Yeah, right. Next you'll tell me the same thing about the encounter with the TARDIS, and how Fallout isn't really a part of Doctor Who canon.

Why? So that he asks somewhere that is even more biased, but instead of being told how bad Fallout 3 is, he can be told how abso-fucking-lutely amazing it is, and how it's the best game ever, and how Bethesda can be compared to fucking Shakespeare or da Vinci, or their lovechild? NMA will...

I actually liked what they did with Tranquility Lane. It was one of the better written parts of the entire game. Honestly, if the main storyline had ended after that, I wouldn't hate the game as much as I do. Sure, it would have made a short story, but it would be infinitely better than the crap...

I'm sure not all of the reviews were bought out, but I can't believe that someone would give Fallout 3 a perfect score if they a) weren't paid to do it, b) actually played the game, or c) weren't entirely ignorant. Fallout 3 is a decent game, but it's far from perfect. There're bugs all over...

Well, I quite like the idea. Kind of makes me think that this is what would happen if Firefly met Fallout. But there are a couple of questions and comments I have. Why? Why would they use resources to send ships back to Earth? It'd make a lot more sense, given that there'd be limited space on...

I'm sorry to say that that is complete bullshit. The first person perspective brings out the exact opposite emotions for the veteran fans. Fallout was designed with isometric turn-based gameplay in mind. Fans of the first two games know this. Changing to first person might be good for a spin off...

A game where you walk outside the vault and instantly drop dead from radiation? Isn't that pretty much what happened in Fallout 3?

I wouldn't say that a shallow first person shooter is "exactly what the franchise needed". Sure, Fallout 3 is better than BOS, but that doesn't mean it's a great game. It's an alright game if you can see through all the flaws, but it's a horrible Fallout game. It's a horrible RPG. It's a vaguely...

Saying that Fallout isn't dead because we have Fallout 3 is like saying that a Super Mutant is the same person as before they were dipped. Fallout 3 is reminiscent of the originals, but it's a horrible bastardisation of the franchise. Fallout as we knew and loved is dead.

There's a huge number of tins of Pork 'n' Beans lying around that you can eat. Now, tinned food keeps for a long time, but when the tin has rusted, and the food has been exposed to the elements for so long, it should not be edible. Simple fact is that the food shouldn't be edible, but more...

I can't actually describe to you how happy it makes me that you pointed me towards these titles. I still have some reservations, but they have nothing to do with the graphics. I, for one, am so damn tired of playing first person games. There's too many of them, and I don't particularly find...

Well, no. I think Fallout 4 will have rubbish writing like Fallout 3. But I'm a cynical guy, and I realise that I always think the worst of people until they prove otherwise. Logically, Bethesda should have realised from the practically universal agreement that their writing team sucks, and...

I really hope that everyone from Bethesda has long since been scared away from here, and no one will read that. Let's face it, that plot is almost as good as the current Fallout 3 one, and I really don't want them getting ideas.

Sure, it is a wasteland. A wasteland that has had people living on it for 200 years. Scavenging food would have been more efficient when the bombs had just fallen, but that food would quickly run out, so farms should have been developed to sustain the population that survives. But in 200 years...

I would prefer if the stupid giant robot was removed altogether. Or at least never actually functioned. I'm not a big fan of giant robots in general, simply because they almost always just seem out of place. Liberty Prime was basically the thing that killed Fallout 3 for me. Sure, there was a...
