The good folk over at loinhead (that's loinhead not Lionhead) have apparently got their hands on the image that you see to the right.

In the event that you can't be bothered to turn your head slightly in that direction, the image appears to show someone looking suspiciously like Halo's Master Chief playing something that looks suspiciously like a lute (or it could be a mandolin, who knows?).

As the loinhead people point out, they got their hands on the image "in the style of Fable 2 very shortly after the Collector's Edition was announced".

They are, of course, correct. The Collector's Edition of Fable 2 has been announced. It contains:

A bonus disc with a new behind-the-scenes making of video
A collectible Hobbe figure
An Xbox LIVE trial card
Additional in-game content (an Xbox LIVE account is required to access the limited collector’s edition bonus in-game content).

There are also "'Xbox LIVE Arcade Fable II Pub Games (which will be available as one download) are: "Keystone," which is a combination of Craps and Roulette, "Spinnerbox," which is an updated take on slot machines, and "Fortune's Tower," which is a press your luck style of game. The download will also include a Shell, which is a tutorial of all three games." These would normally set you back 800 MS points.

Back to the image, whether or not it actually is from Lionhead itself... well, it's a bloody funny pic.
