Maybe one day it will sink in. Maybe the moderators will try and foster reasonable discussion on both sides. Maybe you'll stop asking me to "prove it". Probably not. It's obvious that Bethesda knew Interplay wouldn't ever finish that game. It should have been obvious to everyone...

You have a very strange idea of what proof is. Most people enjoyed the shit out of FO3 with some exceptions, it sold millions of copies, almost every critic loved it. That's as good of proof as you're going to get. Hell, I have been here longer than you think. Before FO3 went on sale people...

I have made the point but people keep dancing around it and trying to refute the facts I used to back up my point. As a refresher: I most definitely did not insinuate that. Just means that PC-primary development is not gonna happen in any Fallout for a long damn time. And that should...

Ok, ready for it? Obsidian will make a new Fallout and most of the reception at NMA will be negative, blaming Bethesda for imposing all kinds of limitations on them and forcing them to use things like VATS - almost against their will, or by threatening to pull the license or whatever you guys...

A fair number might come over from NWN2, but ask any random 20 console gamers who made KOTOR2, and you may get the right answer one or two times. The rest either won't know or will guess Bioware or LucasArts. I'm sure the PC RPG crowd would do better, of course. The problem is that...

Microcosm. I like Stardock too and wish them big successes, and they can at least be comforted by the fact that had they added copy protection to Demigod, the pirates would merely have to copy a cracked .exe over before playing, while legit gamers would have to deal with bullshit activation...

Oops! I was wrong. It wasn't 82%. It was 88%. It's like you guys are so desperate to disagree with me that you'll actually try and say that there isn't more piracy on the PC than on consoles. Actually, that's exactly what you're doing. As far as Crytek focusing on consoles...

Oh, I got it. Crystal clear. Heh.

There are several reasons so many big-name PC developers have moved over to primarily console development (Epic, id, Raven, Crytek, and yes, Bethesda to name a few off the top of my head, and likely Obsidian soon): The games sell better, development is easier for closed systems, there are...

82% of people playing Demigod on the day it launched pirated the game. No piracy numbers in the current console generation even remotely stack up to that. Do any of you guys actually know anything about console modding on current-gen systems?

I don't think "invalidated" is the right word. "Made irrelevant" is probably better. Here we go with the assertion that only someone with a short attention span could like a game like Fallout 3. Frankly, it's goddamn sad that the biggest Fallout fansite on the internet is like this. I...

On the consoles that Fallout 3 runs on?

Pretty sure this can be summed up with the phrase "a drop in the bucket". And they will, because Bethesda wouldn't greenlight a project that didn't hit a wide audience. And the only way to do that right now is with console gaming. Well, unless the New Vegas team is working out of their...

NMA feeds these sites pageviews as well.

That's part of it, but moreso, one that a majority of the game's players and critics like. It'd sell well enough for them to stay in business - maybe. But at some point they will get (or have gotten) sick of catering to a narrow, increasingly marginalized audience and move onto bigger and...

This game got a ton of press for being one of the first Mature-rated and truly hardcore games on the DS. Nintendo announced it at E3 last year with some big fanfare. It had some surprisingly positive reviews. It sold 89,000 copies. Sometimes the intended audience doesn't quite match the...

It was a combo thing with Capcom. A lot of the costs were shared. Hate on DRM because it's annoying to re-activate after a Windows reinstall (or a crash... or buying a new PC... or installing on a laptop) and be forced to call a publisher and beg for more activations, not because it takes up...

Uncanny: Ah yes, Titanic is an objectively shitty movie and here let me show you something that undoubtedly proves i... wait. That's impossible because it's an OPINION. I think you've done a good job letting your experience of past Fallout games ruin the rest for you. It'll likely ruin...

No I don't. As long as it is alright for people to make personal compliments about the developers it should be perfectly acceptable that people who criticize them as well. That's not what I'm talking about, and you know it. I meant personal insults. I've seen TV commercials and the game...

Because saying things like "Fallout 3 sucks" is an opinion, and the best thing you have to back it up with is more opinions. "Millions of people bought Fallout 3 and relatively very few people who wrote or talked about it didn't like it" is fact. And that fact is what I can use to back up the...
