I've found going to Vegas through Hidden Valley/Scorpion Gulch is very easy at the start if you find at least one on stealth boy in Goodsprings, just kill the Bark Scorpions, run past the first Giant Scorpion you see and then activate the stealth boy once you get near the area with lost laser...

I'm a professional software developer and agree. On another site I mentioned that Bethesda did QA and made the call to release the game in its bugged state, so they were as much fault, and I got a response saying that even without QA the game shouldn't have been so buggy, which to me is...

I got Dead Money and Honest Hearts off PSN last night with no problems and started Dead Money, so far I enjoy it. I liked to talking to God and has a nice atmosphere overall.

Fallout New Vegas Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne KOTOR Jagged Alliance 2 Suikoden Romance of the Three Kingdoms IX Arcanum Ultima VII Fire Emblem (VII)

Bugs can be patched, crappy content can't. The attacks on Obsidian are ridiculous, their games aren't significantly more buggy than a lot of developers, especially ones that make western RPGs, especially Bethesda. Occasional freezes aren't the end of the world, neither is bugged minor...

Laughlin and Bullhead are just a little south of Searchlight, so they just missed the cut. Havasu is a bit further down. The Colorado Belle casino is sort of ridiculous and might make an interesting setting. With the open world type games the world has to cover a pretty small area. If...

I disagree, the opening video in Fallout has retro American music, the Vault-Tec video, the news reel footage, War Bonds advertisment, and Corvega commercial, its all atomic age America; Fallout 2 is similar and that is all before you start playing the game. Once the game starts you see the...

I don't love EA at all, but they have done some ok things, FIFA soccer is much a better game than it used to be. I used to be a diehard PES player, but EA has absolutely trounced that franchise the last few years by making a better product and many of the changes they've made to that series are...

I meant over, as in no good developer ever working on it again, which wouldn't surprise me. I'm sure it will live on Elder Scrolls with guns for a long time. New Vegas was a nice last hurrah for Fallout with role playing, if that is what comes of it. Sounds like it made a lot of money though...

I agree that anything on a legally purchased item that prevents it from working is stupid and usually counterproductive. Pirates are going to pirate, they are good at what they do, and things like this aren't going to stop it. Publishers need to focus giving their potential paying customer...

Obviously companies with policies like this are only doing it to make more money, not help the consumer. I've never said otherwise, if they say otherwise they are obviously lying. If consumers don't like their policies they can stop buying the games, but for the most part people don't as they...

I just happy they were finally to get a lot of their ideas for a Fallout game out there after all these years, because they had a lot of good ones. Really the Fallout series is far enough long and said enough of what its developers want to say, that if they never make another that is fine, New...

The art and design, music and culture of Fallout is so distinctly Americana that is would be a pretty big departure to move it outside America. It is not impossible to set the game elsewhere, but it would definitely have a different feel to it. It would also probably require different...

How does Project Ten Dollar not affect Gamestop? It rewards people for purchasing games new instead of used games where Gamestop makes bigger profits. People don't only buy used games because used games are too expensive, people buy used games because they cost less than new games; I'd guess...

Game companies are businesses and need to make money, if they think second hand games are cutting into their profits then coming up with ways of counteract that is smart business, whether it is through download content, online play licenses, subscription services or whatever. When a company...

Anyone tuning into Family Radio this Saturday to here the world end live as it happens? http://www.familyradio.com/ http://www.radiosurvivor.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/159.jpg I'm almost interested just out of gross curiosity.

Where does the idea that the Legion wants to burn down Vegas come from? I see it stated a lot, but it contradicts what were are told in the game. Caesar pretty explicitly states he wants Vegas to be his Rome, the glorious capitol of his new empire; that sounds more like building it up than...

Plot is an overrated aspect of writing and story, especially in games, there is a reason a lot of modern fiction has abandoned traditional plot structures, its really not that important, what is important is what the writing does on the way. Does it create a believable and interesting world...

I think cheaper downloadable games are the way to go for turn based games. Most of the fans of these games don't care as much as much about graphics, which can really drive the development cost way down and make them viable to sell at lower prices. As for Dragon Age II, playing on the higher...

A lot Obsidian's quality problems come from trying to do much in the amount of time they have to develop their games, but at the same time, that isn't always bad; I rather have a bugged at release New Vegas with tons of content than something like Dragon Age II that is on a much smaller scale...
