Looks like they got someone retarded to write this, i assume no one else could think of anything good to say:

Taking everything from Oblivion IV and turning it into something even more focused, Fallout 3 brings together a much more focused story and adds the integration with a personal character system that lets you experience the world in all it's simplicity. With a great combat system like the VATS and moreover a vast landscape that is still similarly unparalleled to Bethesda Softworks' previous titles, Fallout 3 might be the first post-apocalyptic world that everyone wants to surprisingly be some part.

Oblivion 4? A personal character system thats so integrated it lets you experience simplicity? The VATS?

After reading that critical masterpiece, i surprisingly want to be some part.

[Kashluk]

The VATS had nothing great or special about it. Although they did keep the old TB combat sound effects.

on a completely unrelated note, if the sheriff is black, and you kill him, why are a couple of things happening:

1) When you kill him, a Bob Marley instrumental should start just for those of us who are complete nerds and would laugh

2) NAACP should be very upset, because chances are you'll be playing a white character, and the inherent underlying tones of racism would be apparent to anyone who is socially aware enough to understand that the white man has been oppressing the negro race for far too long, and as a result, blatant racism like this should not be tolerated in the serious world of videogaming, as it is reaches a far broader audience than it did even 5 years ago.

:Capcom:

I hope you can beat FO3 in 11 minutes, just like Oblivion.

There are speedruns of Fallouts as well.

From GayGamer:

Fruit Brute and I got a few tightly-scheduled moments with Fallout 3 last week, and the experience managed to be all I’d hoped and familiar at the same time. What’s familiar is the lore and world of Fallout, which Bethesda has managed to reproduce and elaborate upon in a way that only a company that focuses on complete world building can do. Fallout purists may still resent Bethesda’s position, but as a die-hard Fallout fan myself, I was more than satisfied.



Proves so many things on so many levels.

[PiP]

die-hard indeed.

[S4ur0n27]

gaygamer likes fallout 3

[VasikkA]

I guess we're not the only ones being fucked in the ass by Bethesda. These guys probably enjoy it, too.

[PiP]

yeah, being fucked in the ass by developers suddenly gained new meaning

WOW, at first i thought negative towards them, but i saw that piture at the top left. It looked like one of those 40s cartoons, whcih made me think of what the term gay meant back then, are u sure they are actually fagots? or just "misusing" the work gay? ( )

AND.. for the speedrun there are also Fallout 1 and 2 speed runs. Fallout 3 looks good i want to play it when it comes out. Wow i just watched that oblivion speed run, and he glitched the whole way lol. In fallout it was 9 min speedrun without glitches or cheating. It takes ALOT longer than an hour to do the main quest in oblivion though.

Cazsim- ROFL u gave me a good laugh

[Smiley]

They are indeed, gay, and not just jolly.

"lets you experience the world in all it's simplicity"
