I posted a couple of news items at NMA.

A quote to remember and is my new sig:

Attention Feargus:
Enjoy your really kewl minigun particles now in crappy 3D, bitch.

I also think the news item was spelled wrong. It should be "screenshits".

The funniest bit about the whole 2d v 3d thing is that every one in the 3d camp thinks that the game will look like STALKER or sommat. Hell, judging on Interplay's past work we'd be lucky for it to look like the 3d incarnation of monkey island.

Even if they got rid of the Fallout name and tried something "original" I'd still think the game looked and sounded like ass.

Would be funny to see the Project Phoenix dealy upstage them with a top down 3d rpg that doesn't suck.

What's funny about MI4 was that it's control scheme eschewed the traditional, effective, not-sucky control method of the mouse in favor of an all-keyboard setup. This was obviously to save time when porting it to the PS2, which only had a gamepad and no mouse.

So that's two classic franchises fucked up so far to accomodate consoles (although there's still hope for MI5 provided they go with a fucking mouse-driven interface this time). Who's next?

If they're going to make a crappy Fallout for the PS2, they might as well put a little more effort into the graphics.

Exactly. Even shiny shit can sell. Stuff that looks like crap and may have questionable other "value" just spells doom.

I used to think FoT was total crap, too, but in all reality the only thing they blotched was the single player storyline. The multiplayer was fun. The editor was a pain, but it worked. The graphics were pretty badass. The combat system was fun.

This new game lacks ALL of those features.

You know what's sad too? In a few years, some people might remember Fallout and only think about that kiddie-oriented game which had women wearing g-strings and fishnets instead of thinking about the greatness of the original game.
P.S.: Rosh, I love your sig. ;)

I think I'll wait for the PC port of this not very polished turd to end up in the Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£5 bargin bin in GAME when it will be worth buying as it will only cost me the London equivalent of a coffee and a sandwich...

If they were gonna fuck up the fallout-license as they are gonna do with this game, they could at least have used the U2 engine and made it something like Devastation :)
but.. they had to make a faggy isometric 3rd person game :mad:
that even has crappy graphics :evil:

Sad thing is,..., are these the "best" screen shots they have available to kick off this knock off?

The PS2's monitor is A BIG TV, and the graphics tend to look "good enough", but where are the "pretty" shots to sell the product. Can these hacks be trusted to create a game? The PS2 is a game platform,....Game Play,..., NOT Fore Play!!!!

If it's porn, give us GOOD PORN. Give us ""Extreme XXX Fallout Desert Volley Balls"". Give us ""Sloppy Ghoul Sex!""

'Grand Theft Auto' and 'Getaway' are "mature" titles AND they are games. Interactive entertainment, not introspective masterbation.
Please tell me there is a game here. It doesn't have to be Final Fantasy X, or FF XXX, AND it may be I'play's 'final fantasy' of a FO title. If it's NOT the best you all can do, at least make it "sloppy seconds"..

The PS2 press is mature/competitve enough to call it like they see it, so expect no mercy if this Great Pretender, this Legacy Title, has "no clothes".

Still born,... . ,Shovelware?

The campaign to sell FOT looks like a Superbowl grade ad effort, now.

Who is responsible for mishandling this 'Once And Future' marketing failure?

I WANT THAT NAME.

Not F.U.'s or the head of Viv-endie, I want the name of the sorry slacker responsible for pouring this cold pot of piss out the window, ..., onto unsuspecting console innocents.

If there is no game here, not a fig leaf of market justification; this sad effort shall be tattooed on their karma.

No pride, no craft, no Lara Croft.

Do they really expect to make money, or are they CHURNING the account to justify their pay check?

Or are they too ashamed to take responsibility.

No pride, no craft, no Lara Croft.

Sad.
