I have come to the realization that I cannot convince many of you of Fallout 3's brilliance, nor can you make me believe otherwise, and I am perfectly okay with that. I respect our differences, and I don't want to spark any more petty quarrels. Let's shake on that, shall we?

Well it's your 60 bucks to waste. I've played through the whole game and it is far from brilliant. You would do yourself a favor if you looked up the spoilers section on the forum and find out exactly how dumb the story actually is and why you'd be wasting 20 hours of your life.

Problem is, it's not just a bad game (if indeed "Fallout 3" is as bad as I suspect it is) - it's a bad game that's needlessly damaging the reputation of one of the great classics. It's a game that never should have been made in the first place. Not like this.

Smells like bullshit. The ESRB and FCC can both go and fuck themselves.
This, on top of everything else I've read about Beth on here the last month or so, brings me to the conclusion that they are just...weird. I swear half of them are running around swinging plastic swords at each other, talking through puppets, wearing glittery mage robes and working on computers made of wood. There's so many oddball things attached to them, most of the time I'm just like, "wha-?" 
I'm OK with you kikomiko. It's only your ultimate undying happiness that scares me.

it sounds a little crazy of me
but i've seen a lot of ingame videos recently
both official and user made
AND THEY SUCK and people say they suck
if only there was a way to pull all user generated and official stuff off
-
seriously i think it has more to do with the lack of proper warning for violence and content, (maybe they should add stupidity) anyway ... and i think the depiction of Washington DC aint helpin either...

I just caught this, did you really expect to come on here and do that?
Pretty naive, guy.

Having seen almost every post Kikomiko has made, I'm inclined to agree.
Now, on topic, I don't really get this. The official videos didn't have the proper rating on them so they need to be pulled down?
Then they risk the game being "Not rated"Kashrlyyk said:
Ironicaly from what I have heard what happend is aparently a somewhat mildly pornographic trailer for an upcomeing game was released (with the current give us "your" "birthday" lockout, for all the good that did) Congress heard about it, and Russ Feingolds office (hes the chair of the Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights and Property Rights) sent a nice notice to the ESRB and also to the MPAA that they did not consider the current rules and guidelines sufficent to prevent unitended veiwing of games and trailers over the internet by persons for whom said content was not intended to be viewed, and that they would apreceate seeing new guidlines in place before the next hearing before the subcomittee.

This is questionable and can go either way but they're probably safe on this.
They did this in interviews but didn't see it in any trailers. Partial failure.
Que? That's not vague to the point of uselessness though Oblivion did fail this.
The violence? That said, it's a mature game so...
This is arguable and I'd say that their interviews do this but their regular trailers are fine.
I'm guessing it's like the MPAA in that you don't have to get your product rated but that most stores won't (or rather didn't used to) sell unrated products.Kashrlyyk said:
I'm completely at a loss for why this is happening and I'm doubtful that it's the ESRB's doing.

I just want to throw this out there, PC World is WRONG about the trailers. There ARE trailers that are R rated for movies. They are called red-banner trailers, and are pretty rare. They tend to play before R rated movies.
The only one I've seen is one for Beowulf movie. And it wasn't much differant from the normal trailer, just a little more gore.
