    Fallout 3 at E3 - Gamehelper

    I believe your being called a troll for claiming that "other Fallout fans spewing bile about Fallout 3," which I happen to believe meets the defination of trolling quite nicely. On Topic: I read that 140 NPC's is the total according to this review(ref...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Gamehelper

    I believe this is the most disturbing report I've seen to date, and I wonder what type of PR the Executive Producer is hoping to generate by lacing his press conference with expletives. I can only imagine a few possible scenarios for this choice of tactic: <blockquote> A. He was upset / angry...

    PC Gamer - Desslock and Dan

    On VATS v. Turn-Based: <blockquote> Desslock: The VATS combat system looks great and retains the feel of the original Fallout Games. Dan: Even though I’ve long considered myself in the “if it’s not turnbased it’s not Fallout camp,” I think Beth has come up with a fantastic compromise...

    Fallout 3 at E3 - GayGamer

    Token is an apt term here. Meh, old news, I want to hear about the portable black-hole generator powered by exploding nuclear fuel rods mixed with toilet water. (has this been announced yet?) Is it just me or are reviewers being handed a list of talking/bullet points to highlight in the...

    IGN interviews Emil Pagliarulo

    I would not be the least bit surprised to see: Harold (Iconic talking head from FO1 and FO2 to help sell the FO fans that this is FALLOUT, see Harold is in it!) DogMeat Jr. Zax / Some other AI Basically any NPC that's immortal, heck I would be surprised if the master has returned.

    Fallout 3 at E3 - Gaming Nexus

    To put it as succinctly as I know how: this lacks maturity. It comes across as what a teenager would put together – emphasis on gore, car goes nuclear, emphasis on foul language, town goes nuclear, huge emphasis on graphics, nuclear catapults…. This megaton example really sums up some of...

    Bethesda off to E3

    I'm not positive on this, if this game turns out to be worst case scenario, that is, it doesn’t appeal to the Fantasy RPG crowd, the Post-Apocalypse RPG Crowd or the FPS crowd then it will tank... hard. Far too little is know at this point, but I believe it's going to take a lot more then...

    Laser -- it's actually an acronym for... light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation So actually it has quite a bit to do with radation... This forgives none of Beth's sins... but the more you know :-) see also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser

    InsideGamer previews Fallout 3

    Could not agree more, good to see a review that expresses the concern I'm feeling. Bloddy Mess was an optional trait, not the core focus of FO that Todd is making it. (Don't get me wrong I love gore, I just love dialogue, setting, choices and dark humor more). As always, just my humble...

    RPGVault Fallout 3 preview

    First point: It's not unfounded mumblings if the devs and engine are the same as TES. Second Point: For such "fairly infrequent occurrences" there sure seems to be alot of ink from gaming press downplaying fan reaction... where there's smoke.... Now I'm just waiting for the confirmation...

    How to sway video game press on Washington Post

    At lesat Wapo is reporting the truth.. that these "industry insiders" are nothing more then bought-off mouth-pieces paid in favors and "exclusive access". Means there is ample room for a new breed of game-side, I wonder if "Industry Outsider" is taken. I wonder if Wapo will be invited to...

    NMA: indirect Fallout 3 Q&A

    Wow, a politician could hardly have done a better job of CYA then this "industry insider" did So, it test's his memory to think of the dialogue, I can only think of a few rational explanations for this: A. the reviewer didn't bother to read it B. He didn't have time to read it b/c the...

    Fallout 3 Preview Madness

    Anyone else noticed a complete absence of information on the dialogue other then the cryptic and depressing GI comment and a few even more depressing dev comments: Why do I have the feeling this is going to be a "Waterworld" of a game. I really hope Todd chokes on one of his snacks of...
