JHTM

ive owned and played (to death) all the fallout games released for the PC - 1,2 and Tactics. All were AWESOME and as you all agree, the 50's humor, OTT death annimations and awesome weapons (mini-gun railgun from tactics anyone ???). One thing i was pissed about when seeing Fallout 3 was it was to be played in 1st person - personally i think this is a travisty and SOOOOO glad they implemented a TRUE 3rd person view - i never played oblivion in 1st person either - i used the crosshair mod and the game was much better. for me it aint a roleplaying game unless yo u can see your avatar and SEE the loot ON your character. if i find new armor i want to SEE it as well as have the stats. I agree the videos look like the character floats but i like many will definitely not play in this view. In regards to the combat looking easy, we have to remember that the devs wanted to show us the bloody mess perk and a demo wouldnt have been good showing the character MISS MISS MISS. That character was levelled and when you saw his inventory it vindicated the aforementioned; he had a laser rifle, minigun, plasma rifle, fat man, pistol, Rock-it-launcher with teddy bears COOL !!!!

lastly i think Bethesda will and has nailed the 'fallout' universe, the fallout boy, music, art deco, OTT weapons and deaths etc - theyre all in there - they even used the same icons in the pip boy for some of the narcotics - awesome !!!, moreover they simply cannot afford NOT to nail the 'fallout' theme since the fallout following is HUGE and CULT-LIKE

i believe that the orig fallout games 1, 2 and tactics were simply one set of armor - I THINK anyhow, i agree though it would be cool.

Personally i cant wait for this game - who like me remembers the time the Fallout 1 demo came out for the PC and you shot someone for the first time with the sub machine gun and you got the awesome execution annimation ??? i mean come on how cool was that !!!

the key to this games success is how it translates into the 1st and 3rd person environment and how well the turn based - esque VATS systems turns out. Personally i cant see why anyone would want to play this game in FPS - i find that viewpoint old hat now and wouldnt do Fallout's art justice - i mean we all want to see our avatar in his shiny vault 101 boiler suit right ?? ;)

hopefully bethesda deliver a quality game like oblivion - my money is on them delivering and delivering big !! then again i am majorly biased towards the fallout IP

i think that looks awesome !!!

i wonder if you'll have a 'Transfer' system to buy star players. coaches etc

in the board game can you have other races playing for your team? like an Orc star player for the humans? - sounds stupid but stranger things have happened - Damon to Yankees, Figo to Barcelona etc

this game is total garbage and really missed the chance. I rented it from blockbuster and completed the game to get an EASY 800 or so points

i completed the entire game with one punch - hold RB+RT and press A - dont even bother to worry bout stamina u win every fight hands down.

this game had promise but was ultimately just garbage

i agree the game looks promising - AND its coming to PC - always a bonus :-P

just got my 100% and key to the city last night - why cant they release details of the DLC :)

only joking just soapboxing - i was hoping they would release a graphic fix - stop the 'darkness' of the game without turning the world bright / orange.

for me MP doesnt sub for an awesome SP - doesnt matter if SP went on for 100 hrs - still too short :-P

i think that looks pretty promising - battlefront games were always pretty cool !! i guess for online games theres gunna be hardly no chance of becoming the hero characters as everyone is gunna want to be aragorn or legolas etc. I think this title should be a good jolly !!

This is just a clear example of a publisher using the franchise to milk money. I believe i read an article a few months back where an IW exec mentioned Treyarch were already developing the 'next' (next in that only true CoD sequals are made by IW) but after that IW would tke the reins once more for CoD5 or maybe only 6.

Personally i think this is such a bad move since WW2 whilst tried and tested, offers nothing new to gamers - we've seen every conflict zone one way or another and theres nothing left, gamers just arnt excited by that period for FPS games.

i dunno, i think any FPS can have crit levelled against it, Bioshock is largely linear, CoD is very linear, Doom 4 too dark etc etc. I think you have to judge each FPS on its merits and i think as a whole Crysis was an excellent game and introduced not only a great engine, but also good AI, story, and as a package was very good. COD4 was an excellent game, bioshock too. True in DN4E weve only seen a glimpse, whilst i hope it will be 'genre-defining' i cant help thinking when and IF it gets released its going to be another Daiktana (or however you spell that crap)

BTW - i played Bad company demo last night on XBLM - WOW - excellent game - NOW RELEASE FOR PC !!! :)

i have to disagree i think the gameplay looks remarkably average and standard run and gun fare. To be frank on that (limited) showing, it looks nowhere near as good as est. FPS games such as Crysis, CoD4, HL2, bioshock etc. Admittedly its only a glimpse but i see nothing to write home about

decidely average imo
