The gaming industry is in such good hands.

I know I've been a strong advocate of modding FO3 for a while now, but... now it all just seems so much more... morally justified.

I think I flushed Todd's head down the toilet in JHS.

so turns out Fallout 3 was just a revenge plot against you

What other explanation could there possible be?

Wait, I just read that shit.

Pitfall? For real Todd? It's the same screen over and over again without end. Sometimes there's a rope, and sometimes there isn't. And if that's the case you have to jump the gators and all position on their eye.
Oh wait is that a treasure chest? Oh shit it's a scorpion.

His list is more like an "important games in history" list. My favorite games have nothing whatsoever to do with games I respect.

And does he really not believe Rockstar has improved on their formula at least a smidgen since GTA3?

Didn't he once say that Fallout was one of his absolutely favorite games? I forget, but I'm pretty sure it was a statement he made to assure us that Fallout was in good hands.

I remember that as well. But then again, Fallout's role playing elements are nothing compared to Call of Duty.

holy shit! I didn't even realize Fallout was excluded. What a douchey move! I mean the franchise is paying for you to eat! At least give it a shoutout

I feel like punching something. GRRR....

The term RPG is becoming very misconstrued. The good hands think its about pretending to be something, like a shooter in the case of CoD4. SHIT!!
we ARE NOT in good hands

When getting ass fucked, does it really matter whether the one doing it is a nazi or a minister?

Regardless of which you are still on all four screaming with agony as his (holy/nazi) member repeatedly plunges into your bottany bay.

Todd is correct. You guys should check your definition of roleplaying.

Since when does leveling up constitute a role playing game?
