For real this time, though it seems off by a day. Episode 3 brings us some location art we've already seen, and "bite sized Fallout factoids" strewn across seven pages. We are told about Marcus, The Road, factions from the first two games (like "New California Republicans"), Ron Perlman, pimping your spouse being one of "the very best bits of the Fallout games". Nothing new for us, but may spark the interest of some curious soul somewhere.

It’s this sort of bold personality that will have appealed to Bethesda in the first place. Known for creating huge, technically stunning environments and filling them with a near-endless stream of quests and activities, the company clearly knows how to create an action-packed realm.

I peed on myself.
;)

JFC. How the hell can people actually believe this crap?

:roll:
 
I think it is the times Pope Viper.

Over the years I have noticed a gradual decline of demands of gamers other than that it should be 'graphical pleasing' and 'fun'.

Fun usually details that you can start killing things as soon as possible, rather than being bored with all kinds of choices and decisions.

Action-packed? A lot like Fallout, where I would alt-tab out mid-battle to goggle something. I remember a lot of realms, too. Those god damn monarchs had me killing mubcrabs everywhere. Err.. wait?

Word nit-picking is fun.
 
If Bethesda and the gaming "journalists" get their way, they'll totally invent a revisionist history of what Fallout 1 and 2 were, and make every effort to declare Bethesda's the "Real Fallout".

I'm seeing this trend more and more.

Of course they will, and not just Bethesda, it is happening in various media.

Bethesda is making Fallout as it is meant to be!

They are hoping we will disappear into the cracks so they can tell people "This is what fallout is supposed to be like!!" but they'll be waiting a long time :p
Ahah, do you even think they'll survive us? You are out of your mind. Fans of good hardcore games live much longer than fans of stupid mindless real time action gmaes.
 
So, uh, Gameplayer's week of Fallout basically consisted of 3 articles that were already published in a magazine months ago and a bunch of screenshots given to many sites by Bethesda?

...

Colour me confused.
 
Wow, they hyped some hype and then they didn't even deliver the hype. My "day 3" newspost is sort of retroactively vindicated.
