Not that it makes any difference - it's still a pop reference, at the very least as jarring and dumb as any of those in Fallout 2 that Beth claimed to be avoiding - but it resembles a hell of a lot more Kamen Rider than it does The Tick. Either way, it shouldn't be in the game at all, as it just...

Just thought I'd share the first image I found in the net of this abomination. Turns out the AntAgonizer is way dumber than I'd ever thought possible, he looks like something out of a freaking tokusatsu instead of a deranged wastelander. Nice job on keeping the Fallout atmosphere there, Beth.

Maybe they are stupid enough to believe all that bullshit Emil said. But yeah, "the ESRB made me do it" would be a much better excuse in terms of PR. It's not like they didn't have any other options there. How about not making any gory animations or effects for children dying? You shoot...

It seems that the ending sequence is even more blatantly moronic than we may have thought at first. Bethesda wrote itself into a corner, and instead of scraping that idea they insisted on it with despite its obvious flaws. [spoiler:47ae7a0741]Not only was the Power Armor/Rad-X issue largely...

Last submission, then. Never before had I wasted so much time on such an obvious joke, damn your mind-numbingly thorough wiki timeline for triggering my OCD, Ausir :). Humor is a particularly subjective thing, but from my experience, the best to be found in Fallout 3 is involuntary. Damn, do...

Text should probably go in the shirt, but I'm not that good at Paint. Plus, can't add bullet holes to it, so meh. Cheap shot, but someone's got to take them.

For some reason, I can't bring myself to feel bad for them. In the worst case scenario, they're talentless hacks feasting on the corpse of other people's creations. At best, they're incompetent and too proud to admit not having what it takes to make a decent Fallout. Either way, they're going...

Funny how he manages to turn the tables into being oh-so considerate towards the franchise. Yeah, Pete, the only options were to name it Fallout 3 or gloss over the original. No alternative whatsoever has been pointed out a thousand times even on your own forums. And now, unfortunately...

I got the impression that they were trying too hard to emulate Mad Max with those end-game monologues, and failed miserably. Too much focus on the character, "the wanderer" and somesuch, while locations were largely ignored by the narration (Megaton doesn't even have any voice-over in the bad...

Who are they selling this bullshit to? We know it's not even close to it, and the public in general couldn't give less of a shit about faithfulness to games they never played. It's a less obvious lie than the ones being spread about the "awesome" graphics, but it boggles the mind because there's...

But does child-killing really mean instant AO rating? Both the original games were rated M despite including it rather unapologetically. Granted, I know precious little about their criteria, and the graphics' realism may factor in heavily; but wouldn't it be possible to, say, include it without...

Mister Sandman sounds largely useless, I wonder why all the mystery around it back in the E3 previews. Is this the whole list of non-quest-related perks? Hahaha oh boy, this is priceless. Who would have thought they actually listened to their fans? I saw this exact template on an Elder...

Excuse me while I throw up. I knew Desslock was something of a TES fanboy, but this stuff is way too out there. Darker, less humor, more plausible, haunting? There's just too much info around on imbecilic shit for me to believe allegations of that caliber - the guy is basically saying it's...

I don't think I'd call that great. There are already Fallout 1/2 mods if one wants only new story or locations, no reason to the same from a sequel. Now, I think Megaman 9 was the right way to go for the series, but simply because the 8-bit graphics have time and again proven to better suit...

This is precisely why I think the gaming industry shouldn't adhere to all this hand-holding trends. Most gamers do want to be challenged, they're just not used to it anymore due to the suits' perception of the market and its expectations which leads to quest compasses and vita chambers alike...

Glowing Ones can throw radioactive hadoukens at you. Haven't seen videos of it, but it's been known for a while. Just another example of Beth taking a dump on setting and consistency to shoehorn fantasy cliches (ogre-magi, anyone?), I guess.

Is it just me or is that Deathclaw remarkably like this one from the gallery? Perhaps they used it as a model? [spoiler:ec100e19a9]Wow, Beth managed to fuck up both moral ambiguity and choices and consequences with one stroke of the pen on this one. Aside from the inherent idiocy of this...

I'm not big on arguing semantics, but the whole "apples and oranges" stuff is usually reserved for analogies perceived as invalid. Add to that the seemingly rethorical question of "Why should Fallout 3 be compared with the first two games when it is nothing like them?" and we have a statement...

Since when is the point of reviews selling more copies of any given game? I get that it's roughly what goes on in the industry nowadays, but that does not make it any less shoddy journalism. I'm having a hard time reading this in any other way.

If you agree that Bethesda gets the final say in it being a sequel then you judge it as a stand-alone title despite that, you are kinda not judging the game by what it is. Naming and conventions are a part of reality, an important one even. If someone calls himself a doctor, for an instance...
