  1. Fable III - Windows 10 - Cannot connect to the LIVE Service?


    This won't surprise anyone but I'm having the same problem. Running Windows 10 x64, I already had Games for Windows Marketplace installed prior to installing Fable III. After installing Fable III I downloaded all my DLC content for Fable III then tried to
    run the game. But lo and behold, I get this stupid date activation which results in "Game for Windows - LIVE cannot connect to the LIVE Service. Please make sure your computer is connected to the internet." every single time! Searched the internet for solutions,
    this issue is YEARS old and still Microsoft have done nothing to fix it! I've tried various supposed "fixes" but nothing works! Hit the "Enter" key = nothing; disable the Windows Firewall = nothing; if using a Wi-Fi connection switch to an Ethernet connection
    = nothing!

    Why hasn't Microsoft fixed this issue yet, even after so many years of so many people reporting it? Why hasn't anyone from Microsoft replied to this topic? This very clearly shows just what Microsoft thinks of PC gamers, what do we have to do to get this
    giant company with billions in their bank to take notice and fix their broken pruducts?

  2. Running an Internet search using the phrase "fable 3 games for windows live must verify the release date" gives LOTS of results! You can find results on support.microsoft.com from 2011 and LOTS of results on answers.microsoft.com dating from 2011 up to 2016!
    Microsoft definately knows about this issue, and have known about it since 2011 but it seems they have refused to provide any sort of genuine fix or resolution! I've paid for the game, I've paid for all the DLC, so now I want to play the game I've paid for!

  3. Still got this problem with Fable III when trying to run the game; "Game for Windows - LIVE cannot connect to the LIVE Service. Please make sure your computer is connected to the internet.". Still wanting a fix from Microsoft for their sub-standard software!

    Still getting this problem with Fable III when trying to run the game; "Game for Windows - LIVE cannot connect to the LIVE Service. Please make sure your computer is connected to the internet.". Starting to think these so-called "Support" forums are not
    even close to being anything like "Support", especially when there's ZERO presence from anyone at Microsoft! Wondering what it's going to take to get this massive company to actually take notice of this, let alone do something to actually fix this problem!

  5. Unsurprisingly, this "Game for Windows - LIVE cannot connect to the LIVE Service. Please make sure your computer is connected to the internet." problem still exists! Microsoft have done nothing about this even though they were informed of this problem over
    5 years ago! Clearly they don't care because they've got our money from the sales of the game so why bother with anything that even remotely looks like actual customer care!

    Fable III - Windows 10 - Cannot connect to the LIVE Service?

    Hi,

    The only work around i found to play that game on Windows 10 , its to make a virtual machine with Windows 7 or vista, install Fable 3 on it and you will be able to play it.

    If you cant make a virtual machine, i suggest you to check on internet the how to.

    Regards
