With Xbox keen to win back favor after the all-round drubbing Redfall has received upon launch, along with the tepid overall response to Halo Infinite, the big green brand has found themselves with their backs in the corner at yet another summer showcase. They’ve announced an Xbox Games Showcase on Sunday, June 11th, which will be followed by a Starfield Direct presentation immediately afterwards. With E3 being canceled again this year, and Geoff Keighley only vaguely threatening everyone with an entire summer of his face at the moment, it seems that Xbox have become the first to get their foot in the door. Straight from the source: Lionhead Studios Twitter: ' Make sure you both download the FREE WEAPONS DLC - in order to play #Fable III co-op over Xbox LIVE.We’re rapidly approaching the summer gaming news blitzkrieg, where the biggest publishers and gaming companies in the world line up to parade their upcoming wares. Hopefully the team at Lionhead studios get this figured out with a title update or some other way to let gamers play together without interruptions such as these. This weapon pack halted co-op, but is easily remedied at the link above.

Much to my relief, this message only applied to one piece of free DLC, which is the Free weapon pack. Many of us have loads of different DLC from various sources, including a book, a game controller, different retailers pre-order bonuses, and whatever we've decided to purchase. My initial reaction, as well as the initial reactions of many of my peers, was outrage. This error screen complained about incompatible DLC between players, not allowing us to play together based on some unknown DLC error.

Last Tuesday many of us tried to fire up our Xbox 360 copy of Fable III to see if the co-op was up to snuff this time, only to be met with an error screen.
