No one should be "proud" or "disgusted" over a fanclub of an old RPG game on the internet. It's just sad. No game is worth getting that worked up over. It's a game to play in your spare time, not something you devote your life to. You scarred your skin for life in devotion of a PC game. Seems like madness to me. It's your skin though, but don't start swinging your e-penis around because you decided to do it. If a developer doesn't decide to get a tattoo of his game, are you now more HARDCORE than them?

Silly. It really isn't worth getting so worked up about. These are opinionated news sites and always have been, if you are a long time reader, you'd expect this. The NMA Vs DaC stuff has been much worse and is currently fairly civil, as far as I can see.

Wars between sites are stupid, your provoking them is stupid and I doubt the admins on either side with thank you. It doesn't help anyone. If you don't like it make a complaint about the post, rather than saying you are better than the rest and insulting them all. No one minds everyday complaints, it helps keep things on track. You can say "THIS IS CRAP I THINK THE ART IS AWESOME" and no one would have really cared.

Dude who cares! He's just some troll no one ever seen before. Am I supposed to somehow be ashamed of myself because some stranger (who is probably Kharn or Odin on a proxy anyway) said that he doesn't respect me?

I still don't understand the whole thing going on there. Too much drama.

Man, that concept art with the Mad Max pictures sucks.

It's like the artist guy they always used in the Black Isle crap doesnt know how to do anything besides fantasy (normal person? okay, lets make them PAPER WHITE despite being in the desert with combed pretty hair) and then the gigantic ass shoulder pad with 90 spikes in it...

Idiots.

Yes, everyone in the game should look like unshaved bums with red skin.

Oh, and an extra eye or a tentacle due to birth defects caused by FALLOUT.

Fez · Post by **Fez** » Fri Mar 11, 2005 12:00 am

The character art would look better with a more haggard face. The pretty boy look he has would look better on the cover of a gay magazine. I think that throws it off a bit. Less poser and more desperate survivor.

ApTyp · Post by **ApTyp** » Fri Mar 11, 2005 12:22 am

Maybe he's just gay. You know, like everyone in Mad Max world :roll:

Next time someone releases a Fallout game the should just release two versions: one Regular-versiopn(with unshaved haaggard faces) and one Gay- and/or Lesbian-version(with pretty boys and androgenic girls!).

Everybody is equal after all... HAHAHAHA!

How about you take some of your own advice and you shut the fuck up about our coverage of Van Buren? NMA is NMA. DAC is DAC. How about we both cover Van Buren in our own ways? If you were smart, you'd also notice the critiscism was directed more towards "Mr Anonymous Source" than it was towards NMA. Well, except POOPERSCOOPER's comment.

While you're at it, learn to use the shift key too.

that could be one of the random captions on the front page.

It'll be added.

This is just part of Interplay's scheme to drum up support for VB to increase sales.

Sad my ass. Imagine that there are people for whom gaming isn't just 'something to do in spare time'. It's a hobby, at least. Is that sad? No sadder than having half of your room in Milano posters or some other 'serious' shit.

Fez · Post by **Fez** » Fri Mar 11, 2005 2:38 pm

No. It is.

I'll take the opportunity and end the pointless argument.
