    GamePro Fallout 3 preview

    Based on what? The setting? The combat system sounds downright stupid to me. Maybe like Tabula Rasa with pause? It's beyond description and it makes no sense. Is it an FPS? Is it an RPG? To me it sounds like the worst parts of each.

    Emil Pagiarulo doesn't say anything on VATS and PA issue

    When I played Fallout 1 and 2, people in Power Armor died to a hail of bullets just the same as everyone else. On top of that I don't know if any of the people in PA used melee, maybe one or two. Personally I would think that if the armor enhances your leg strength then it would increase your...

    Emil Pagiarulo doesn't say anything on VATS and PA issue

    Emil was super fast jumping on this grenade. So basically, power armor is for melee characters and makes you feel like a knight! Except that it's not just metal, Emil. It's called Power Armor because it's POWERED. Meaning it doesn't slow you down or restrict movement but rather it enhances...

    Glowing Grounds

    Very awesome. I love the spears. I think Ant Hunting is my favorite but it's hard to choose.

    I don't think it's healthy not to fear a nuclear holocaust. Nuff said

    Toss a rock, hit a Fallout 3 preview

    Programming soil erosion seems like a huge waste of time. You won't get anything that you can't get by looking at some pictures of some hills and then modeling the damn things.

    Toss a rock, hit a Fallout 3 preview

    This wave of previews leaves me wondering if there are any honest people in game journalism. I find it hard to believe that nobody previewing this game has played a good RPG. I mean any PC gamer over 25 would have to remember when depth in a game wasn't just interactive tutorials and detailed...

    Germans get new screenshots from Fallout 3

    I still don't understand how it is that Washington D.C. has so many ruins intact in the city area. It looks more like pictures of post WW2 industrial ruins than like nuclear bombs were dropped on it. There should be nothing left, but some of those buildings seem to have survived pretty much...

    Fallout fan film

    I really liked the music in it. The whole "bandits" thing is kind of generic, but it seemed to me that they attempted to hint at turn based combat. If so that is pretty bitchin' also.

    Fallout 3's "200 endings"

    200 is just devolution in my opinion. To me this new news clarified the speculation about whether it was permutations, and it is. 200 permutations is not spectacular in any way. It's marketing to convince console jockeys that Bethesda is taking gaming in a new direction. I mean in one sense...

    Fallout 3's "200 endings"

    If anybody saw the IGN story for this they actually sound amazed that there are 200 endings and they say: "Bethesda is trying to make the ending (and the game does have a definite ending) as tailored to your journey as it possibly can be." Go Go PR machine!

    Letting Go of Fallout Editorial

    Answer few questions for me. Would you have preferred Oblivion have multiple paths instead of being linear? Require multiple characters to see everything? Allow you to kill whoever you want? Allow you to influence and change the story and have multiple endings? Because I sure would...

    Letting Go of Fallout Editorial

    I don't see how anyone rational could think that beating the same hellrift over and over, and then doing the same repetitive quests for a dozen different factions, can possibly compare to the scripted beauty that is the Half Life 2 series. If this guy really thinks Oblivion is the best game...

    [BoS writing contest] Always Interested in Feedback

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I'm not one to make excuses, but the word limit and the fact that I found out about the contest less than a week beforehand definitely were not in my favor. There are a few things that I wanted to convey with the story and unfortunately I do not believe they...

    [BoS writing contest] Always Interested in Feedback

    Go East, Young Man! By: Matt Olsen Wasteland. It’s the same in Washington D.C. as anywhere else; desolate, dusty, and unlivable. I trekked the endless wastes between the Pacific and the Atlantic, and I can tell you, it all looks exactly the same. Some of my Brothers believed that if we...

    I love your work. There are things that can be criticized for not being "authentic," but personally I believe you have a unique and interesting take on the fallout universe. I wouldn't change the style at all.

    VATS is not RTwP

    This isn't the first time that a game developer has claimed that bullet time in his game is a new innovation.

    Emil is back

    This article pretty much explains why I couldn't get into Oblivion. I just never realized that they openly decided to make linear quests in order to make their "huge" gameworld "manageable." The reality of Oblivion, though, was just a mess. If you can't make decisions about quests...
