Cry  I'm going on a tofu diet!! . . . . in the game, not the real world that is. Wink

Just remember when you are done playing co-op with your kids to sell off all their abilities as general experience so your character can claim it when their henchmen sign out.

If you buy the knothole island DLC, you can go there and buy get-skinny potions (or get-fat potions, if you like being fat).  Otherwise, eat tofu and celery until you get skinny again.  Isn't it fun?

Actually Circuit City closing = Fable 2 topic being more interesting than the closing itself. Wink

I admit I noticed I am guilty of quite a bit of threadjacking lately. Sorry. Embarassed


 Anyway, back to Fable strategy : Laugh

Smokin or Tequila, I have only eaten 1 pie, about 3 or 4 meats, 2 or 3 alcoholic beverages and my character is getting fat!?!?!  What the . . . Are you  not supposed to eat?  I read somewhere to eat Tofu, but 1 pie is overdoing it ?!  Is there any way to thin him out? 


Tip: You may have noticed already that one benefit of co-op is receiving all of your henchman's experience, and receieving it for your own character.  Yeah . . .  it's cheating, but I leveled up quick.

Circuit City closing = Fable II co-op acheivement whoring strategy

Do I have it right?

There are a few achievements that require the co-op, though, so you'll have to do it at some point.  You just shouldn't expect to want to go back to it afterward.

Oh, once you get good in the game, finish the shooting gallery test and get the hero doll.  It's one of the hardest achiements to get bacause there are 6 and you can only get 1 type in your game, so we've got to trade them around.  Problem is, it's darn hard to win the damn prize.

Not surprised they aren't selling the TV's though... the employees already have dibs on them since they know they won't be getting their last couple of paychecks..

I could probably collect more than what I make there

Our local CC didn't have anything good going on. The selection was still OK when I checked in, but their prices were pretty high for being in liquidation. The hell with them.

And for anyone who's looking, our CC is looking to hire someone for a two-week posistion!

If I was unemployed, I'd take a 2 week job.  Better than not working at all, even knowing that it's only 2 weeks. 

I haven't stopped in to any of the stores and probably won't.  Guess online sources will be happy to see CC close almost as much as BB.
