WHY THE FUCK

HAS THIS FORUM

NOT GONE CRAZY OVER THIS GAME

I was very much expecting a hell of a lot more replies about the game. but no, we've got a popular thread on GOW2, how extremely innovative.

Anonyman! 11-12-2008 05:24 AM

Becuz the ending sucks.

Leto 11-12-2008 11:07 AM

Very very true. The ending is gay in every respect, regardless of karma.

I've got like 2 more achievements then it's Fallout 3 almost done for me.

Anonyman! 11-17-2008 06:28 PM

I still stubbornly prefer the originals. Fallout 3 isn't a proper fallout game, but it is a damn good game.

Leto 11-17-2008 08:51 PM

It's an Oblivion game. if you're an Oblivion gamer, it'll be right up your arse as it's the same shit different skin.

have all the achievements now and I kind of have nothing to do.

Anonyman! 11-18-2008 02:04 PM

The sad thing is, it's better than oblivion.

Leto 11-18-2008 11:08 PM

It is indeed, in all aspects but one: longevity. I literally have done everything in Fallout 3, bar finding the Firelancer via random occurance or whatever. hopefully there'll be some DLC for the game soon enough.

If you're playing the console versions, have you noticed the Downloads menu option only comes up as soon as you finish the game? Like, only then. If you turn your console off and on, it'll be grey until you finish the game and go back to the menu again.

Surprisingly when i played fallout 3 i was pleased with it. of course it has a few changes from the original but im always open for a lil change and when thay release the sdk for fallout 3 trust me it will be remade by some crazy fan boy =p. also i was all like WOOT when i found dog meat in the scrap yards i almost shot him in the face thinking he was a wild savage dog. but yeah.. .thats just me

Leto 11-19-2008 12:19 PM

About the Construction set: Fallout 3's game files are .esm and .bsa, esm standing for Elder Scrolls map. both of those files types have been used in the two previous Elder Scrolls Construction Kits. has anyone actually just tried opening them in the Oblivion CS? I mean come on. it can't be that hard when they're the exact same file type in the exact same game engine.slightymodifiedforyousmartcunts

Kimon 11-19-2008 05:04 PM

Wow, so apparently Fallout 3 is amazing and I haven't noticed.

Um, so. Should I get Fallout or Fable II? I'm torn. I love British quirkiness and such, but apparently dystopia is pretty great too. Hmm.

Leto 11-19-2008 08:17 PM

Fallout 3. Fable is fun, but very short in comparison. If you liked Oblivion (MAYBE) then it's pretty much same shit different skin ie guns. It's very fun. I'd say purchase Fallout and hire Fable, as they are both quite fun, but Fable II definitely falls shorter.

both of the games, however, have sucky endings.

AlienMagi 11-21-2008 07:19 AM

The game rulez totally.

I thought you died. I prayed that you died.


Yeah, I like both, have finished both, both are going on the shelf as good but not overtly replayable.

Leto 11-21-2008 05:30 PM

quite.

Now come on Deus Ex 3 and the unofficially announced Elder Scrolls V.

Havoc 11-22-2008 12:32 PM

Playing it right now and I can't help but love it. Finally a game that doesn't point out every single detail of what you need to do and which you don't play all the way through in a mere 20 hours.

Down side of course is, I just stepped on a landmine which blew off my arm and leg. Gotta love this game.

Oh god yes. Morrowind with oblivion fighting and graphics (save for nasty faces). CAN I GET A FUCK YESH

(Also cool beast races.)

Leto 11-22-2008 03:04 PM

YOU GET A FUCK YEAH

Oh God my girlfriend started a game this morning, because I said you can dress yourself and get a house of which you can furnish. At every point she would say "Where do I go? What am I supposed to be doing? How do you shoot?". a little frustrating, but overall amusing.

Hey Anonyman!, check this shit out. Looks like Morrowind in the future with guns, not Oblivion.

Jezus Christ my girlfriend does that all the time with the easiest games. Sometimes I think she's just too lazy to spend a few seconds looking for it.

Ugh female gamers...

Leto 11-22-2008 08:09 PM

OH NO THERE'S AN ENEMY I will proceed to shoot at the floor and get frustrated when I'm killed.

Aw but we love em. you know it's a woman gamer when someone's favourite game is Muppet Race Mania on the PS1.

Being a female gamer is like a guy going to a grocery store, loudly proclaiming that they can cook as good as a woman, and then go on to brag about he can make raman noodles.

That does look interesting. Researching now.
EDIT: The game does look awesome. However, the developers are Eastern European and it shows through the grammar of the website. Hopefully, the game will have a better translation.

You know, I actually got my GF to try Battlefield 2142 a while back. I was playing it all the time and she was getting annoyed by it at first but later on she wanted to give it a try.
I gave her a short training and then we both went into a live server with real players. She was just running around somewhere in the middle of nowhere, 60.000 miles from the closest fight, loudly complaining about how there was no-one there XD. She ended up walking around unharmed for half an hour. You can guess what happened when she finally got to one of the flags...

She hasn't touched the game since XD

Wings of Fire 11-23-2008 07:35 AM

My girlfriend is actually better at most games than me, thus destroying my last vestiges of male dominance. I live in mortal fear of her casual gaming skills.

Bitch.

Leto 11-23-2008 11:28 AM

My girlfriend doesn't like Fable 2. I mean what the fuck. You can clothe yourself, redecorate your house, get a haircut and dye your clothes whatever colours you want. Why she would choose Fallout 3 over Fable 2 is beyond my male comprehension.

Indeed this is a problem. Did you check the forums? The release date was supposed to be next month. And apparently it is too big so it's 2 games now. It's kind of a Duke Nukem Forever situation. BUT HOPE WILL PREVAIL

edit: holy shit I didn't know this game had sex scenes

Regardless of her skill level, I still find it impressive that you taught a tiger to hold and use a game controller.

I'm sorry. I just thought it had been too long since someone made a tiger joke.

Havoc 11-24-2008 09:56 PM

I actually agree so thanks for keeping the record updated. :)

CyberWolf 11-25-2008 07:51 AM

I'm not entirely sure if I can say whether or not Bethesda ruined it at all, simply because I hadn't even heard of Fallout before Fallout 3, but I loved Oblivion, and critics seem to agree that Bethesda did an awesome job making it, as do I.

Leto 11-25-2008 11:02 AM

well, if one hasn't even heard of, let alone played the original Fallout titles, they are in no position to argue that Bethesda 'ruined' anything

mudling 11-25-2008 11:40 AM

Hmmm, well, I've enjoyed the game alot, expecially within the vaults, but it appears that it has Oblivion syndrome in that it gives you too much alterfication and responcibility, it's a video game, I don't want to constantly repair my weapons, and sell all of my useless shit, and seeing them and your appearance properly (is there a way to see your face in game without using the VATS?) would be nice aswell.
I mean, I don't know about you, but a post apocloyptic life simulator would be quite boring.
That being said, I'm enjoying it quite a bit, small things like entering a supermarket with raiders clambering over the shelves searching for you is awesome.
It's amazing to see how vaired conversations can go, wow, and the impact afterwards, you realy have to watch your words in some cases.
New expansions sound great aswell, but I've got a tonne to do in this game first.
