Hear that rumbling sound? It's the PR machine getting into high gear. Xbox Canada brings word that its very promising title Fable is available in stores. Buzz on the street is that the EB Games chain is carrying the game. I'll be hooking up with G-men Gammafodder and Gatmog to give the game a test-drive. I should have a review up here by early next week.

On the Halo 2 front, there's an Xbox Live sweepstakes taking place for a chance to play the game prior to release. You know, if you just can't wait another second. "Winners will be drawn on October 22 and will receive a three-day/two-night trip for the winner and one guest to Bungie Studios in Redmond, Washington to play Halo 2 multiplayer. Package includes round-trip air transportation to Seattle, Washington, hotel accommodations, roundtrip airport transfers, meals and a tour of Bungie Studios."
