I saw a commercial for this last night. It wasn't even the full trailer - it was a commercial to get people to go online to watch the trailer. Based on nothing more than that commercial and the news post here on NMA, my prediction is this: [spoiler:6de999a83e]The supposedly extraterrestrial...

You've raped the NMA site layout! I'm boycotting NMA!!! Seriously, though, I think it's pretty sharp :clap:

I admit - I'm a slacker. I finally put in my Kickstarter pledge, though. I didn't even know it was linked to Amazon. If I had, I would have pledged sooner (I didn't have my credit card on me before).

From the unofficial FAQ: What system requirements will this game require to play? TGE system requirements are Pentium III 1000, 512 MB RAM. About the graphics card, AoD worked fine on GeForce4 MX440 with 64mb onboard. We'll be able to be more precise about this before release.

That's how I read it, too. Since the publishers really aren't paying attention to DLC, developers have more freedom. Thus, MCA enjoyed what they were able to do with the DLCs.

But...Bethesda already made a "Fallout in name only". Why would they want Interplay to do it again?

Sounds pretty damned r-tarded, having everything to do with Vegas and nothing to do with Fallout. I suspect this was Beth's idea and they made Obsidian develop it.

I think Perry can do well as a "smooth talking, two faced gangster". He's not a tough guy - he'd be more of a smart manipulator.

I have 2 points. 1. I said I would be likely to laugh at a person acting like a buffoon. "Acting like a buffoon" does not include being born a particular race, holding certain beliefs, or being a certain gender (or believing one is a certain gender). To the specific example at hand, some...

Yes, actually. They may be ignorant, and they may be wrong, but they have the right to laugh at whatever they think is funny. They are NOT entitled to discriminate against a person based on race. If a person acts like a buffoon, I might laugh; and i won't feel a bit guilty about it.

Sometimes, yes. They have the right to wear and behave how they want (within the law). I have the right to laugh at what I find humorous.

I suspect this is as good as it's going to get for SM textures. I don't think we'll see anything in 3D that looks as good as the 10+ year old talking heads for quite some time. Much improved over Beth's version, anyway. I may end up trying out NV, after skipping "FO3" completely.

Maybe Fargo can be considered a sperm donor for Fallout, having worked on Wasteland and giving the go-ahead to develop Fallout, but Fallout was definitely raised by Cain, Boyarksy, Anderson, et al.

Let's see...$150 for a modded 360, plus about $300 for an unmodded one to play online Or This: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883103236 for the same money to run whatever Fallout 3 mods you want.
