General: Fable Legends PAX East Hands-On Preview

Fable Legends PAX East Hands-On Preview

Prior to arriving at PAX East, I’d heard of Fable Legends, but I honestly didn’t pay too much attention to it. I’m a fan of the Fable IP, but I haven’t really been grabbed by anything to come from it since the series’ debut (on PC) back in 2005. I had no expectations for the game when we arrived at the Microsoft booth to take some footage of the free-to-play title, but once I got to the booth I just had to get my hands on it.

Mad Catz References Early Street Fighter IV Arcade Stick in Upcoming Tournament Edition 2 Variant

Back in the summer of 2009, Mad Catz and Capcom partnered to release their first limited edition variant of the Street Fighter IV Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition at San Diego Comic-Con. With only 250 ever made, this version of the original Tournament Edition arcade stick has now become a highly sought after item among aficionados and collectors.

Now, Mad Catz is looking back to that stick for their first exclusive model of the Tournament Edition 2. This RIVALS variant features an all-white casing, orange bezel, and orange and yellow Sanwa parts, just like the aforementioned Comic-Con release. Even the art, which is new, pays homage to the original’s design.

If you’re interested in grabbing one of these for yourself head on over to Mad Catz’ site to sign up and be notified when it goes on sale. Regional availability will be determined on this registration, so this is a good chance for folks outside of areas like the United States and Japan to show they want this and future limited edition sticks released in their neck of the woods.

Mad Catz’ RIVALS Tournament Edition 2, which is compatible with both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, will be available at select events and online this summer.
