    Critters you'd like to see, Pre-mutation. (pic thread)

    I'm not much on illustration, so I figured it'd be better to go with the pre-mutation versions. If there's a creature you think would make a good mutant for a future fallout game, put up a picture and maybe a link to some info about it, or just your reason for wanting to see it in the game...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    I wish Enemy of the State had someone other than Will Smif in it as the lead. Would have been less...douche-y.

    Power armor (from 2007)

    Definitely. They've got one for lifting patients in hospitals, a decidedly non-optimal location for forklifts. :wink: That said, the forklift is a pretty efficient tool. I'd be surprised to see exoskeletons actually replacing them at tasks they currently do well...

    Do you want to see player vehicles make a comeback?

    I'd like to, if it can be something other than a poorly planned appendage. NV and FO3 would have been ridiculous with vehicles in them, simply because the maps were too small for that sort of travel. I can imagine some cool/startling encounters you could have while speeding across the...

    Your "WTF" moments in NV playthroughs

    Spending about half an hour at low level figuring out how to kite the Cazadores away from Bewer's Beer Bootlegging was a little wtf for me, but satisfying once I accomplished it. Then looting the place and walking back out in the respawned swarm of them...into instant aggro mode. WTF for...

    Power armor (from 2007)

    From '09 http://spectrum.ieee.org/robotics/medical-robots/exoskeletons-are-on-the-march From '11 control systems This sort of thing I can totally see becoming more common in medical applications, but not so much in combat roles.

    Post your best joke!

    One of those jokes that kids appreciate, but are hard to render in text: What do you call a fish with no eyes? Fsh Also, What do American beer and making love in a canoe have in common? [spoiler:027d21609b]They're both fucking close to water.[/spoiler:027d21609b]

    Rate the above song and post your own.

    8/10 do like DK Personally, I think these guys should have done the soundtrack for FO:NV http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etQqAXbRBJs

    Will Fallout 3 be remembered?

    Be remembered? of course. Be played? by some. Be a 'classic' or whatever? No, except in niche fanboi land. This is the internet. Nothing really gets forgotten completely.

    Where will the next Fallout take place?

    Combine Harvester Outta Power? You see: Your sister. She looks: Almost sexy. Also, back on topic, I do hope there's more weather in the next one. The lack of weather in games bugs me, (I thought Gears of war handled rain pretty well) but they shouldn't go overboard with it either...

    Fallout 4 beginning

    It should start with a cinematic BoS vertibird crash caused by a rain of frogs. (directed by Micheal Bay) No survivors. After that there should be a game that doesn't have the BoS in it at all, unless it's a scene where you pick over their corpses and your companions make snide remarks...

    What game was this?

    Yup. Bonus points for knowing it wasn't Angband. (yet) :) (which is still in development, BTW. I find it comforting to know that a game made in 1983 still has a rabid fan base and more variants than you can shake a stick at.) EDIT: The game Yoshi posted is S.C.OUT. That was obscure...

    Plot-holes and logical inconsistencies of FO3?

    Mm. Yeah, good point. I guess they'd have to blow it open with a mini nuke. Which would totally make sense, since the previous direct hit from a nuke weakened it so much. Kind of like when someone asks you to open a jar of pickles, and then claims that they 'loosened it up for you'.

    Your video game ideas

    I would port this to XBLA: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WK1fl8S-ztM And yes, I'm old enough to have played the hell out of it when I was a kid.

    Where will the next Fallout take place?

    Great Lakes region - If Bethesda can pull themselves together long enough to invent a water-mob that isn't a giant crab or a fucking mirelurk, anyway. Maybe giant carnivorous zebra mussles? It'd give the invasion biologists a reason to play video games instead of killing animals for a living...
