Actually four versions, if the German release was indeed censored.

I think I would have gone with "Flame On!". Your pun was good, though.

Is someone forcing you guys to read these reviews? If you don't want to read 'em, don't read 'em. Whining about it on the forums does nothing but waste bandwidth. Personally, I enjoy the reviews. Even though most of them suck, they're good for a laugh every now and then. Can't say I'll be...

Thanks to the previews/reviews from NMAers, I think I've made up my mind to either rent this game or buy it when the price gets cut in half a year or so from now. If I never played it, it wouldn't be the first Fallout game I've totally skipped (didn't play that crappy console spin-off)...

Far be it from me to tell people what they should or shouldn't be offended by, but anyone who might have been offended could just, you know, not buy the game. This seems like a preemptive knee-jerk on Bethesda's part. And after all, it's just a video game. Too bad for the Japanese gamers who...

I'm also one of those Fallout fans who enjoyed Tactics, if for nothing else than the combat. I'm a big fan of turn-based RPGs/strategy games. In fact, one of the main reasons I enjoy JRPGs is that so many of them still stubbornly stick with TB combat, even though so many modern gamers and...

Ok then. Thanks for your contribution, Georgia. "Calling Fallout 3 'Oblivion with guns' is not fair and is simply untrue. So here's a list of ways that Fallout 3 is similar to Oblivion." Huh?

Hey Autoduel, did you enjoy Oblivion? As someone who attempted to play Oblivion several times before becoming utterly bored within the first couple of hours, I'm just trying to gauge how many fans of Fallout 3 were also fans of Bethesda's previous effort. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to...

Oh snap! Screw Attack must have missed the memo. Well, no more free trips abroad and exclusive content for them.

Funny how useful something can be when it's nonexistent.

Would some of you PLEASE stop fucking saying "obviously you haven't played Clear Sky"? BN said that FO3 was the buggiest game he's played all year. The fact that CS is a bug-ridden mess doesn't change his statement, and no, BN hasn't played CS, which he mentioned already. "Well, [insert game]...

Well, unlike some of you, I found Vince's write-up pretty enjoyable. I didn't read past part 3, as I don't want to spoil the game too much, but what I did read was entertaining and fairly informative. Plus, it's a nice change of pace to read a preview/review not written by a slobbering Bethesda...

Just to play Devil's Advocate, I'm sure the response to that argument would be "why would you want to play the role of a child-killer?". Thing is, people who throw around the "why do you want to kill children in the first place" argument are dangerously close in their thinking to the simpletons...

Sad to see so many otherwise intelligent-sounding people flaming the author of this piece over at Gamasutra. Very few, if any of them could satisfactorily answer the question of "what's the difference between killing an adult and a child in a video game?". Most replies that disagreed with the...

Yeah, good on Bethesda for inventing this feature. Too bad the archaic turn-based combat of the old games didn't do something similar. Oh wait....

The Metroid Prime games managed to capture the classic look and feel of the 2D Metroid games almost perfectly (particularly the first MP), so if Fallout 3 has really been that successful, then I'd be impressed. I haven't played the game, but from all of the gameplay that I've seen and...

Just a guess, but their ratings are probably styled after the Japanese method of in-game performance grading. S is perfect, D or E is the worst, as someone else alluded to. Don't ask me why "S" is better than "A". Maybe it stands for "Super"?

I had pretty much the same experience when I loaned Fallout to a friend. The friend in question's favorite games are Halo, GRAW, KOTOR, Oblivion, and so forth. He got stuck in the rat caves and complained about running out of ammo (wtf?) and the turn-based combat. In his words, turn-based combat...

Not only that, but why the fuck should I have to register online to play an offline, single-player game? DRM like this punishes only the paying customers and doesn't deter piracy. It's one of the reasons I rarely buy PC games anymore (with regards to Fallout 3, I'm probably not going to buy...

How 'bout you fuck off instead? I'm saying I don't really give a shit about the easter eggs one way or another, in case that wasn't clear from my previous post. I just found Pete's response of "NO FUCKING WAY, IT'S NOT CANON" amusing, that's all.
