Fable III PC and Xbox Interplay?

Will I be able to play and trade with my PC buddies? I did a thorough (one counts as thorough, right?) google search for this but nothing of value seems to appear within the first five or six results..

No you won't. This is obvious and it has been stated a lot of times.

Really? It seems like it would be relatively easy to implement...

No, it wouldn't be easy.

Why not? Presumably they mostly use the same code, it's just a matter of connecting the two. Other games have done it in the past.

Time consuming, complex in technology and a lot of work with the Xbox Live and .net technologies, whereas it would be time consuming, and a matter of "connecting" Such two entities isn't that simple as it sounds.

Why not? The information that's traded is the same, only the place it's traded is different. Xbox and Windows OSs were both created and are owned by Microsoft, as is Lionhead. I do not doubt that they would have the necessary resources to make it a reality.

I meant that Lionhead was owned by Microsoft. T'was a grammatical oversight.

But being that this PC version isn't a port, and is being designed concurrently with the Xbox version, presumably they would speak the same language?

It's been confirmed there won't be.

If someone asks for source their scrotum will appear empty tomorrow.

I would of thought that Games For Windows Live, would have the capability.. Oh well I guess Darkoni was right. We can only hope to see a patch arrive later.

Re: Fable III PC and Xbox Interplay?

this thread is so stupid. If you 2 guys want to talk to yourself then call each other. 2 people arguing about interplay and getting nowhere in progression. Gosh!!!!

I guess my unprepared mind just thought it would be simpler than that.

Nothing is ever as simple as I think it is.
