Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

OK well I search the internet and forums and there was a similar post to this, but it was never answered and ended up being closed. So here is the problem

I have Fable TLC for Xbox and everytime I start the game it will not let me skip the intro until it reaches the top of the window (during the intro). It is as if my controller doesn't work until it gets back the top pf the window in the intro part. So when it is there I press a button ( i have tried them all) and all it does is reset the intro, like takes me all the way back to the start where the guy is putting his sword in the ground. Then i have to wait until the top of the window again before I can press anything.

I have tried using a new controller, deleting the old saved games and such. Also I want to mention at rare times I do manage to get pass the intro and play the game however I may end up having to go through the intro 50times before I can finally get passed it (that is how I have saved games).

Anyone know what the problem is? Any ideas how to fix it so I do not have to wait and watch the intro 50+ times jsut to play the game?

I dont have access to either. BTW all my other XBOX games work fine. Any other ideas?

Just a guess but thats what it sounds like anyway...
 
Re: Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

ive got the exact same problem,
ive had the original Fable and that just wouldnt read at all that got swapped for another game a couple of years back
im on my third copy of TLC and all i can do is watch the intro over + over did you ever get it resolved what the heck is wrong with my xbox??
every other game ive had has worked fine even 2nd hand ones :wacko:
 
Re: Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

I got the very same error just now. Wierd thing is I just finished the game this first time, started a new game, saved, quit and came back a few hours later.

Think maybe it's a glitch that happens once you have a completed save file on your XBox HD? I don't know, I'm just shooting in the dark here.
 
Re: Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

Have you tried not skipping the intro? Like just letting it play through?
 
Re: Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

Well I have not complete a whole game yet so having that type of save file couln't be the problem. I have delete all my save files and still nothing. Also I have let the intro play all the way through, but it will just start over again when it is done.
 
Re: Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

OMG I will tell you guys this once on xbox you have to wait til the window to get to the start menu and after you play your xbox fable again and haven't played anything else since the last time you played fable you can skip everything because the game is in its memory it can only keep memory of one games start up at a time.
 
Re: Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

what do you mean you have to wait until the window to get to the start menu....do you mean during the intro right when i see the window do i press start or do I wait until the top of the window. Can you please explain.
 
Re: Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

This happened to me alot before I got TLC...my original Fable disc was scratched like crazy and my Xbox is about to break....but anyway, I just kept trying, and eventually it worked...but you might want to let the whole intro go through...

Just leave the credits go then it should auto-save and you spawn at the now-destroyed Guild.

Oh, next time, read the dates. You have resurrected an ancient that existed at the time of the first Archon.
 
Re: Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

If you are playing the free download then you probably have the first version, not Lost Chapters. So, there is no more after the Jack fight in the Guild. I do not know that for sure, but I think so from what I read elsewhere.
 
Re: Fable Keeps restarting and won't let me play

You have to sit though the entire thing in the first one, then you can continue dicking around with the sword of aeons (if you got it..)
