    Where can I buy Fallout 1 or 2?

    Anybody who's interested, there's a new website opening in September called Good Old Games (it's in closed beta now) owned by the CD Projekt (The Witcher guys). They will be selling Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics for six bucks each (or so the plan is). http://www.gog.com/ No DRM, works with...

    Isn't it a tad unfair..

    SOME of the hate is crazy, otherwise, I agree with it. Fallout was an iso TB game. Bethesda made a FPS game out of it, regardless of the fan's wishes, which is what they have done with every franchise they have had. Oblivion was a fun game, to be sure, but it was also very far removed from...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    Aw, thanks. Internets rule. Yeah, as I said in a PM, I think I will stop posting and just lurk, because I'm a little (or a lot) unqualified to post here. I don't really know a whole lot about the franchise, but as I'm discovering it now, I think this is a good site to bookmark. Sorry for...

    Why the attachment to overhead/top-down isometric POV?

    Do you know, exactly, what they wanted? Are there interviews or something? I'd probably believe you guys if you cited sources. That would probably wrap this all up really, really fast.

    Don't Buy the Hype

    I have to agree with most of that post (though I will admit that I still enjoy Morrowind). Very thoughtful and interesting perspective, and lengthy, too. It really sheds light on Bethesda. A lot of light, in fact. What's my view on Fallout 3? I'm going to pretend that it isn't Fallout, and...

    Why the attachment to overhead/top-down isometric POV?

    They go where the money is, which is what everyone is forced to do in this economy as of late. That is exactly in the genre "FPS 2.0" such as Bioshockj and Crysis, and not with Fallout. Unfortunate, but true. Which is taste, "What in the series should be in the new one?" You have people who...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    So you're saying you want me to stick around? Do you miss me? Awww, that's so sweet. What you must know is there is a difference between being beat and getting your questions answered. I got the latter, because I see that you probably can't understand what I'm talking about. Sorry, but...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    "Mess around with" being, in this case, "bring out and make even more a parody of," then yes, that's what I want. I think it's funny and enjoyable. Anyway, thanks to all who posted, I realize that yes, I was wrong, and that this forum is a lost cause for me at this point, because I am facing...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    Well, I like FPS games, so there you go. I like action and tactical online gameplay with some friends I know and enjoy playing with. I also like Fallout and RPG games. I'll buy it if I have a computer for it. Even if it isn't a Fallout game true and true, I still think that game game itself...

    Why the attachment to overhead/top-down isometric POV?

    Quick thing here: that's where isometric games went...MMO games. Of course most of them are pretty boring and level grinding, but whatever. Graphics intensive? That depends on the developer. Morrowind runs like crap on my computer, and yet KOTOR is a smooth sail. They were designed...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    Basically. I usually play games in huge chunks, but I can't concentrate on that game long enough. I do keep it around, though, for when I do enjoy it (like last night). Other games I play right through (like beating Half-Life in one sitting, stuff like that). I'll play the game for five hours...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    I'll quote myself earlier, if it will make much of a difference to you all. "This is not me thinking I'm better than you, this is me holding my opinion up to yours and perhaps getting more out of Fallout as I'm playing it again (which I am enjoying much more than the first time I tried it)."...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    I'm talking about the beginning of the game, at character selection (or any time, really, when there is a 2D character shown). Everybody's kind of scary looking. And I did read parts of the posts before shrugging them off, to the other people, whoever you are. I'm just not bothering to reply...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    And! (Because I was interrupted in my edits) "Not another "me-too" game that everyone forgets about within a few days to weeks in anticipation of "The Next Big Thing"." That's why I play Introversion games. ;) Darwinia, DEFCON, and Uplink were fantastic. Not RPG's of course, but good...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    Nah, I'm a real person. ;) I am not trying to stir anything up, if you had bothered to read my second post. Too busy quoting everything, I guess. That's my evil plot, see. I lure everyone in with "attacks" directed to their personalities, then while their busy clacking away I throw in debates...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    Well, I'm not surprised by the pointless flaming, of course, that was to be expected. And I said I was NOT of the gaming press, BTW. I am also not from Something Awful, either. I want to discuss. Perhaps that will not happen, and yet I can still laugh at the people who don't try. First off, I...

    Fallout 3: Why the hate?

    Don't bother reading this, it's just a big post of crap. ;) Fallout is pretty good, I'm playing it again. Following things: -Sorry if you wasted your time on my post quoting everything... -I enjoyed the discussion I had with several of you. -I regret posting this thread. I was wrong...
