Can't choose gender

[Nurtan]

I played through Fable III as a male character, but when my brother tried to make a new character on his X-Box account, he was automatically made a female.

Can I change this, or does he have to play through as a female?

In order to start a new game someone had to have held the appropriate button to choose a gender. Are you telling us that the prince or princess screen never came up for your brother? Did he by chance join you in couch co-op before attempting to start a game of his own?

 

[Nurtan]

Yes, he did join me in Co-Op before starting his own game. He didn't get the prince or princess screen.

Yes, he did join me in Co-Op before starting his own game. He didn't get the prince or princess screen.

That's the reason then. If you go into co-op before starting a character, you will automatically be made into the opposite gender of your co-op partner. Your brother will have to delete his save game and start it over before he goes into co-op with you.

How do you delete a save game? All I can do is delete his game history in his profile, but he's still female when he plays.

On your dashboard, go to system settings, then to memory, then select the correct storage device, then go to games and to Fable 3. If there is only one save game on your brother's Xbox profile, then just delete the one called "Hero 1". Make sure to delete it from his account and not yours.
