Bleh, even going in expecting an "omg action!" trailer, this was pretty disappointing. I do like the environments quite a bit, I think the overall lighting makes a pretty big difference from F3 thankfully. I also loved the shot of the robot driving down the Vegas street. But I dunno... The...

I like that there will be separate music for the different areas in the game. The music shifting on your actions, well.. It's a nice idea and could work well but I *really* hope they keep it subtle. I've never been a fan of the "you look like a monster" visual feedback if you play evil in...

Reading the wiki on those damn wasps, bleeuyrgh. Goddamn I hate insects. Hope these things will be dangerous in the game though and not just nuisances like the Bloatflies.

Just action gameplay from this fucking engine, well... it looks horrendous and gives me bad flashbacks. Grenade miniguns and orbital lasers also don't look very... inspiring. The lighting and overall mood looks better than F3 but sheesh. Way to go to put together a really uninteresting video...

I'm currently on my second playthrough, enjoying myself. A lot of the split on the game also seems to be how tolerant people seem to be on polish as well as looks. Some of my favorite games of all time (Arcanum, Prelude to Darkness) have been severely lacking in polish and have featured some...

I finished a playthrough of Alpha Protocol earlier today and was very pleased with it. Now, I don't think there's any question whether the game had problems in its development cycle. But my experience (with the PC version) was that, while it does not have the same amount of polish and just...

I also generally like the idea of having minigames, *if* they are related to stuff like gambling. I liked Dice Poker in the Witcher for example, though the AI was rather strange. And we know that Luck will play a big part in the gambling. I didn't mind the lockpicking minigame much. As far...

Ferret worked at OEI for a while and was one of the lead guys at NWN2 and then moved to Bioware and was one of the lead guys of Dragon Age and its expansion. While I think Dragon Age is a far superior campaign on its own, it's pretty amusing to see some of the similarities to NWN2 (especially in...

Splitting the explosion making weapons into the Explosives skill sounds strange from a "reality standpoint". But from a rebalancing perspective it could be good, boosting Explosives usefulness a bit. Hopefully there will be some rebalancing done so that the new Firearms skill (small and big...

I think Metallic Monks is my favorite Fallout track. It just seems to capture the technology of the BoS combined with the whole tragedy of the post-apocalypse (most likely due to that siren you can hear). I also like Vault of the Future which really brings across the oppression and creepiness...

Not a fan of this image. Just doesn't stand out much and the revolver just feels out of place. I like showing the Vegas backdrop but the slightly hellish red doesn't seem to fit the game, at least from what little we've seen so far. Not very important all in all of course.

Press release.<blockquote>BETHESDA SOFTWORKS ANNOUNCES FALLOUT®: NEW VEGASTM COLLECTOR'S EDITION Fallout: New VegasTM Collector's Edition to be Available Worldwide May 11, 2010 (London, UK) – Bethesda Softworks®, a ZeniMax® Media company, today announced the Fallout®: New Vegas™ collector’s...

I've never liked the visual idea of the Legion either (whether from Van Buren or this), having the roman thing going on using remains of football uniforms and all that. But it does sound like it could be an interesting faction. I really, really hope they manage to go beyond the "evil slavers"...

More from the guy who posted the second bit of info in the OP. Not really what I expected from Vegas, sounds like it could be interesting.

Nope. I can't remember where I got them but my Fallout 2 soundtrack folder has the full track names as well.

That's great Ausir. It's still a large step from the original muties but I think the one in this screenshot looks a lot better than the F3 ones. The next step would be removing the cookie monster voiceovers.

Great stuff so far, the quality really makes a difference. Hard to tell exactly what is remixed and what is not (since much of it is so ambient). But in A Trader's Life you can definitely tell that there's been some minor tinkering. :)

I also think it's a fair point to wait until the community gets its hands on the actual game. But I really hope we won't get that old stereotypical argument again prior to the game release, you know the one that goes...: Side 1: "Oh god, they ruined Fallout, Fallout is never gonna come...

This is pretty welcome news for me, at least from the way Sawyer talks about it. This reads as if it's not just there for the lulz. I replayed Fallout 2 recently and New Reno didn't stand out as being as silly and stupid as I remembered it to be. A lot of the groundwork is pretty great I...

Wouldn't it be great if they made you an easter egg just for that comment? Yeah, that'd be awesome!
