    How to Build on Fallout 3

    I think the issue with the immersion in video games lies in the basic misunderstanding of a requirement for realistic visuals. Of course the visual immersion in recent games like Fallout 3, Mass Effect, etc. may create the feeling of being sucked into the gameworld. However, the main problem the...

    The Next Level Interviews Bethesdas Emil Pagliarulo

    The point of bussiness is to earn money first and foremost. Even the point of making a quality product is to have a good selling point from a bussiness point of view. A bussiness having an obligation to its market to produce quality products is a concern of bussiness ethics. And I'm not stating...

    The Next Level Interviews Bethesdas Emil Pagliarulo

    Is that a bad thing? I mean come on, bussiness-wise there couldn't be anything better than keeping their coffers full. Quality product? Arguable. But a success? It certainly is one. Therefore they have all the rights to call it a quality product. Because in their case, yes, millions of copies...

    DLC - What is it good for?

    Seriously that is the thing that bugs me. Why should I pay for a mod that could easily be done by community for free? But when branded with the developer's name it suddenly defaults to professional. And talking of professional I've played far more professional mods than the vanilla games these...

    DLC - What is it good for?

    What is DLC other than mods made by the developers themselves? And considering that this DLC milking is largely used by Bioware and Bethesda, both ironically supply the end-user with their toolsets, demanding money for such mods seems utter bullshit. Adding new weapons or armor? Haven't...

    Mothership Zeta released

    I'm well beyond caring about Fallout 3 now but "ITZ A LORE RAEP" screams over at Bethsoft forums really shows the weight of this situation. Alienating a fanbase with a sequel is one thing. But alienating a fanbase with a DLC??? That's a new low. Judging by what I read and what I've seen...

    Fallout 3 Operation: Anchorage reviews

    I actually always wondered whether a Daredevil video game like that is possible. A game where your only guidance will be sound or (if possible) smell. That would be a true innovation for gaming.

    A critic doesn't like Fallout 3 that much

    Actually you guys are missing the point. He actually feared the "Attack of the Beth-fanboys" in making his decision... I miss the days when we were the ones they were fearing. :(

    Van Buren in IGN's top cancelled games

    I remember some modders trying to build Van Buren from that tech-demo and design notes... Any news about it?

    Jeff Gardiner and Anchorage screenshots

    Am I the only one thinking of the "Dark Brotherhood Assassins" circa Morrowind:Tribunal by looking at this picture?

    Are games art? Well, Fallout 3 is getting there

    This discussion of whether video games are art was around for a long time now and to no avail... Anyway, definition of art widened with the introduction of cinema as an art-form to include platforms containing multiple art-forms. Defining the value of a platform like this as art needs each...

    V13 tidbit

    I never was in favor of MMORPGs but sometimes you see the wasted potential in them... The usual problem with the MMOs is that they always reward combat over everything else. UO for instance was a good idea at it's core on this aspect but you always needed combat skills, at least to an extent...

    Fallout 2 makes top adult games list

    Funny thing is those that are new to FO will now think that we're complaining about FO3 not being witty enough compared to the 1/2 and what's worse a new argument can pop up, which is FO3 being too intelligent that even we don't understand it... Fuck...

    Fallout 3 screenshots galore

    These screens are more OK compared to the ones seen before but still they are plain shit IMO... And isn't it funny that all the time complaining about "immershun" they still come out with immersion breakers such as lack of shadows and annoyingly HUGE HUD? I was thinking they'd go for an approach...

    Fallout's 10th anniversary: 4 Leonard Boyarsky concept arts

    Making it a real time FPS with cars that explode in "NUKULAR KLOUDZORZ". But they couldn't ninja the technology from the other developers of their time. :P
