I pretty much belittle the fanboys mostly, for being mindless sheep. "Well, your opinion is wrong! Fallout 3 got Game of the Year awards!" To which, we've already seen the problems with people who give those awards. I pan them for calling Fallout 3 the "greetest gaem evar!" when they...

Well, I loved Fallout 2 because if you cleared out all the silliness like the ghost girl or talking deathclaws, you still had a great story that arced together. There was a great framework that was cluttered on top with some nonsense. You couldn't do that in Fallout 3. I tried to like...

I had one of those early AMD dual-cores... I also remember trying to paint the case myself... Don't let the numbers fool you, I put this together in 2004. It's so half-assed. What the hell was I thinking when I did this?

They don't even have to watch. They just go and play the game, and you donate some cash or something. As for how it works, I imagine they'll take 4-hour turns, with no one doing back-to-back turns. Like 24 hours of Le Mans racing. This reduces fatigue and the likelihood of "Korean computer...

Here's one I remember, but had no idea what the game was about: I had MULE for the old NES, and I didn't realize that the cover for the original is pretty spot on: Compare to what I knew:

Indeed, my first play through included me running into Megaton's Sheriff, and one of the first dialogue options is "Let's discuss this bomb." Wait, what bomb? You mean there's a bomb in town?! Well, screw that, I'm leaving! Or later, Seagrave Holmes' first encounter mentions T-51b power...

We here at Vault City LOOOOVE making lists. The problem is that everyone has their own favorite games. Many of Fallout 3 and other games will defend their favored game by pointing out that random gaming sites or magazines gave that game "Game of the Year." But then, we look around and...

The question I ask is whether the current 7th gen consoles can or will be repackaged for the casual gamer now to enjoy the large library of games available now. The concern mirrors sea's question of production costs. With all the hub-bub about the next generation of consoles, it has to be...

Just an educated guess, but the location where he's at has several Vertibirds, so it's very likely to be a refueling station. The only place on the I-15 that would be of strategic importance is Barstow, CA. which has a Marine logistics base, and a location near Fort Irwin and the...

Star Trek Online now that it's free to play. It's not bad. It's in a weird spot where it's too good to be free, but I wouldn't pay a subscription fee for it.

Hanlon says this about NCR salavaged power armor: "Techs strip out the joint servos so you don't need special training to wear it." It seems they simply rushed the salvaged armor out into the field to meet a demand for better gear by taking the shortcut. In another thread, we'd discussed...

Tell that to S.D. Perry, who has a... creepy fixation on our little Becky. They really did try to make her a likable character. But no... no she's not. Be gone with her!

I dunno, the Dark Knight Rises looks pretty crazy so far. For the Dark Knight, the opening bank scene was used as a teaser. The same is true for the new film (apparently this showed before Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgZiLBQ0nwU&feature=related

In this case, it might be a little bit too much fiction, as Tesla himself did not live far enough into the Fallout timeline to have been using technology to extend his life that long. Not without pushing the envelope of his mad genius past the breaking point. I could see this sort of thing...

There's always room for improvement. For Obsidian it's just to give themselves a little more breathing room when it comes to deadlines.

That's just business, unfortunately. In order to make a deadline, they had to cut content and do with the game as best as they could, see NWN2 and KOTOR2. It's why such things as certain endings and characters were cut from the game itself, i.e. Ulysses as a companion. If anything, Obsidian...
