Yeah, I can't explain it but I wasn't really impressed either. I was interested in it, but I wasn't hyped up for it or anything. I'm still interested though.

He hates Half-Life 2 and GTA IV, yet he loves Tenchu Z. His comment bodes pretty well for Fallout 3. AAA!

RPG of the forever.

Can't wait to see more gameplay. When is it supposed to demo'd again? On either SpikeTV or G4 sometime this week...

Sorry, but that title will never belong to a game other than Fallout 2.

Any thread about Fallout is basically a license for the hardcore PC fanboys to spew the same cliched talking points they've been spewing out for the past year about the game. The concept of not playing it if they don't like the idea apparently hasn't occured to them.

Because, you know, Oblivion was the worst game EVER and Bethesda totally SUCK!!!111!!! Nothing will ever be as good as the original 2, they were the perfect games and this has nothing to do with nostalgia of course!!!111!!!

the game IMO looks way to easy..i mean from a long time FPS fan..its looks like i can just blow though this game in a week..but in Fallout 1 and 2 the things you upgraded on you charater effected what happened in combat..but now it just seem like i can grab a pistol and headshot everyone around me with little effort..

dont get me wrong the game looks good..it just looks easy..i mean mini nuke launcher FTL.. not only that but if it was a nuclear war how did he get the mini nuclear bombs..and the mini nuclear missle launcher..alot of this game dosent make sence...but i think some will love it and some will hate it..i for one right now hate it..it seems like a way to easy game geared towards casuals who dont know anything about a basic rpg but just wants to shoot things and make them blow up..

I'm not playing it because I don't like what I've seen. :|

I wish I could though. They're trashing a great series. Just like they did with Elderr Scrolls.

Opinions are like, well, you know.

I really dug Oblivion, and I've been play the ES since Arena. WAY more ES fans (really though they weren't so much ES fans as they were hardcore Daggerfall fans) complained about Morrowind. The same thing happened with Oblivion and Morrowind fans.

There's nothing stopping Interplay from making a Fallout style game again, they don't need the "Fallout" name. PC fans didn't seem to whine NEARLY as much 9actually it was more like not at all) about the truly bad Fallout Tactics and Brotherhood of Steel spinoffs. Bethesda is just an "easy" target these days for bored PC fanboys upset about losing exclusive titles, or titles that would've been exclusive to the PC had they been made 8 years ago.

Erm, what was wrong with Fallout Tactics? :roll:, targeting "Pc fanboys" ....

While its going to be a great game, its going to be a horrible "FALLOUT" game. Vandalvideo

Yes, because Tactics and BoS were AWESOME!

The franchise, as well as the company that created it, were completely dead in the water before Bethesda bought the IP. That money allowed them to continue to breathe.

There is nothing stopping Interplay from making another turn based and isometric RPG while not using the Fallout name. It is just a name, get over it.

Didn't say there was anything "wrong" with it, it just wasn't anywhere close to being as good as the others.

How come it's always the Oblivion/Beth fanboys who say they've been playing since Arena?

They don't have the money nor the means to start on a new franchise. They **** up their company by making half-assed Fallout games for the console kiddies.

lol I love when people run out of ideas and make those random "yeah well you're a 12 years old kiddie" comments on the internets. You know you've truly won a debate when you hear those words come from the opponent's mouth. :)

So here's reality.

Eother Bethesda bought the rights to Fallout and made a Fallout game that was a drastic departure from the classic Fallout formula and is more oriented to the Bethesda style of game design OR the made a game similar in atmosphere without the Fallout name, and Interplay and the Fallout IP died off completely.

That's reality. So, what would you choose?

PC fans don't realize that Fallout WAS DEAD.If you don't like the idea of Bethesda developing a Bethesda style action RPG bearing the Fallout name then continue to treat it as it was before they bought the IP and treat the franchise as dead.

Again, there's nothing stopping Interplay from developing a Fallout-like game if there is a demand for one. What's in a name? Are you that concerned about a meaningless name? And the only thing that is allowing them to develop ANYTHING is the money from Bethesda's purchase.

Yes, because Tactics and BoS were AWESOME!RuprechtMonkey

You fail hard on this one.:lol:

Get over yourself. Beth is **** up this once great franchise, you can't defend them just because they helped Interplay. :roll:

Well except this thing called money. Right now, they're building upon existing franchises to increase profit so that one day they can create new franchises. Right now they can't.

I'd rather Fallout to remain dead.

VoodooGamer

You really need to stop assuming everyone who disagrees with you despises the PC and has never gamed on one.

I used to be a hardcore PC fan (before these forums even existed.) I still dig the PC, I'm just not an unreasonable fanboy, so that may seem alien to you.

Played those games to death, the original Half Life (and was playing HL against others online before stuff like CS existed) and Deus Ex are my favorite games of all time.

I remember pouring copious amounts of time into the original Arena. The joy of playing now forgotten games like Blood 2, Shogo, and being wowed by Unreal's visuals the first time I played it.

I most certainly played the original 2. Loved them. I consider them classics, just as I do games like BG2 and PT.

I just find these arguments against the games ridiculous.

The franchise and the company behind it WAS DEAD, COMPLETELY DEAD as was the company behind it.

Bethesda are "ruining" nothing. It was dead, you can't kill something that's dead. So, you're saying they revived it, and you're worried they'll re-kill it.

Then ignore it, and in your world it will (and you'll save yourself a headache.)
