Xbox 360 and Fable

Echo Memree · May 5, 2015

I just redownloaded the original Fable game on my Xbox 360 because the first time I downloaded it, I got a screen that said: redownload the game and if it has the same problem to contact Xbox Support. Well I had the same problem to where the game will not
start. The data looks like it hasn't been corrupted but I am still having problems. What can I do so that I can play the game?

Note: this is not the "new" Fable game i.e. Fable Legends, rather it's Fable Anniversary which is an HD remaster of the (extended version of the) original Fable and is being released on the 360.

Will probably get this to play on my brother's 360 as I really enjoyed II and III

Lets speculate about possible releases.

Xbox Consoles News: Microsoft registers "Fable Legends" - could this be the first Fable for Xbox One? - Xbox 360 - The Official Magazine

We appear to be mere hours away from the announcement of Fable: Legends at Microsoft's Gamescom media briefing tomorrow, as suggested by the registration of FableLegends.com and FableLegends.net in March - the listings in question were most recently updated on Friday, 16th August. Could this be Lionhead's long-rumoured, Unreal Engine-powered Fable MMO, a project that's said to be "more ambitious than ever before"? And is it, as Legends implies, a Heroes-style spin-off from the main series?

We'll have more to say on the subject later this week, in all probability. In the meantime, it may repay you to consider this feature on unannounced Xbox One exclusives, of which there seem to be a fair few. Thanks, VG247.Click to expand...

Best suggestion is:

Delete the game, download it again, do not start it.

Clean your Cache. How to clear the Cache. Press the Guide button on the controller, Settings, System Settings, Storage. Highlight but don’t select a storage device, and then press Y for Device Options, Clear System Cache, Yes

Start the game again.

Does your Xbox 360 have an official Xbox hard drive installed. If not, then that will be why the game will not work. Xbox originals need the hard drive to play. I am assuming the version of Fable is the original xbox version and not the re-released anniversary
edition for the Xbox 360.

Echo Memree · May 6, 2015

It is the original, not the re-released. And I have an official 250 GB hard drive for my 360.

I am currently attempting Nightly Suicide's idea, will notify you guys if it works. Until then, please reply with any ideas you guys have in case clearing the cache does not work.

Echo Memree · May 6, 2015

Or did you mean a hard drive that was meant for the original Xbox?

If that is the case then no, I do not have that. My hard drive is a 360 hard drive.

StuartATrueRed · May 6, 2015

Yeah, I meant an official xbox 360 hard drive. Just wanted to check did you buy the hard drive seperately or was it already installed when you bought the console?

Echo Memree · May 6, 2015

Sorry Nightly Suicide,

I tried your idea and it didn't work out. Thank you for the advice though, if you have anymore ideas please send them my way.

Smwutches · May 6, 2015

Did you buy the hard drive brand new or was it purchased used/from a third party like ebay?

Echo Memree · May 6, 2015

I got it via third party on Amazon. But it had not been opened.

StuartATrueRed · May 7, 2015

What did the packaging look like, did it look official or did it arrive in a plain box/packaging?

Echo Memree · May 11, 2015

The packaging was like if I had bought a store-bought version

Echo Memree · Nov 1, 2018

If anyone has any other ideas, I have tried everything but buying a brand new hard drive since the last post? If not thank you I guess I'll have to get a new hard drive.

Xbox 360 SmartGlass is not detecting the Xbox 360 anymore. Fable Anniversary cannot be completed due to this. What's the point of releasing this classic title for free if it's not backward compatible? If the Xbox 360 SmartGlass will not continue working
as it once did, Microsoft should at least add Xbox 360 functionality to Xbox One SmartGlass. Will be staying away from Fable until this is resolved.

Fable 3 was a pretty fun game, and so was Fable 2. But Fable is sadly a dead series in my opinion. It died along with the xbox 360 and it might be revived at some point but probably not anytime soon.
