    Timeslip Fallout 1 and 2 engine tweaks

    This is amazing timing. Just reinstalled Fallout 1 a few minutes ago, came to the site to get Killap's Fallout 1 patch and read the front page while I was doing it. Great stuff, I can't wait to see what Timeslip can do with Bethesda's Fallout 3. But for now, the classic awaits! With scroll...

    Bioshock community Q&A site opened

    For an error like this you'd think he'd be the newly fired PR guy. Months ago Irrational made a big deal about how the interfaces are completely platform independent, with Bioshock on the PC mimicking System Shock 2's, as opposed to a gamepad-oriented mess even when having the keyboard/mouse at...

    Wasteland scans galore

    This is pretty awesome. I meant to grab the issue with the Wasteland review today after reading the last issue of CGW last night, and kgreene managed to one-up my desire and save me time in the process. Thanks man!

    Shadowrun

    There's a Shadowrun game being made for the Xbox 360 as we speak. There's only been a couple of leaks so far, so no one has any idea what kind of game it's going to be. We should be seeing something about it at E3 this year, though. If it's good, I'm buying a 360. If it's not, I'll just...

    Fallout 0: new mod

    That story page has me looking forward to this mod, for sure. It could be like that Day of the Dead movie where the scientists lured the specimens into a holding area, for subsequent capture. It worked well for catching zombies, probably works well for those critters.

    New poll

    This should win handily. I would gladly give up the isometric perspective and go to first person if they managed to keep the feel of the world right. Changing the feel of the game's interface is something that can be adjusted to easily, but fucking with the setting...no, no. Even Fallout...

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Five

    I don't think I can get burned out on this premise. Walking around Pripyat, going up to the sarcophagus...it makes me giggle if I think about it too much. I'm a nuclear disaster junky :( These articles do say that the game is now feature-complete, though, so for the next 6 months it should...

    Strange game. The only winning move is not to play.

    Haven't been disappointed with an Introversion game yet, though they've had a short-lived interest on my computer. This is the kind of game I can play indefinitely, however. I played a ton of Mutually Assured Destruction, a kind of stupid game that's a lot of fun multiplayer, even fun against...

    City Ruins: Tribute to Fallout

    Agreed. Hell, if Beth's Fallout could put a player into that image's environment, it would be a giant step closer to being truly Fallouty.

    Any stuff related to unofficial F2 patches goes in here!

    Oh come on, people! Just Google it for crying out loud. ~19.9 thousand for "bad of shape", ~25.6 thousand for "bad a shape". I'm not going to sift through all those results to find out where everyone is from that says each variation, but I'd say it's equally prevalent in all English speaking...

    Any stuff related to unofficial F2 patches goes in here!

    Killap, you fixed my most hated old bug (the radscorp limbs not doing anything) and are about to fix the most annoying new 'bug', the world map going a million miles an hour. Being able to slow down the map without slowing down the whole game, as in a CPU slow-downer, and without needing to use...

    Any stuff related to unofficial F2 patches goes in here!

    Your perfection-seeking desires are appreciated. It's kind of amazing how many bugs were left in Fallout 2, and reassuring that they're finally being eliminated once and for all.

    Ohhhh, the world map. All of a sudden the loss of this game feels even more real. CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEN. Opens fine in Word 2003.

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Delayed

    Supposedly the lead designer is confused by this. I just want to walk up next to the sarcophagus in Chernobyl. Come on, is that so much to ask :( A demo, anything, I NEED to see that sarcophagus, even if it's a digital representation. Pictures/video don't do it justice, but a 3D render...oh...

    Not sure how you got the ones you have gotten, but damn if I haven't enjoyed them. Playing the game would have been the best way to absorb this material, but this way we get to see how the developers were thinking. It's a great experience on its own.

    Hahah, I think Interplay is with you on that one. Isn't BoS widely regarded as the title that sunk the company? What's awesome is that the Brotherhood of Steel was my favorite part of the Fallout universe, even the bizarro version in Tactics, and I STILL have no idea what BoS looks like in...

    I've finalled nailed down the feeling I get whenever I start reading these. It's almost the same feeling I get when reading Shadowrun sourcebooks, almost exactly the same. Knowing you have this badass story material and knowing that with the right implementation it would be some of the most...

    Reservation doc

    This is an incredible bit of Fallout history, here. Reading it makes me realize that this would have been the first game I would have purchased two copies of... hah, I always thought that was a foolish way of generating support for a game, but I would have done it just to have a sealed copy to...

    Definitely no S.T.A.L.K.E.R. in 2005

    Just as long as this doesn't turn into a Boiling Point debacle. There's another game with a lot of potential, maybe salvageable, but definitely a shoddy release. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. probably has more potential, so more room for screwing up in a big way. Needless to say, I'm guessing 1.5 to 2...

    Fallout Yurop updated

    I am REALLY looking forward to this mod. That probably means it'll never come out :( That custom art with the retro-scifi moonlander is damn impressive. Er...wait, hackers, what? Why the hell do idiots do that crap? Ruining the work of people who do this stuff in their free time... ugh...
