This series was effectively my introduction to Capcom, which has since remained one of my absolute favorite devs, constantly putting out games I adore. The style, the combination of Zelda and Mario (or at least that's how I saw it) mixed with the humor gave it a charm that has stuck with me ever since. It's also rather tragic as this was intended to be a trilogy, and we never got the third game. My hope (and it's a pipe dream) is that this could garner enough attention brought back to pc that Capcom could be pushed to give us the finale we never got. I'm not a good writer, but this series means a lot to me; I hope that comes across. I'd love to revisit it, and see others play it for the first time to see why it's so special to someone like me.
omg I forgot all about this game I remember my mom bought this for me cause I wanted an action game but she didnt want it to be |too violent" lmao so she got this for me :P it was good i liked it enough to beat it!

Fable: The Lost Chapters
Fable: The Lost ChaptersFable was expanded and rereleased as Fable: The Lost Chapters for Xbox and Windows PC platforms in September 2005. The game was later ported to Mac OS X by Robosoft Technologies and published by Feral Interactive on 31 March 2008. The Lost Chapters features all the content found in the original Fable, as well as additional new content such as new monsters, weapons, alignment based spells, items, armour, towns, buildings, and expressions, as well as the ability to give children objects. The story receives further augmentation in the form of nine new areas and sixteen additional quests. Characters such as Briar Rose and Scythe, who played only minor roles in the original game, are now given more importance and are included in certain main and side quests. Other character-based augmentations include the voice of the antagonist, Jack of Blades, sounding deeper, harsher and more demonic, and the ability to uncover (and resolve) the murder mystery of Lady Grey's sister. The updated edition of the game also applied fixes for certain glitches, such as the "dig glitch," in which the protagonist would move backward each time he used the shovel, pushing him through solid objects and sometimes trapping him.

Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon
Zelda: The Wand of GamelonZelda: The Wand of Gamelon was the product of a compromise between Nintendo and Philips following their failure to release a CD-ROM based add-on to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was developed in tandem with Link: The Faces of Evil and marks the first game where the eponymous princess Zelda is playable. The Wand of Gamelon differ from most conventional Zelda games as it is a platformer with a side-scrolling view, similar to The Adventure of Link. Stages are accessed from a world map, with more becoming available as Zelda clears an area or defeats a boss. The game have been subject to much criticism and Nintendo does not recognize it as part of the series.
