With just 8.47MB to spare, you can create a whole post-apocalyptic world on your PC. Bethesda has followed through on its not-quite promises from Penny Arcade Expo and released the aptly-titled Garden of Eden Creation Kit, a set of mod tools. According to the description, everything in the game can be modified, so feel free to go LittleBigWasteland, and please, let us know how it goes.

Nope, gonna be PC only, can't modify the files in the PS3 version I imagine because the files are too large, and the 360 is more closed than a Mac.
Before anyone else points it out, yes I was talking out of my rearend about why it won't come for PS3, but its what I believe.

After sadly hearing The Witcher no longer being PC exclusive coming to PS3/360 and being a much better version than the PC version, entirely new engine, combat system, exclusive DLC, etc, at least this helps me out a bit, us having the GECK exclusively. Let us PC owners have some nice exclusive things too since so many PC games come over to consoles. :)

I like how a ton of console games are coming to the PC too. Everybody gets to play games!

Well, I don't really mind PC games coming over to consoles as the PC has and will keep receiving many console ports in return (Lost Planet, Mass Effect, Gears of War, Devil May Cry 4, etc). However, if the console version receives any extras, I would like them to come over to the PC version as well, that's all I ask for.

but you pc users already have a much better oblivion, especially with the use of console (something the 360 could have easily handled) and the custom patches that prevent weird graphics from candles and such. i just thought that maybe i would be loved too.

I don't see how that makes you 'deserving' of anything extra. It's your choice to buy a gaming rig, after all.

Good point Ben. Then all I would like is that if any former PC exclusives on consoles get extras, that they hopefully can make their way to the original PC version as well, though its doubtful as most developers don't want to take the trouble porting back these new assets. There's just way more console gamers than PC gamers, I just don't want PC gaming to die or go into a vegetative state....

The Witcher won't be a better game on the consoles Chin-Poh. It will either be awkward or dumbed down like most RPGs that have been designed for the PC.

Yeah, PC's are more expensive than consoles. Hang on - are you reading this on a PC/Mac now? And did you have to buy it?
Think of a gaming PC as being your work/internet computer plus a console rolled into one, and then the price starts to make sense.

Game makers don't release extras because one type of user deserves it more than another. I find that line of thinking to be bizarre. They release according to market forces as well as the viability of the extra being distributed/used. PC users don't deserve anything special just for using a PC - Neither do console users.
Give it a rest with acting like PC users are being treated like the red headed stepchild.

LittleBigWasteland? What the hell. I know its stupid of me, but whenever "user created content" gets linked to LittleBigPlanet I have thoughts.
I don't like thinking, especially not on this topic. It reminds me of the time I got bitten over who got to play Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, which also happened to have level and character customization.
Gah, to heck with my quasi-retarded comment: Time to start thinking about putting a random skate park directly in the center of DC. Tony Hawk's Pro Mutant, here I ponder.

Someone needs to start working on a post-Judgment Day Terminator mod.

has anybody made a mod that increases weapon damage? Or maybe makes ammo more scarce? Those were my main issues with the game

I wanna see a mod where you get to play RIGHT before the bombs fell. That would be sick. The army is rounding up people, you get sent to a vault after a few years. Then you become overseer. That might be fun, eh?

I'm confused, do you think that is too long or too short?
The game isn't meant to be a travel simulator anyway, the joy is not in getting to a destination... but what you did on the way.

Just after you speak to Dr Li, she tells you to go all the way to the other side of the map. Instant traveled to Megaton and after about 10 minutes of traveling to the new location, the game glitched, I died and had to walk all the way from Megaton again. I was pissed off.

I'm talking about when you couldn't use the fast travel, obviously. Some missions actually required you to walk (mainly in the beginning)
or even when you fast travel to a metro station next to the location and you wander around for hours trying to find a glitch in the rocks to jump over.
I still played the game and loved it, but hated it at the same time
I call it Banjo-Kazooie:-Nuts-&-Bolts-syndrome

I enjoy both Oblivion and Fallout 3, but Fallout 3 could be called TES V: Fallout any day.
Fable 2 won GOTY on G4? What a fucking joke. That game is fine, but not GOTY material at all. Tales of Vesperia and Lost Odyssey are better RPGs already. I'm not even gonna get started here.

Alot of PC gamers are crybabies, if this came out on console's they'd all QQ about it anyway. "Epic doesn't love us, screw you epic i'll never buy your games again!"
"Oh yay Bethesda gave us something exclusive, yay, screw you console guys!"
Cry cry more.

Its more of the fact that the pc community built tons of developers reputations. Infinity Ward, Epic, both these companies have just basically turned their back on the communities that made them what they are today. If Call of Duty wouldn't have beat out Medal of Honor back in the day, it probably would not be around anymore. The reason other than a great game? Cause of the immense community around it.
Plus this is MOD tools. Got a developers kit? How about Maya or 3Ds Max or Zbrush on your xbox? Didn't think so.

No i'm not saying this should be released on Console, I'm just saying alot of PC gamers are some serious complainers. If consoles get some thing unique they bitch about it and say they deserve it too, and if PC's get something unique it's a god send lawlz to the console gamers.

Google helps with that. Winge is a misspelling of whinge, which basically means to whine.
