  1. I just think that Bethesda would have been better off not dredging up an old game and created an original IP for an post apocalyptic game. It would probably sale just as well if not better.
  2. Mozambique's problems are for Mozambique to solve. US problems are for the US to solve.
  3. Its not an issue of it being the same, but have the game reach a natural evolution so that it would be still on par with current games yet still give an accurate reflection of its previous incarnations. For example, the issue of Turn Base Combat. Now I am not expecting it to be solely turn base like Fallout 1 and 2 was, however real time is right out. The most viable option that would cater the actiony people and those who are traditionalists would be a toggle between turn base and continual turn base as is in Fallout Tactics. That is one of a few things Tactics did right. Another issue is Isometric view. There is no way in hell a 2D game is marketable today and I am fine with that. The best option would be to have the game in full 3D render, as in Oblivion, but with full camera control and camera options as is in Neverwinter Nights 2, plus a toggle fo those who prefer first person view. With that style of camera options they simply cannot lose because it would be completely malleable to the player's needs and gameplay style. Those are just two examples in which the game can be completely marketable and using today's technology while at the same time still pay homage to the original Fallout CRPGs.
  4. If you will have me, I live in the Central Time Zone. I like Halfling Monk/Rogues. :D
  5. Good. I'll be safe.
  6. Walsh, it isn't our place to rebuild countries when our own country is in the crapper.
  7. I do my best to avoid Fox shows since they canceled Firefly.

  9. Any ethnic war in Iraq would be the responsibility of the Iraqis to get into or out of. If the Sunnis, Kurds, and the Shiites can't find a common ground and get along, and aim on killing each other for stupid reasons they will do so regardless if we are there or not. Our troops are stopping nothing. Our troops are just getting in the crossfire. Until the Iraqis see that violence and murder, as a culture and a nation, is not the answer to solve differences death and destruction will continue. The only sane course is to get out of the way.
  10. You make a good point, RP. I just think that Bethesda would have been better served to make their own PA CRPG than try to make Fallout relevant in today's gaming market.
  11. I go to work even when I am sick since there is no one to cover my shift.
  12. Reality is how you define it, but sometimes I get a syntax error.
  13. I rather live in the harsh uncaring reality that wants to chew you up then spit you out. Much more cheery than my fantasies.
  14. Because it is always fun to read the manual then play the game to see where the manual is wrong.
  15. Intel onboard video is crap for games. They aren't made for them. They are there when one doesn't have a video card but need a way for the computer to access the monitor.
  16. It uses a 65nm processor if memory serves, which requires a quieter fan and draws less power and makes less heat.
  17. Hmmmm... If I showed up I expect everyone to try to kill me. Which could be fun in of itself...
  18. I am mostly thinking about the Middle East, and not Japan. Japan no longer hates us because we keep buying their crap over priced electronics. What they couldn't do militarily they are doing through economics.
  19. Um... Yeah.
  20. To tell the truth I never played Ultima Underworlds. Didn't look all that interesting to me. Also TES 3 and 4 have third person view which is what I use for the game, though 4 is a bit too actiony so it plays more like an action game with some RPG elements. Never played TES 1 and 2. I also played Bloodlines completely in third person view. It also played like an action game with some RPG elements, like Oblivion.
  21. Where does NWN2 have a first person view?
  22. I rather have no Fallout than a bad Fallout.
  23. Yeppers. By giving resources to a nation that hates us all we do is empower them to attack us again.
  24. Hey, it beats gold farming!
