Sometimes I think 51% or more of Gamespot users weren't even born when Fallout came out... and I know what that implies about the user base here

Some people here didn't know what starcraft was until the sequel was announced. They're probably either young, very casual, or new to videogames.

I'm not required to know what it is, which system(s) it's on, how much hype it's getting, how "good" the graphics are (or not), what the control scheme is, how great it's percieved to be, or care about it.

I kind of enjoy watching 73.26% of the Fallout fanbase write off this game just b/c it might change. Not that they know any more than any one else, just that if it's not close to what it was back oh close to ten years ago, than it will be not nearly as good.

I think that's because 75% of the GS userbase wasn't even BORN when that game came out. Nevertheless, the fact this gem, along with the System Shock series, was not known to them is indeed sad....

You guys seem to think that half the people here also know what other great games like System Shock, Deus Ex, Syndicate etc. I mean there are people here that don't even know what the Zerg are.

That means that every single RPG that has been released and will be released will be or is inferior to Fallout and Fallout 2. I am referring to videogames, I don't know anything about D&D but that might be your thing.

I was about to go play some Starcraft... now I don't have a clue what I'm going to play. Maybe I should play Fallout instead.

Actually, I should play Sanitarium! That's a pretty good RPG.

Hmm.  Just looked up Sanitarium as I've never seen a review for it.  I would've given it an 8.5.

Yeah why try to break barriers, or generate progress. I mean why did we even go into 3D it's not like 2D was broken, right?
