I can't believe it's not STALKER. Oh, wait. Yes I can! For the longest time, I thought Fallout 3 was a really great game: I thought it was unique and interesting, even though I played Fallout 1 and Fallout 2. Two days ago I purchased STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl. Then I realized: Fallout 3...

Personally, I thought the halucination sequence was a high point of Point Lookout. While the Main Quest should have been longer and they should have given us some new articles of clothing that were actually interesting. Many of the quests were entertaining, and it really helped to chant, "This...

I would imagine that going to Navarro and acquiring Adv. Power Armor at a low level would mess up statistical balancing, but then it's technically an exploit, so one should expect that in the first place, right?

Indeed. You should also look at the outcome of war, and the ebb and flow of victories. With my limited knowledge of the history of the world, I would say that all wars are caused because one group desires something another group has. Then, both sides win and lose battles until one group takes it...

I am made speechless by how perfectly that summarizes Todd Howard's career. Well done.

You forgot the Acannonical Bullcrap Level (Tranquility Lane).

1. Absolutely no clean pre-war clothing. I want to see modular clothes (like Morrowind), all of which have the actual wasteland feel to them. 2. Balanced power. Unlike Fallout 3, I want to have to struggle for survival for more than the first five levels. Scavenging for ammo, having my guns...

The problem here is that real-life survival is completely different from videogame survival. Actual guns take a lot more effort, time, and spare parts to repair. Treating wounds and injuries is far more complex that just using a stimpak. The list goes on and on. On the other hand, we would have...

I just looked over each piece of Fallout 3 Official content and came to a most depressing conclusion that directly proves that Bethesda's writers are pedantic and massively idiotic. Operation: Anchorage! = ICE LEVEL!!! The Pitt = FIRE LEVEL!!! Point Lookout = SWAMP LEVEL!!! Mothership...

I really don't have a problem if you tried and it didn't work. That shows at the very least open-mindedness. It's just too bad that open-mindedness is rarely rewarded by Bethesda. Also, it appears that, just maybe, Rockstar is a better developer than Bethesda? It's good to see that at least one...

New Perk Added: Siddhartha's Enlightenment! Your life has come full cicrle, and now you should go wander into the forest and die. On the bright side, your Karma is set to its highest point possible automatically. On the down side, you're a boring, boring person. Anyhow, I think that the...

Recently, I checked the Fallout wikia site, and noticed that J E Sawyer was a part of the Van Buren project. Since he is the team leader, I thought that the game might resemble a more traditional Fallout role-playing game. This gave me great hope for the game, and great hope that we might...

For this post, I thought it would be interesting to see which characters from Fallout 1 or Fallout 2 you really hated. If you want to include Fallout: Tactics ones as well, feel free, but I chose the first two games because they we can all agree that the characters there are (mostly) well...

No; I am not trying to troll. I wrote my original post as intelligently, logically, and politely as possible. All I intended was to start a civil debate, and see if I could get a calm discussion going in which people of opposing viewpoints could express their ideas in a polite manner. If I...

1. Improvements are changes. 2. Stupid people won't buy intelligent games. 3. What about the little people? Small time coders/mapmakers/story writers need money. While I'm sure Todd and Pete are living very comfortably, do you really think that, for example Gary Noonan, one of the game's...

You know what the sad thing is? Fallout 3 is still above a lot of gamers out there today. If you heard about how many idiots couldn't get out of Vault 101... but that is exactly why they had to dumb it down. If Bethesda tried to make a game that appeals to us, they would lose about a hundred...

Well. I just read post in the news section about Fallout 3: Point Lookout, along with the numerous comments by forum-goers that came after it. I couldn't help but notice the oppressive sense of negativity emanating from the posts made by the "veterans" of the forum. Time and time again, it...

By asking these questions, I thought it was assumed that I knew what I was talking about and therefore had already formulated an opinion on the matter. You claimed that my questions were uninsightful and dull, complaining that I offered no context or commentary to accompany my accusations...

Sophistry is a type of philosophy, you know. Oi! Catch up on your classical politics. I allude not to the triumvir Lepidus, but the CONSUL Lepidus, who founded one of the greatest and most used roads in Italy (in fact, modern Italians still use the road that mid 100's BC Lepidus founded...

For the mentally starved, a buffet of food for thought (humor me with that pun) PHILOSOPHICAL QUESTIONS: I. Can anarchy exist without chaos? II. Have humans developed technology before developing the ability to use it wisely? III. "The one thing that I know is that I know nothing."...
