    Voice acting - Liam Neeson has lead role in Fallout 3

    I'd rather see them get the gameplay and setting right than blow their budget on movie stars. F1/F2 had Ron Perlman, Michael Dorn, and Richard Dean Anderson, but I bet Neeson is getting paid what those 3 got combined.

    Shacknews interview on Fallout 3 with Pete Hines

    You CANNOT convince me that top-down and turn-based are not commercially viable. EVERY RTS game ever made uses a top-down view. Some let you zoom in and even take a 1st person view, but top-down is where the meat of the gameplay takes place. Diablo, Dungeon Siege, and Titan's Quest are all...

    NMA article: About Fallout Fans

    A lot of the despair over Bethesda's FO3 is based on comments they made shortly after acquiring the license in 2004. At that point they had nothing but the license itself. As was stated at the time, the announcement was only made because it was a business requirement. If we can give them the...

    NMA article: About Fallout Fans

    The anger in the Fallout fan community was well earned by Herve and Co through their (his) idiotic, bordering on criminal, mismanagement of Interplay, BIS, Micro Forte, and the Fallout property. The only vision Herve has is a view of the inside of his own colon. Really, to allow Interplay to...
