    Fallout 3 Gamestar preview

    Someone forgot (again) to mention the portable nuclear shelter :lol: brought to you by VAULT-TECH AMERICA - for better future, tomorrow today :D No, seriously.... A portable nuclear shelter :roll: shaped like a telephone booth from the 1950's ? What's next - exploding cars? Oh wait...

    Tim Cain doesn't comment on Fallout 3

    If you go to adventuregamers.ocm, you get treated to an interview with Benoit Sokal & al. (the developers of adventure games like Syberia and Paradise). In the second part of the interview (up now), they talk about how the (adventure) gamer(s) want something from the company making adventure...

    SeanMike on Fallout 3 as a sequel

    Let me start this comment a little differently, then. (I promise there is a point - see if you can find it ;) ). Batman Begins was a great movie. It took the Batman lore very seriously and treated the backstory in the Batman universe with respect. It also made a fresh start with the series...

    Pete Hines interview on SPOnG

    While the interview is pretty good, I still need to say that the main quest in Fallout is both :violent: and like a :wall: Pete Hines also described the VATS combat. I didn't get any the wiser from reading this. It sounded, from what Pete described, as something between the combat in an FPS...

    Tim Cain doesn't comment on Fallout 3

    Doesn't Tim Cain still work in the game industry?? If so, it is understandably that he doesn't want to comment on Beth's Fallout 3. He probably doesn't want to say anything that will make his employers see him in a bad light... As for Leonard's feelings, it is understandable that he feels...

    Mass Effect and Fallout 3, the death of CRPGs?

    If you go this site, you can read a very fine interview with the doctors and Casey Hudson: http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/rpg/masseffect/news.html?sid=6175375&mode=previews One thing that made me content and somewhat anxious to get this game seems to be that this game actually deal with...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Gaming Trend

    I don't how much money you make, Ron, from your dayjob ;). But that's not the point here. The point here is many of this site's admins live in Europe where plane tickets to the US cost a great deal of money, (I think?). And then, there's the hotel accomodation etc. And I know that the US...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Gaming Trend

    I'm still somewhat cautiously optimistic about Fallout 3. However, Bethesda needs to realize that once a gaming community trust is broken it takes along time to repair. And people feel that Bethesda devs. outright lied to them about Oblivion. There wasn't much choice & consequence in...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Gaming Trend

    I don't believe anything I read on the internet, or any place else for that matter. But I do believe in proof. And I think we have a very good proof in one of the the posts in the Oblivion General Forums over at the BGSF boards. One dedicated poster made a thread about 'Radiant AI - nothing was...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Gaming Trend

    You may be right --- and then again, no, I don't thin you are. And here's why: Last night I watched the movie Pleasantville. It is set in the 1950's, and while it is a sort ironic and sarcastic comment, imo, in how live was like in the 1950's, it is exactly the same world as the Fallout's...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Gaming Trend

    :shock: What a great preview :D It's one of the best, of not THE best preview, I've seen yet. It is professionally written, detailing everything he saw in the demo. Nice job :) As for your comments on the Fatman and the Behemoth, please try to remember that this demo probably was...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Gaming Trend

    I don't think Bethesda take the Fallout franchise seriously. And by that I don't mean that they don't work hard and is making the best game they can. I know they are doing their best. But let's examine Fallout's history and canon a bit: The premise for Fallout is a 1950's world spun 150-200...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Golem.de

    -yes, we did. But I think this has been known for long time. Ever since Emil P. and Todd H. gave the double interview to a certain website (sorry, forgot which one :?: ). Or was it the interview with Kathode ? (Gavin Carter). I can live with that. As long as I know it. I just don't do...

    Brian Fargo in GFW

    Yes, of course, games needs to make a profit :) It just seems to me, at least, that in the 1990's, game developers didn't listen very much to the market department. If they had, would we have gotten a game like Grim Fandango, or a game like Gabriel Knight 1 or Ultima IV (4) where all you do...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - NYTimes

    I know several people that have admitted crying during the adventure game King's Quest 4 in which Rosella is going to save her father, the King. So yes, (some) videogames can make you cry. As for games generating a deep emotional response, whenever I look upon the two moons in Cyrodiil, I feel...

    Brian Fargo in GFW

    And the above comment from Brian Fargo about EA trying to "reach their financial goals for their quarter end" is exactly what is wrong with gaming today. (and with capitalism today). Most developes (and publishers) do have some sort of contract today (I think?) that stipulates that if sales...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Golem.de

    :shock: So now the player is some kind of psychic clairvoyant dude - if he's got a high perception :roll: :crazy: Maybe there will be a text saying 'you see shadows inside' ' or 'your hear people move about'. But the ability to see through thick doors & walls :o If I didn't find the...

    Unkillable Children and Can You Mod Them Out

    I have felt it coming for a lomg time now. And my guess is that there won't be any CS Kit for Fallout 3. Period. Ever. And no matter what Emil P. is saying about the infamous modding incident, it has everything to do with this. Bethsoft are very scared, imo. that a modder, any modder really...

    Superplay Fallout 3 preview

    I think they have talked too much to the Bioware devs. as this game now has the dialogue markings of a Bioware game on it: 1)bad 2)good 3)neutral choices in dialogues... As for the RT aimed shot, not necessarily making it, to me, at least, that's a good thing. It will confuse the...
