I got laid off a few months before the whole thing went down, but more or less, yeah. "The End of Late Fees" where they dropped the dollar a day late fee in favor of a far more convoluted method reduced profits by a fifth, then a few years later Netflix and Redbox came along and dealt the killing blow. Apparently Blockbuster had the idea for Netflix like, a decade before, but they were #1, so why compete against yourself? It was a long, slow death. Saved for a time by getting bought by DISH for a percentage that they bought themselves for from Viacom in '98. DISH just wanted the name and kept stores not hemorrhaging money long enough that they didn't have to pay early lease termination fees.
Didn't help that I had one boss in eight years that I liked and she left after six months for a better paying, less responsibility job hours closer to home.
Crackdown 1 was good for it's time, but both feel dated nowadays. If you want that over the top "Like Grand Theft Auto BUT" game, I'd suggest Saints Row IV. It's also on PS4 and X1 now too.
Fable...I have mixed options on. On one hand, it's a very solid third person fantasy game that unlike pretty much ever other one, doesn't take itself seriously. On the other hand, if you play the serious first one or lose interest in the humor, it feels slow and shallow compared to more modern fair. If you're on your 360 and get them for cheap, it might be worth your time. Otherwise, just get The Witcher III.
