    Jeff Gardiner on aliens

    FO2 is loose with cannon so I don't really see why everyone gets up in arms about this being the case in FO3. Cracks start to appear straight after the first game and that's to be expected. New contributors were brought in...time had passed...the proof reading was probably not high up the 'to...

    Point Lookout press release, screenshots, trailer

    Ah well nevermind. Really did enjoy Dark Corners. Played a few horror games since then but nothing with the atmosphere of that game.

    Point Lookout press release, screenshots, trailer

    Out of all the DLC released so far I have not downloaded a single one. This does not look too bad however. Yeah, it doesn't fit but then nothing fits with the original, as this forum has discussed to death. If the writing can match the detail of Dark Corners then it could be a worthwhile...

    Will Fallout 3 be remembered?

    I think that people (new and old) need to remember that this is a FALLOUT fan site. Thats all things fallout including 3 which is is apparent that many people are uncomfortable with. After many replays I can't say that it lived up to my expectations but there were many enjoyable moments...

    Fallout 3 Broken Steel DLC to change ending

    No I think he left because of people like you. You know, the whole 'I have something to say but because Im not sure what it is Ill just wrap it up in smugness and aggressive language and pass it off as something constructive' crap is frankly a pathetic way to represent your argument. Logical...

    NMA: Fallout 3 impressions

    So many people however enjoy this game. You know there is a divide in opinion as that is the catalyst for the majority of discussions here. If Paul_cz enjoys the game and has fun playing it for over 45 hours then why shouldn't he judge the game great. Surely you are not suggesting that he...

    Problems with FO3 summed up with old quote

    You may be right. However, many people do enjoy their style of game environment. A lot of people. Certainly enough to make Bethseda a shed load of money to finance their next outing and allow everyone to keep their job. Personally, I enjoy their games. I can see why people are dismayed...

    Imagination - The cornerstone of Fallout's Universe.

    Seriously. Have you played this game at all? Quick run down. Inside most buildings there are lights on the wall. Stand under the light and you are there for all to see. Stand away from the light where it is darker and you may have a chance to be undetected. Sneaking by enemies at night is...

    Fallout 3 patch 1.0.0.15 released

    Happened to me on level four too. All I did was sleep somewhere and as soon as I woke up the point distribution screen appeared.

    Fallout 3 tidbits

    Appreciate it's a different kettle of fish but have had no bugs or crashes on the 360 version so far. Pretty seamless really apart from the crazy ragdoll physics on a few dead critters.

    Spoiler. "Wondering about missiles"

    Heraopx did you diffuse the bomb and refuse to help Burke? I did and I assumed thats why I had the talon guard after me.

    But was the spirit preserved?

    Not played The Witcher, so will take your word for it. The thread was about 'the spirit' of Fallout. The elements that we are presently discussing are niggles and annoyances (that for me don't spoil the game beyond playability). I think that the atmosphere has been carried through very well...

    But was the spirit preserved?

    Agreed. The 3rd person angle is...well....pointless. Beth should've just had the conviction tostick to their FPS guns and done away with it. I suppose it is part of the engine. Poss an over the shoulder cam which is recently popular (GOW, Deadspace, etc.) wouldve been a better choice. The...

    But was the spirit preserved?

    Re: the voice acting. I think its quite reasonable for voices to be duplicated. This is a big game, with alot of variables and alot of NPCs. Now I do understand why it grates with people - bit of an immersion killer but I can't think of an RPG on a similar scale with an individual voice for...

    But was the spirit preserved?

    VATS is the one thing that seems to rile quite a few people. I think many people are under the impression that Beth just threw it in. Personally I think that it incorporates a tactical system quite well. Example: Fighting Nukalurks (tough little buggers!) used vats to rifle their eyes and...

    Fallout 3 - First Mods

    So are we going to take everything back to the first game? How inward looking. How restrictive. Nothing is wrong in Fallout 2. Just different. You pick what you like and discard what you don't. Same with FO3. No big deal. You don't go and see a comedian and find all his jokes funny. Its...

    But was the spirit preserved?

    Agree with the posts saying that the game is how I imagined Fallout in 1st person. The details are all there: the footlockers, the filing cabinets, the foodstuffs, the vault corridors.....all excellent recreations of their previous 2d incarnations. The 'exploring music' though when you...

    Fallout 3 - First Mods

    Any bashing that involves the criticizm of fire breathing ants etc. is quite strange as the previous game included 'Keeng Rat'. A rat that could talk no less. A. talking. rat. I guess mutations can account for all sorts of things right? :wink: A baby calling his dad 'Daddy' is gay...

    Students of Fallout

    I see. Well I was playing Duke Nukem. Great fun. Played the demo on Xbox Live recently. Terrible but amusing if only for a short while. A bit before, I think I finished Syndicate on the Amiga about 20 times :wink: awesome game. Played it a few months ago (PC version which was far inferior...

    Students of Fallout

    How do you define a popcorn game? One man's nectar is another man's poison. I really think kits just down to what captures your imagination at that time of your life. (edit Welsh- Thou shalt not double post! add to prior post.) Apologies for the double post............it gets a bit quiet...
