I'm thinking that perhaps this was a cry for help from Asstr0. You know, if this was the funniest thing he's seen all day, then he must be having a pretty lousy day.

I was going to go with Darth Vader, but seeing as George Lucas has completely destroyed the character in recent years, I'm not so sure anymore.

Not funny.

That's actually the best moment in the new trilogy, and not because it's sad. Those self righteous,badly written twits had it coming.

I prefer the one that isn't a blight in the annals of movie making.

We rule!

That's the best thing about Total War. I can't wait to capture Scandinavia with Portugal.

This is too crazy, even for you.

I saw The Queen today.

A lot of that footage had already appeared before. I guess the highlight of that trailer is the airplane crash and the lighthouse.

In my experience, most "professional" reviews sites aren't very good. Whit that in mind, I don't think IGN is worse, than Gamespy, Gamespot, or whatever. But I don't think they're better either.

As long as he doesn't scream Lou's name out loud in the height of passion, then I'm ok with it.

Is there anyone around who didn't know that?

That's not from Ultima VII, so don't worry.

Note that I'm not saying that a Fallout style game could never be successful nowadays, I'm just saying that it wouldn't be a big hit among the mainstream crowd. Fallout was successful because it managed to appeal to a certain market niche, not because it sold bundles to the mainstream crowd.

...that right there be what's wrong wit' the gamin' community today an' where the "dumbed-down" effect comes inta play...noone wants ta play a well written, well designed 40+ hour cRPG anymmores...theys want gore, eye candy, an' li'l else matters...more's the pity...a FO or PS:T style game will'na sell, an' that truly be a sad thing... :'( ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!... There are also a lot of people that just don't have the time for 40+ hour cRPG.

But he wasn't a hero. He was just a guy with amnesia.

And Arcanum, Bloodlines, ect... Okay, I can agree with Bloodlines, but definitely not with Arcanum.

I don't think Fallout has too much text. However, every casual PC gamer I know (and many hardcore gamers too) thinks it has too much text. Not to mention that they also think RPGs in general are too time consuming.

The only "recent" RPG I can think of that didn't have a "stupid hero plot" was Torment.

It was still too text-heavy for most people.

In my experience, most gamers don't want to read when playing their games. That would kind of destroy any hope of making a mainstream Fallout style game.
