Its not really any different than how I got my Rosella for free because the pet shop only charged us for the enormous cage, they can't come to my house demanding I pay them what they forgot to charge me (well they can but I'd just laugh and close the door).Fable II was developed by Lionhead Studios and published by Microsoft Game Studios. Ultimately if microsoft have fucked up, they can't punish their customers for it, there's been nothing that violates the terms of service, no hacks, no account sharing, no single player cheats (oh wait, wrong company), just people taking advantage of a mistake. I've gotten some DLC and an arcade game or 2 for free because of this sort of thing. Well its never happened with all the other times things have been accidently made free. Drmlessgames: So if this was a mistake then I suppose some people are going get booted.
