Man, that's just mean. I really don't get it. I guess they know that Fallout will win anyway...

Right now my bet is that their current "poll maker guy" (or girl) has a slant for Fallout...

I got an idea for the next meaningless poll.


Rate Fallout's 1337ness!
Here are the choices:

1337
uber 1337
uber monster kickass 1337
holy fuck I shit my pants 1337
Ultimater Uber HaXX0r 1337 sausage!

Sure, make fun of the point that I went through the link you made to get there and the forum cookie wasn't quite valid that way. :P

I suspect they plan to ask about several game aspect over the next few weeks. "Which game has the best gameplay?" "Which game has the best story?" "Which game has the best graphics?" Etcetera. And when they see that Fallout wins in every category, they might just realize there are people out there who might maybe want to see a new Fallout instead of a new Icewind Dale.
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

I almost wonder if someone is trying to prove that there is a demand for Fallout.

They probably meant to put Turrican in place of Metroid. Turrican 2 has better music anyways.

The synthpop/EBM in Turrican 2 was pretty awesome.

You can download the high quality versions of those songs from mp3.com. I've forgotten the composer's name, but he's got a site there.

I just realized how much I loved the music style of Fallout 1 & 2. The intro music choices were PERFECT. The general game music never felt repetitive to me. Best of all they put the right music in the right places to set the appropriate mood.

I usually turn off music in all the games I've played, especially RPG's. However I was enthralled by Fallout's music. I still find myself humming some of it now and then. :P

Anyone else find that piano music that comes in and then fades away in Redding eerie?

Fallout has one of the best soundtracks ever... topped only by Resident Evil.

The Fallout ambient sound was great.

Arcanum's music was also great, but the Tarrant music sounds excactly like the music in the movie: "To kill a mocking bird"...

It reminds me that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games also had GREAT music.

I really don't think any other game could top the Fallout Soundtrack. Period.

Ahaha then you obviously haven't played Tropico.

Fallout had the best sync between music and visuals. They match perfectly.
