Fable 2 Limited Edition without premium box, fate cards and hobbe figure

The premium box, five printed fate cards, and Hobbe figure will not be available as part of the Limited Collector's Edition. Fable II dev team and Microsoft apologize for any inconvenience.
Updates:
Lionhead has decided to make Fate Cards as a downloadable PDF to let users print the cards themselves. Plus they have also confirmed the new LCE version will have the original LCE artwork.

1.1 - lol... sorry for the inconvenience....
There is nothing inconvenient about it. It's just fans are dissappointed and perhaps pissed, like the guy/gal above.

At least they reduced the price and gave everyone a free album. I'm not a fan and don't intend to buy this game, but get free music. Win for me, but not so good for fans.... I feel your pain, as C&C Tiberium was just cancelled! @!$#@!$#@$#@$32

Yeap, me too. Even free album with music and reduced price don't make me happy :(
I'm still going to buy LE to support Lionhead and Moulineux with their great games.

My initial reaction was to be pissed too. But they reduced the price $10 and are still going to include bonus content which you may or may not be able to download normally (at least at first). Didn't Soul Calibur IV do something like that? I'm sure they realized that this would make a lot of people upset and wouldn't do it unless they had to.

I'm more concerned that this might start fueling a negative opinion trend towards Lionhead or the game that I don't think they deserve. I'm confident that the game is going to be great.

They're really cutting things out of Fable 2 aren't they. Online play won't be available from the start and now this? :(

It's important in Limited Collector's Edition. It makes it "Collectors".
But we all are waiting for the game of course.

The only reason I ever consider special variants is because of the snazzy packaging. That's too bad.

Personally, as one of those effected, I am a bit miffed.

It is far too close to the release of the game, surely they would have been privy to this info well in advance?

there really is no need to buy the LE as it doesn't even have a different box than the STD edition.
