Does anyone here have any taste in games?
    #13047856 - 08/13/10 09:01 PM (2 years, 9 months ago)

Has anyone here ever played Fallout? Any of the Fallout games? One of the best games to succesfully combine first person with third person shooting. Fallout New Vegas is my topic, what do you think about it? Are you excited? I know I am, I've been waiting for this game ever since I beat the last one. The map is supposed to be twice as huge as the last one in fallout 3. I just hope the storyline gets better and I would love to see some of the characters for the 1st and 2nd fallout.
Are you going to get Fallout New Vegas?
You may choose only one
Hell YEA!!!
No, It's stupid.
Maybe, Maybe not?
What's a fallout? :D

Fallout 1 and 2 were way better then Fallout 3. I've played all and Fallout just couldn't keep me addicted like the first and second game did....

so i guess i have no taste as Fallout 3 is a loser in my oppinion

Fallout 3 was cool but it lacked polish. I guess I'm used to blizzard spoiling me... Is new vegas going to have better graphics? Or is it just a new map and new group of quest hubs? Like is it an expansion or a new game?

new game.  same engine, just reworked a bit, plus they're adding iron sights so it can be played more like a typical FPS, plus a bunch of new features.  should be pretty awesome given the groundwork bethesda laid out, though I'm not sure about obsidian doing it considering alpha protocol sucking pretty bad, though they've done some good stuff in the past like kotor2.

Fallout's concept is so good. I hope they realize it better in New Vegas. Some somewhat intelligent AI would be nice, too.

Basically, your companions are going to have storylines. Your going to have a companion wheel to make them do whatever you want them to do. New guns, a whole new map twice as big as DC. Lots and lots of quests. Fallout 1 was the best though in IMO.

i've never really been able to get into these open world games unless i'm pretty stoned/on amps. the shooting controls weren't very sharp and the gameplay was too slow for a fps (IMO). i don't really get a kick out of managing my inventory and leveling up skills.

it was pretty though, and i admit it was a good game, just not my thing..

Agreed, I feel like they reduce the downtime between shooting by like half. And honestly, invest in some fucking AI.

Agreed. But you know with that kind of game, the more intelligent the AI, the more glitchy it gets.

I was disappointed by fallout 3 * I played all the fallouts including tactics and brother hood of steel. The first two are great and there is a large community thats been keeping them alive.

I can say I have been disappointed with the quilt y of games lately BFBC2, Fallout 3, Dragon age , ect....

I have a feeling I might stop most gaming all together besides civ 4 ( civ 5 looks like a piece of shit) and anarchy online


--------------------

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

wait for improvments... games haave these periods appearntly that are like lulls in imagination... or or at least lulls in what CAN be done.

RAGE and portal are games i am hoping to be better then most of the shit that has been put out in recent years.

the new bioshock coming in a couple years too... gonna be great; they have been working on it since bioshock one.

oh and fallout 1 & 2 were some of my favorite games... i am getting into planescape torment now too, and it's made by the same dudes and it's awesome.

If you guys loved the original Fallout games you should check out Arcanum. It was made by the same people, was better polished, had a longer and better storyline, more room for character development etc - the only downside over Fallout in my opinion for some people was that it was steampunk rather than post-apocalyptic, but for me personally that was a plus rather than a negative.

As for the Fallout games themselves, I like all 3, the first 2 were more in depth and better overall but the environment of the 3rd game made up for it's shortcomings.

oh man this just cemented me buying fallout new vegas day 1.  hilarious as fuck.
Quote:


The Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB), a non-profit, self-regulatory board that assigns ratings for videogames, has outed Fallout: New Vegas' steamy sexcapades.

Not only can players have sex with human beings, but they can also have sex with robots, as the rating suggests players will have sequences where it's made apparent for both.

Here's the description per the ESRB:

    During the course of the game, players will encounter male and female prostitutes: the screen fades to black as suggestive dialogue is heard in the background (e.g., "Nice charlies, too! Give them a shake for the Ben-man, will ya?").

    There is also an extended sequence suggesting (no depiction) sexual activity with a robot (e.g., "Fisto reporting for duty . . . Please assume the position," "I suppose I should test you out . . . Servos active!" and "Something wrong with someone if they got to f**k a machine.")


The rating also lists what we've come to expect from a Fallout game, such as drug use, slow-motion killing, "cracked out junkies," and "degenerate, drug-addicted killers."

Fallout 3 also had similar depictions of sexual intercourse and prostitution.




the part I put in bold made me LOL pretty hard.

We will see I would have like F3 if it played like the first two but thats just me.

I just couldnt get into the story as much. Not to saying there werent points that were great.

But you cant kill children or finish the game without firing a shot

fuck, yes. finally someone understands what fallout was about.


fallout 3... i'll admit, i played it thhrough and through. they added some things the first fallouts could of done with, but it WAS indeeed trash.

i am rather excited for fallout new vegas, as they got some of the original staff back.

it MIGHT impress. its more like fallout 2 than fallout 3 (or so i'm told).

heres to hoping.
