As was promised, Lionhead and Microsoft have setup a method for those Fable II CE purchasers who didn't receive the redemption code to get their promised DLC. Silly game packaging mixups.
To claim your free Fable II DLC code, simply head over to the Xbox.com support page and enter your Windows Live ID here. Once filled out and submitted, Microsoft will email your Fable II DLC redemption code within' five business days. Easy as cake! But don't drag your feet too long, because this offer is only available until December 31st. Oh, and don't try to scam the system ...
[Thanks, to everyone who sent this in]

Does this also provide the pub games through XBLA?
I'm so pissed I bought the stupid limited edition. The only saving grace is that I got it through Amazon and only paid $66, no shipping, and no tax.
Internet meme alert...
Fable II launch --> EPIC FAIL

I paid 46 dollars for it through Amazon and got it Tuesday morning. Woot for hitting every possible deal combination possible.
This still makes it seem less worth it.

I think the right thing to do would be to set up something like 2K did for Bioshock defects - give people the Hobbe bobbleheads and cards (whatever was in the original package) at a later time, say by sending in proof of purchase?
As far as I've heard - correct me if I'm wrong - but they weren't included because of manufacturing problems, right? So... correct those problems, produce the extra items, and send them out to CE owners as a "sorry, our bad, even though we lowered the price."

Fable 2 and Saints Row 2 both screwed me over with promises of exclusive in-game content with preorders/limited editions, neither of which ended up being exclusive at all. It really makes me want to stop preordering games at all.

Fable 2 has taught me that i have the right to choose to scam or not to scam the system.
I'll deal with the consequences if/when they come. For now, i'll take some free DLC please!

Well then, I'd like to see them prove that I don't have a copy of Fable 2 CE sitting on a shelf at my house.
Like someone else already said, Fable 2 is letting us choose our own destiny and I choose the evil scamming Microsoft for free DLC path.

they could have at least used some other piece of CE pack-ins to verify you have that version a la 1980's copyright protection. "What is word 5 on the bottom of map insert."
oh well, their laziness is our gain!

Is it scamming if you planned on buying the CE but didn't due to fear of not getting the DLC card in the case? I think not!
