I strongly disagree with people using "arguments" like:
-these are just a few pictures
-let's wait for it to come out and criticise
When companies leak some photos, they usually make a careful selection, so the mutant was there purposefully.
If we always wait, and never criticise...
Herve Caen's wisdom is/was limitless. He reminds me of colonel Cargill from Catch-22
"Colonel Cargill was a forceful, ruddy man. Before the war, he had been an alert, hard-hitting, aggressive marketing executive. He was a very bad marketing executive. Colonel Cargill was so bad a marketing...
Stating your opinion in a civilized way is like being an asshole? That's new. I always thought, that this attitude led to the the current state, where you can only praise games, music, movies etc. no matter how shitty they are.
I beg to differ.
There are a few things which people seem to forget and which make this debate absolutely unnecessary.
To address the "choice" between EA and Bethesda:
Both companies represent the capitalist model of a game-developing/game-publishing anomaly. About Bethesda, I won't say a word, we...
Now we have seen it all. Why would they honor rpg traditions or take fans into account when they have the necessery skills and resources to make a game for themselves?
I just don't understand why is this considered news. NMA usually thoroughly covers games with apocalyptic features.
Ok, Fallout 3 had to be covered because of that, but that it was developed by Bethesda - which was a sorry incident - why should we care for anything other than that?
I salute you! Those are really well taken photos. Anyways, I have a -somewhat- stupid question: If radiation levels are so low that you can enter the "zone", how come it is not repopulated? Hope you took some radaway :)
There is now way of Herve Caen not making the deadline. He knows how much money went into this, and everything is money about this guy. He gets up with money, he has money for breakfast, he shits money in his toilet and he was dreaming about money while destroying Interplay.
Really? This is how they decided on the story? Well, congratulations. I mean this is how important this project was? It clearly shows that they did not even bother to delve into Fallout canon.
Hey Howard you have a young kid ? Cool, me too. Hey, why don't we use that to serve as the story of...
You are right of course about your doubts. Also, keep in mind that Jason D. Anderson has just left the team and that really means something :cry:
About the latter part, I used to have dreams about becoming a millionaire, travelling to the USA and then lock up all the original staff in a...
Of course he was only courteous, afterall never forget that he was one of the guys who made it all happen. He is one of the guys we are here for......
An artist of his caliber obviously sees everything that is to see about Fallout 3, that in the game industry it is not beneficial to criticise...
How soaked this presentation is with money. Simply, all the points her raises are connected with money in some way or other.
Just think, how different would it be to go back in time and make Black Isle do something similar after Fallout 1. The atmosphere, the sense of intelligence, the sense...
I could understand that NMA posted pictures and news of the upcoming Fallot 3, because people had some hopes back then.
Now that Fallout 3 is out, and it has been proven that neither the game, nor it's DLCs are Fallout, what is the point in posting these pictures?
If Fallout BOS was far...
