Tired of waiting for Fable 2? Well, you're about to get a little taste of it, as Microsoft has reported via the Gamerscore Blog that Pub Games, a collection of three minigames in which you can earn gold that can be transfered to Fable 2 upon its release, will be available on XBLA in August.

You'll be able to gamble away your virtual capital in the following games:

• Spinnerbox, an updated take on slot machines.
• Keystone, a combination of Craps and Roulette.
• Fortune's Tower, a "press your luck" style of game.

Pub Games will cost you 800 Microsoft points unless you preorder, in which case the collection is free.
