You can simply purchase it using a fake US address + credit card if you're not from the US. German here. Worked flawlessly.

Did it go down from 50?

Seems so. More likely it's a temporary sale, though.

EDIT: theemu appears to be correct, though I swear when I bought it last year it only came with F3 content.

No. This is the game only where the 50$ one was the the first fable, fable 3 + dlc. That one sold out though.

Thanks for that information. So far I've only leeched free apps from Underground from them so I wasn't sure :D

Yeah, so do I. Well, I guess I'll have to make do without Fable. Trying to work on my semi-obsessive collecting behaviour anyway although Fable III would have been a nice one to have. And if I really want to play it I can still leech an XBox copy from one of my buddies :D

Amazon processes their own payments and they have, you guessed it, Amazon Payments system, so that's why you won't see PayPal as an option as they are basically in competition with them (no sense in paying someone else a fee).

Why can't we all get along ? :(

But come to think of it: A few years ago I got 2x 10€ Amazon gift cards which I gave to my sisters because I didn't use Amazon at that point. Would that be an option for next time or do those only work for physical good ?

Last time I checked they will work for digital goods, but only those sold on Amazon. Unless something has changed then you won't be able to use Amazon credit to buy from third-party sites, like Humble Bundle for example (who offer Amazon Payments as a payment method).

Doesn't appear to be a new deal. Looks like it has been this price since August 2016. http://camelcamelcamel.com/Fable-III-Online-Game-Code/product/B00AR03O8I
I don't see a way to get the Fable III DLC.
They also have Fable: The Lost Chapters. https://www.amazon.com/Fable-Lost-Chapters-Online-Game/dp/B00AR05D5A/ Realized this is still available on Steam.

Tempting, but I'm frustrated with these publishers pulling games from Steam. I wouldn't buy it at this price yet if it was on Steam, so I'm not buying it now just because they pulled it. They can re-release it on Steam if they want my money.

That's what I think. Re-release it on Steam and put a good discount on it, then maybe we can talk :)

Amazon is just selling remainder stock of keys that they have prior to the game being pulled. This is not the publisher forcing you to pay full retail but rather the vendor trying to liquidate. The publisher doesn't want your money, Amazon does.

I get that it's not the publisher directly, but the lack of supply is what is making this $20 offering particularly interesting to so many people.

This one was pulled with a number of other games back in 2013 because of Microsoft closing down GWFL. You still have to work around it and why people complain about Fable 3 not working on Windows 10.

GFWL is still working, people rumoured it died but you can still login and play multiplayer games fine with it.

8 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I can personally confirm that all my GFWL games stopped working once primary support for the service was dropped. You can notice a rather firm pattern to that effect on Steam reviews as well, with Steam users regularly clarifying that many old GFWL games no longer work [without workarounds] or only started working again once they were relaunched with the Steam multiplayer interface substituted for GFWL. Updates to the GFWL service and to individual games have corrected the issues for seemingly nearly all the GFWL games out there, but I believe a few still don't work, even with the newest version of the service.

See Also: http://www.howtogeek.com/245780/how-to-make-games-for-windows-live-games-playable-on-windows-10/

So if you're saying it was just a rumor for Fable 3, based on the actuality of it being an issue for other games, I wouldn't know about that. But it certainly was a notable problem for a while for quite a few games. The main issue seemed to be that many games had internalized installers, and didn't look for updates to the service. Meanwhile, updates to Windows removed support for older versions of GFWL, creating an incompatibility (especially when using Windows 10). As t0b noted below, manually updating GFWL typically fixes issues, but it doesn't always work- sometimes user patches or workarounds, or hoping a relaunch of the game [eg, with Steam support] are necessary considerations. And in some cases, there's just no way to get a GFWL game to work [for multiplayer], especially if they don't allow for VLAN workarounds.

I didnt meant for fable, but all GFWL games. Must be a windows 10 issue for some users, which the article you linked explains how to update on the Update Your GFWL Client Software section, and you yourself said it fixes for most users.

I use Windows7 and I played section 8 prejudice with friends who have windows 10 just fine recently (using invites, I think the matchmaking was busted but I cant really remember), and before red faction guerrilla got converted I managed to play MP too. I can login and use my online profile on bulletstorm, so GFWL is still functioning, contrary to rumors that it closed down.

I understand why this particular game was pulled, but they should have patched it to work without GFWL if that's what was needed. Just letting the game be pulled permanently and not fixed is just lazy and poor service.

But I wasn't really sure if it was just temporary or permanent... Your post made me buy it I guess, so thanks !

It's a good deal if you really want to have the game in your Steam library. Since the game was pulled from Steam in 2013 it's hard to get now.

Beats me... From what I've heard too, this game was a step down from Fable 2, and even that wasn't a great game imo.

But thats not what he meant. You can wait for a sale on GOG if you just want to play the game and don't care about having it in your Steam collection.

i bought it on cd a while back and still have it. I actually enjoyed the game and the gameplay. The story was unique and fucked up in its own way. However i'm still going to grab this as soon as the gift card from swagbucks goes through.
