  1. I'm not talking about gameplay really. And I'm fine with turnbased combat personally since I grew up with it. I'm talking about the content. Fallout 2 had a ton of funny pop culture references and never felt like it took itself too seriously. It had some pretty over-the-top scenarios. You could literally make a guy explode by fucking him and could have sex to get good deals. While I am aware you can do this in Fallout 3 with mods the whole tone of the game makes such scenarios not fit in well and they just end up ruining the experience for me in Fallout 3. I feel Fallout 3's tone misses the point entirely and takes itself too seriously.
  2. I'm fine with 30 fps personally. As far as I know, Firefox cannot take advantage of the new 60 fps YouTube yet and I use Firefox.
  3. YEah I'd even claim it's a lot easier than Borderlands 1.
  4. Oh I'm interested. I was just referring to why my review is negative and what my feelings towards Fallout 3 CONTENT wise are. Gameplay wise most of the bugs can be fixed and most of the issues can be fixed with mdos, yes. I'm just saying none of it really adds anything into the game that makes it as fun as Fallout 2 for me.
  5. Oh, I agree completely. Ash was one of my favourite twists in Alien and such a terrifying concept. The Working Joes are possibly even more terrifying, but at least easily spotted cause of their glowing eyes.
  6. Well, here's a link to a mod that fixes a lot of the game's issues, including some of the gameplay issues you specifically complained about in both reviews of yours that I have read. Obviously not all of them, and many things you didn't mention, but it does solve many of them and there isn't much there I have reason to believe you wouldn't like. http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/20533/? EDIT: And just now updated to version 1.1. Both of you please let me know if you have any issues, alright? My review was of the vanilla game as I feel reviewing a game with mods would be unfair. And vanilla Fallout 3 is just a major disappointment when compared to Fallout 2. I mean, even with mods it still is in terms of story, tone and game feel and no amount of mods can fix the core issues with the game. That's not saying I hate the game or anything, in fact I love playing it, but I just don't think it holds up to the older games, especially Fallout 2 in terms of content.
  7. I've heard people describe Pre-Sequel as "harder than Borderlands 2". I have honestly no idea what they are on about because so far it's the easiest of the games in my opinion. Though playing as Nisha that might have something to do with it.
  8. Being sick...
  9. The raid boss is incredibly easy compared to the raid bosses in Borderlands 2. My friend's level 20-something Athena could solo him.
  10. I do play a fair bit of Fallout 3 now and then.
  11. Killzone: Mercenary
  12. LaserDance - Goody's Return
  13. Ministry - I Wanted to Tell Her
  14. Using my Vita to browse the web. PC is being shipped to my new place atm...
  15. dudududu...
  16. Doom is awesome when played in a modern source port.
  17. Well I don't want to be too hard on Notch since he's a fan of the videos actually, but I think everybody making the "of course I would sell" argument doesn't already have 600 million dollars in the first place. There's not a whole hell of a lot you can't do with 600 million that you can with over a billion when you have that kind of money to begin with. I was thinking about it actually, if I had that kind of money, I would feel some sort of responsibility to try and better humanity in some way, it's just an incredible sum. I actually sent Notch an email telling him I respect his decision if he turns around and uses the money to start a cult. I think the controversy comes from selling it to Microsoft. Like I'm making up numbers here, but I bet if he sold it to Valve or Riot Games for 1.5 billion, I doubt there would be too much controversy and he still would have made out like a bandit on top of having already made out like a bandit to begin with. Yeah, Microsoft has a ton of stigma nowadays. Probably up there with EA among being considered an evil corporation thing. I think Notch should definitely focus on spending the money where it matters.
  18. Earl Grey Ceylon tea.
  19. LASER - CAUTION - LASER - CAUTION - LASER - CAUTION - LASER...
  20. Could be a fun idea. Would love someone with a Russian accent to tackle it.
  21. Packed some more stuff today. Relaxing with some Fallout 3 atm.
  22. I'm thoroughly entertained by how much Freeman is analyzing the science behind the teleporters. Personally when I play Half-Life I just go along with it, not really questioning how it works.
  23. Not that I am aware of. The Accursed Farms website is the way he prefers interacting with the fans I think.
  24. Sorry, but we don't allow username changes on the forum.
  25. Fallout: New Vegas is truly awesome. Definitely a huge improvement over Fallout 3 in my honest opinion.
