    Mad Max 4 is back on

    Mel will not star in it. Hugh Jackman is Australian, and a quality charismatic actor to boot, but I keep thinking of his bright singing in musicals rather than the more gritty work, such as Wolverine. He could pull it off and knows the director well, although he might also be tied up with...

    Fallout 3 dev diary

    Good stuff. I can only hope that the same high level of attention to detail and research goes into other areas, such as the writing and quest design. It is odd that presumably the same people can come up with such ugly power armour, putting setting considerations aside.

    Mad Max 4 is back on

    So you have the same, competent director, but assume that it will suck because other movies out at the moment are bad, yet if the original Fallout devs started to design a new RPG, I doubt you would say that it will suck just because most other recent RPGs do. At worst, I would expect Mad Max 4...

    Fallout 3 misses the Joystick

    Integrating the sci-fi angle into normal gameplay, such as combat via the targeting system, menus and environment interaction, look likely to hurt AC in my opinion, although they appear to be toning those elements down a bit.

    The Baseball Thread

    Hey, don't forget the Canadians. Although yes, it would be nice to have some say, exclusively Japanese and Latin American teams in something with 'World' in the title. Cricket is a better game.

    Serenity

    I have the Fruity Oaty Bar commentary and segment on the Serenity Double Disc Edition. It also has an interesting QA session with Sydney fans, including some people I know. One of the fans amusingly commented on a coincidental link between Mr Universe, and Universal Studios, enabling the film...

    No Playable Demo of Fallout 3

    To be expected. Even if they made a demo specially tailored for more traditional fans to get good PR (I was encouraged by the FoT demo), there would still probably be too much criticism for such an investment, especially in light of past work, so it would be too risky, a waste of money, when...

    Fallout 3 on Game Scoop! Podcast

    It is sad to lose the world map, but expected, as they have chosen to concentrate on a smaller area. The compromise you mention shihonage would require that much extra work, although it would be a great improvement. Doesn't Arcanum work like that? Pete's description of travel systems/maps...

    Mad Max 4 is back on

    George Miller is great, so it should be excellent. Finding a new Max will be difficult I expect.

    Fallout 3 Official Site goes multi-lingual

    No, it's because they can't yet find translators and ensure that they aren't terrorist bloom-immune Communists who might vandalise their site without their knowledge. They are working closely with the Department of Homeland Security though, so it will be any time now.

    ZeniMax Media Receives $300 Million Investment

    Hmm, I wonder if talent might be sucked into the MMO division due to investment pressure?

    Fallout 3 preview on Gamebanshee

    Good writing. Hmm, so not a wobble mechanic/shoot where you aim, but a randomisation element after firing? That also reminds me, was a jet engine used to open a gate in Megaton? Jet fuel for a passenger liner would be rare as RHS during a world war. With tongue firmly in cheek.

    Serenity

    Definitely worth the time, but maybe not buying them if you can borrow them cheaply and don't rewatch things often, as it doesn't have the long life of the film (as I doubt you will become much of a fan as you are asking us for advice after watching the film). Firefly is excellent and far...
