH then type FABLE - Fable 3 should pop-up - it should then have a fable e- FULL marked either "already downloaded" or "download now" or "free" click it
    then "download again"

    xbox 360 slim hard drive connector type?

    [quote user="BRIOCHEWARIOS"]

    Really? For a bricked xbox? So this means opening the DVD drive to install a game is against the TOU also? I guess i'm stuck playing Max Payne forever then.

    [/quote]

    Opening the DVD tray via the Eject Button or Dashboard option doesn't constitute opening the console as you're not removing the case.

    Still though, best to be safe. Enjoy Max Payne 3.

    Fable 2

    Ok, Fable 3 was given away as part of the games with gold program (actually it was the 1st game given away), this could be why you have fable 3 given to you. Since you have the disc version of fable 2, just insert the disc and start the install, then you
    can play Fable 2 on the xbox one, you do still have to insert the disc to play it though.
