Japan Loves Fallout

[ Game -> Review ] - More info on <a href="http://wikipocalypse.duckandcover.cx/in ... title=Duck and Cover">Community: Duck and Cover</a> | More info on <a href="http://wikipocalypse.duckandcover.cx/in ... le=Fallout: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game">Game: Fallout: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game</a>

The Japanese game site <a target="_self" href="http://www.4gamer.net">4Gamer.net</a> has done a very nice <a target="_self" href="http://www.4gamer.net/news.php?url=/wee ... >review</a> of Fallout. The site is in Japanese, but I put it through the <a target="_self" href="http://babelfish.altavista.com/">Babelfish</a> site translator. It's by no means a perfect translation, but you can get the general idea. Here's a quote:<blockquote>
But, in just the under dog, somewhere being the title where
attachment has grown fact. "About the useless child it probably
is the person who is said lovely"? </blockquote>I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean either. But they definitely seemed to think it's a classic. Thanks to SharkD and Mikail for letting me know.

I thought they didn't have any PC games in Japan

That's pretty funny. I bet most Japanazis play with the kamikaze trait enabled.

EDIT: Man is the char setup screen beautiful.

They do, it's all just Japanimation based uber-shite.

Edit: Oh, and interactive animated porn too.

I was joking when I said the Japanese love Fallout. Basically all Jap PC games are like what Zetura described.

Theres always going to be a few who like some game that is foreign to them. I dont even think Fallout was translated to Japanese, so they would have to know English.

Let's just hope it doesn't get too popular in Japan or Namco or some other shit might buy the licence.

The Ultima series was quite popular in Japan or so I've read.

Probably, I was going off of a remembered article in a three year old issue of PC-Gamer when I said that. I don't remember much of it except that these things make up about ninety percent of PC sales in the country.

The closest case of incest in the western PC scene was in the Imoen mod for Baldur's Gate 2.

You could have sex with your brother or sister in the Sims 2.

Kashluk is having sex with his little brother in real life. He wins.

I must admit I would be rather dissapointed at such turn of events

Are we sure that this is actually a review of Fallout?

Of course it is. Just look at the screenshots.

Why do they have fishhooks in their cheeks?

Ah, yes, that was an awkward situation.

I don't speak hebrew, so I don't know what to make of it. Still, here are some possibilities.

A ) By the way, I'm your grandmother in disguise.
B ) Congratulations. You now have aids.
C ) PAY 10 DOLLA!!!

If it's C, the response is something along the lines of "I'm a gook! I can't possibly have that kind of money!"

maybe he's got the "fast shot" perk and she's disappointed
