Fable takes place in the fictional world of Albion. Players assume the role of an orphaned boy who realizes his dream of becoming a hero. The choices players make in the game affect the perception and reaction to their Hero by the characters of Albion, and change the Hero's appearance to mirror what good or evil deeds the Hero has performed. In addition to undertaking quests to learn what happened to the Hero's family, players can engage in optional quests and pursuits such as trading, romance, and theft.
Fable was expanded and rereleased as Fable: The Lost Chapters for Xbox and Windows PC platforms in September 2005. The game was later ported to Mac OS X by Feral Interactive.
The Lost Chapters features all the content found in the original Fable,
as well as additional new content such as new monsters, weapons,
alignment based spells, items, armor, towns, buildings, and
expressions, as well as the ability to give children objects. The story
receives further augmentation in the form of nine new areas and sixteen
additional quests. Characters such as Briar Rose and Scythe, who played
only minor roles in the original game, are now given more importance
and are included in certain main and side quests.

What does not
Sound didn't work no matter what settings I tried
Shadows show up as black on the screen
Anti-Aliasing was shaded out so you couldn't select it
At the end of the installation, it stills asks for the first CD and it doesn't ever recognize that it is in the drive.

Additional Comments
If you want the game full screen you have to make it so window manager doesn't control the windows or else it will resize your resolution and make it a window so part of it is cut off. The disadvantage of doing this, you have to set the resolution back manually when done playing.
