I'm excited. I've loved Oblivion and can't wait to see what Bathesda is going do next. I love the fact that Fallout 3 is based in a post-apocalyptic modern times.
OMG, it's coming I tell you!
I can't believe you support Bethesda in it's blasphemy. This was the best series of all times and they are turning it into Oblivion with guns.
Play the originals, and DONT BUY FALLOUT 3. At least inform yourselves of how the first two games were about and how they played.
Bull*****, Starcraft II should've been the cover
Fallout its a gay game!!!!!!not fun!!!!
RommeITJ you are a *****... Oblivion is so good its not funny, actually morrowind was good too!!!
Fallout 1 and 2 were ***** 2D games so i hope they turn it into Oblivion with Guns!!!
What makes 2D so bad? Why if a game is turned into 3D its automatically going to be "Oblivion with guns?"
r35 - yes, turning one series into a clone of another game series is exactly what we want. When I goto the game store, all I want is 50 different games that all have different titles but are all the same game.
Woo-hoo! Now we get the amazing fallout has an fps, where we can shoot at stuff and not have to wait for other npcs and monsters to move, and we can totally ignore talking out way through fights, and we don't have to have a story that is somehwat deep and compelling! I am so excited! It'll be just like Oblivious! With towers that spawn mutants and ghouls, and wolves and bears that level with you! So great!
Bethesda is completely ruining the Fallout series. Looking forward to FO3? Meh. If Bethesda "reinvents the fallout series" I'll shoot myself in the left foot.
Any scans available yet somewhere? Please? :D
For the one who is saying Oblivion was a bad game.... uh that's just you. I don't know the last time you checked the ratings but this game is WAY up there with many awards. So the fact that you talk down on it makes you look retarded. Your trying to be different, right? Do you feel cool to talk down on a obviously good game?
Bethesda has a proven background and wouldn't trust any other game developer with this license. I've played both Fallout 1 and 2, I think rumor is Bethesda is using the Oblivion 3d engine, that's it. It will still be a 3rd person view. So please give me legit proof that this will be "Oblivion with guns"? Actually, never mind, I guess thats a rhetorical question you obviously don't know what your talking about and I'm waisting my time arguing it. Just know that you are a moron, no one likes you, go home, stop posting ***** you can't back up. Thanks.
I've been playing the Fallout series since Wasteland, and I've been playing games by Bethesda since Arena, so I figure that makes me enough of an authority to comment.
Yes, Bethesda does some things well. They're graphically interesting, unconventional, they make really, really *BIG* games, and the content of things you can actually *do* in the game is both broad and deep.
A "deep and compelling story"? Nope, they don't have a lot of that. A sense of humor? again, a miss. And, I don't know, the games themselves...after a while I always lose my sense of purpose, or even interest. Not because their aren't interesting things to *do*, but because I start to not care about the goals the game sets, or the goals I set myself. That's the fault of the games, because all those "interesting things to do" after a while become repetitive, even bland, because they fail to compel me.
They *should* compel me-they have the capacity *to* compel me, but they don't, they fail, and that's Bethesda's fault.
Maybe Bethesda will do a good job, I'm not sure, but my uncertainty about them being able to make Fallout 3 is based on the past history of the games this company has actually made, compared to the Fallout series.
I think it's possible for them to do it, I think they have the necessary elements, in greater or lesser proportion, to add up to a good Fallout game. The question is whether or not they have the vision and drive to create a newer and better Fallout that incorporates the things Bethesda does best, while remaining true to the thing that made Fallout special, rather than forcing Fallout to conform to the Bethesda ways of doing things, and in the process making something that lies to you when it says it's 'Fallout 3'.
If people are interested in Bethesda "blowing the top off" of the Fallout series, that's fine-and hopefully, in a few years, you'll start to want *real* games, with interest beyond what your eyes see and your hands do.
Personally, when something is labled "Fallout", that's what I want, just like when I open a box of Cheerios, I expect Cheerios, not frosted corn flakes in the shape of little smiley faces, and colorful marshmallow O's.
The reason the Fallout series was always great is how it grabbed your mind. Hopefully, Bethesda can manage that, but it'll be somewhat of a stretch for them.
I personally really liked fallout and fallout 2. Bethesda is a good company, I just hope that the real time combat system transfers smoothly if done right it could be awesome, or if done wrong it could be awful. As long as fallout retains much of its integrity and comedic value it will be great. and as long as I can blow some mutants heads off I will be happy. I don't particuraly care for the new power armor, anyone else?
