Puppies!, Almost Perfect, WTF is this, Dumb & Dumber strike again? Lord have mercy! IDK but I have a suspicion that Todd wants to play the game with his son, and because his son is too young to play it, he degrades the game to match it with his skills. Wake me up when FO:NV comes out...

I remember trying very hard nuking Prime at the end phase of the game with more than a dozen of mini nukes (100 in Big Guns, Fatman in perfect cont.) but that damn thing was barely scratched. Transformer indeed. :D Bring on the heavy stuff, mamma!! Apparently, “the bigger, the better”, is...

Well, actually I’m very shocked that Emil is shocked about the writing award; also mea culpa for the ending, unbelievable, is something wrong with my eyes, am I reading this correctly? Something has changed in Bethesda, I think. First New Vegas announcement and now this. I wonder, if...

Yeah, probably hungry dwellers ate them, during the first years after the bombs fell. Life is harsh and unforgiving in the wasteland.

All the above, plus: Groin shots, you forgot the groin shots,damn it !! :) And with the appropriate animation, hehe. The place is Nevada desert, so I would like to see Geckos, the Golden and the Fire variety too. No more searches for your daddy/mammy/granny or any objects like the...

Zenimax bigwig 1: I see we’re loosing potential customers with the turn the fallout 3 has taken. That slice at the pie-chart needs to get bigger. Zenimax bigwig 2: You’re right; something has to be done about it. Pete, any suggestions for a quick cash in? A spin-off, maybe? Pete: May, I...

Exciting news, I couldn’t believe my eyes reading this. What a pleasant surprise hearing such news on a rather dull morning. I wish whole-heartedly good luck to the devs at Obsidian, I’m sure they can deliver a fine Fallout experience; given the situation/circumstances/restrains they’re into...

This thread is a good read with good points from everyone. I’d like to contribute by looking at things from a different angle. Recently, Todd Howard during a D.I.C.E. workshop analyzed Bethshoft’s modus operandi. He was referred, among other things, to three main goals a game company such as...

Yeah,the three friends could be a blending of Chico,Groucho,Harpo and "The Three Stooges" type of characters. Slapstick comedy FTW :D Joke aside,a Fallout movie could be feasible,given the greediness Bethesda is treating the franchise.Slating for late 2010-early 2011 would have been a more...

lol, nice try, happy april fool's.I'm waiting for The Road though. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0898367/

Same here. I’ve seen the vanilla game played in a quad 9550,4 Gigs of Ram,GTX 280,@1920,everything maxed out on a 50” panny plasma TV and the environs looked just amazingly fantastic. Animations though looked utterly ugly in comparison. They have probably used the same old technique...

Hahaha!!! That was a good laugh, you guys rock. :D With all due respect to the person, that smile gives me the creeps. Brrrr….

Good point, Jeff Gardiner is in Smooth Talker mode here; he obviously confuses Slavers with Raiders. By Beth’s logic Metzger was a Raider then. This is an indication of how good Bethesda comprehends the fallout lore.

The Pitt trailer, looks to me just like another well made cinematic trailer for a generic action movie, where in two minutes you’ve seen the best of it,got excited, but when you actually go and watch it, you’re left crying over the time and money you spent. Clearly game marketing begins...

Hey Aus,its an expression really, here’s a link that explains, enjoy. http://crackle.com/c/Screenbites/Snatch_Greedy_As_A_Pig/1613843

The hype, the hype…feel the hype man!! Aaaarrgg!! Sorry guys, I’m all out of mana after casting a lot of “protect-from-hype” spells. :) Seems like modesty is a rare commodity at Bethesda. The marketitis hypethemus virus hit, has caused a lot of victims down there. So after the...

The environs have always been great, it’s Beth’s trump card and the one that counts most for them. But as experience from Oblivion/Fallout 3 era has proven, it’s like driving a Ferrari car (environs) with a Trabant engine inside (gameplay/character development) and a hacked speedometer that...

Agreed. Though, my line of thought -to clarify a bit- was that is common practice for companies in general to start a series of sales with an initial product acting as basis and then continue adding value and having profit from the little add-ons, which sometimes happen to be essential for the...

I’d daresay, you’ve seen that with your own eyes? ;) Yeah, I know that it can happen, literally speaking, and it feels pain just to imagine, hence the metaphor. @Dionysus This is common practice for most of companies. It’s like buying a printer in a reasonable price and pay another one...

Apart from being lead designer, Emil was also the lead writer in FO3. Also the -horrible- ending was the result of a discussion idea between Todd and Emil. IDK but something tells me that Beth’s marketing plan plays similar to EA’s "THE SIMS". They’re gonna milk the cash-cow called...
