It's that family Molyneux plans to use to make you care about Fable 2 more deeply than you may have ever cared for anything in a game before.

Aside from the freezing and co-op issues already known about, it seems there is a new flaw in Fable 2. The bug occurs at the start of the "Monk's Quest". If the player starts talking to the abbot who gives the quest, and then leaves the area before finishing the conversation, they will be unable to continue the quest and will thus be prevented from completing the game's main storyline.

According to the post, 2.6 million copies of Fable II have been sold so far. Those millions of gamers have unlocked over 66 million achievements so far. The easiest, unlocked 2.8 million times, was "The Whippersnapper," an achievement unlocked by collecting five gold pieces during the childhood phase of Fable II. That is more than the number of copies sold, which can be attributed to multiple gamertags per console and games being traded.
