    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    Live trailer was meh.... So now that The Lord of the Rings ripping off isn't cool, it's now A Song of Ice and Fire?

    Signature Weapon

    I love my courier so much, I'm now using the concept for our Shadowrun game. I just took the concept of a energy weapons cowboy. The Impedant Cowboy as he is known. He specializes in the Holorifle. The pump action sort of reminds me of a lever action. Probably the most "western" weapon I can...

    Fallout: New Vegas DLC Round-up Review

    I never found Dead Money to be challenging, as so much as an attempt to be challenging. It wasn't exactly easy, but all the challenges set up really stood out and seemed to serve as padding and filler rather than a natural series of problems for the player to observe and overcome...

    The Easter Egg Thread

    The Grand Theft Auto series has quite a few good ones. I would list videos, but there are just too many to see. [spoiler:fbc5ad14a6]The ones I can think of include shooting the moon in Vice City, which caused it to grow and expand. There are also the creepy empty cars that spawn in the San...

    RAGE: The Thread

    Agree. Maybe I'm in a lonely boat here, but after Doom and Doom II, well... I don't think I've really played a decent Id game. Quake was alright, Quake 2, meh. And Quake 3? Made obsolete by the much superior Unreal Tournament. Doom III was a cash-in and Quake 4 did what Doom III should of been...

    The New Vegas soundtrack (not the radio songs)

    While I would still prefer a Mark Morgan-esque soundtrack, Zur's take on NV wasn't all bad. Still miles better than the shit he has done for Fallout 3. Good lord I hate that soundtrack. One of the worst in all of gaming history. Maybe I'm just odd, but it's not really the shoddy writing or...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    My friend's favorite game is Oblivion. When I mentioned that this video killed my hype for the game, he exploded with pointless arguments and petty whining. He didn't even give me a chance to explain my reasoning behind my statement. Point is, Beth fans are extremely whiny. It's not that I...

    Can anybody recommend a 'Fallout style' book?

    I know it's pretty typical but...The Road by Cormac McCarthy. It simply is an amazing book. The writing style is a bit odd though but it wasn't really a challenge to overlook. While I haven't read many of them yet, Deathlands is a good pulp alternative to more serious novels. Kinda like Star...

    FO3 Megamod?

    This. http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=7000 And I would recommend this mod for better music that's much more fitting for the game. Add in a bit of Morgan's work too for that throwback feel. With all of these combined and you got yourself a playable game of Fallout 3...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    I will say that the music is pretty freaking good. It's both moody with a little bit of throwback to Morrowind. (just watch the last video) A complete 180 when compared to the crap that was played in the background of Fallout 3. But then again Inon Zur was generic music anyway. As for Jermey...

    Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

    http://www.bethblog.com/index.php/2011/09/12/20-minutes-of-skyrim-action/ For those who are curious to see a possible hint to the future of the Fallout series. (Ok, I'm making it more dramatic than it is.) It's basically a prettier Oblivion. But seriously? Did we expect more? I find it odd...

    What is your favorite Deus Ex game

    It's kind of hard to be a hidden threat when you already know who they are. ;) I'm rather glad it played down the conspiracy elements. We know who the Illuminati are and seeing another conspiracy "who is really the bad guy" storyline would of made the game seem like it was trying hard to be...

    Rage or Dungeon Siege 3

    Decades later and I'm still playing Doom religiously. Rage looks awesome. I hope it maintains that standard of longevity. DSIII was junk. Glad there was a demo of it because I was really set on buying it. In the end, it felt too restrictive for a H&S RPG game. I'll stick with Sacred 2 for...

    Syndicate rebooted as (surprise) an FPS

    Ugh. Conflicting emotions here. I love Starbreeze. Their work with Riddick and especially The Darkness was very very impressive. I'd wager that The Darkness is probably on my top three list of best console only games for this generation. It tells a great emotional story and it's moody as...

    Dead Island

    Tragic, I was really hoping for a TRUE survival horror game. Too many zombie games today are about co-op and body counts. I'm still waiting for that true zombie game where the focus isn't on killing. Where every encounter with a zombie has to be carefully gauged, forcing the player to ask...

    Anyone here watch Falling Skies?

    I found the first few episodes entertaining, but towards the end it just danced around this major plot concept and never really went forward. This show had some major filler issues and getting rid of the doctor in such a brief moment was a mistake. Past that point the show went sorta down hill...

    FO3 Megamod?

    Regardless of who likes New Vegas or not, it proves just how strong the Fallout IP can be, if done correctly. Yes, at it's core it's retro post apocalypse and this fact should never be forgotten. Yet as a whole, Fallout can juggle so many different subject matters and styles that it really adds...

    Fallout D20 - is fan-made on-line RPG, based on NWN2

    I am still quite interested in this project too. But as of now there seems to be no way to actually form a coherent community. I see no forums, no discussions-nothing. I see a few links on the blog but that's about it. You say this project suffers from a lack of player interest, maybe you should...

    Bring Back Map Travel

    Perhaps something like in Daggerfall, just not to that large, random extent. Maybe hand craft towns and places of interest. You COULD walk from one end to the other by foot but it would be the biggest time waster of all. A good example of this would be Arcanum. Keep the method of fast travel...

    J.E. Sawyer's five hard lessons on RPG design

    I have somewhat opposite opinions on this matter. While yes, it is annoying when your try a repetitive action only to fail a high percentage of the time (given if your skill in said action is low), the entire purpose of skill increasing in an RPG is to give you and your character the sense of...
