No, that was just captain Needa.

Associated how? In a manner that excludes any other ruleset that can perform similarly (or better) from being used for that setting?

Just you wait...

Apparently, you are contradicting yourself: If the focus of the site is, as you claim, not to convince people not to buy the game, but to inform and present the game as it is in an objective, unbiased way, there's no need to put up a new site, as the flood of previews, reviews and reports is inevitable with a project like this. So you are not content with just not getting a game you don't like. You want to impose yout view of what you think the game should be on the developers themselves, by having their product fail. This is fanaticism, in the worst possible way. Yay.

Can we say... faulty logic?

Indeed, education programs need a funds injection, real bad.

In fact, Tactics was a pretty awesome squad-based tactical combat game. You have yet to come up with a valid argument to back your claim that "SPECIAL can't work in real time". Your not being able to manage it does not hold much weight around these parts, since you have proven that without a play-during-pause feature, you can't quite play RPGs. No. That's more like converting the crappy d6 Star Wars RPG into the undoubtedly better d20 system. Oh noes, foiled again! Huh? Then by definition it's not proof. The only thing sadder than an elitist about something trivial is a failed elitist about something trivial.

And thus, it's finally admitted that all there's behind this effort is resentment and bitterness. Sad in many ways, really.

Volo makes an evasion roll to avoid damage from Point To Obvious Blunder:(1) automatic failure!

She said most people wouldn't bother protesting. It'd be a pretty sad and unsuccessful franchise if the rabid punks at NMA&Co. accounted for most of the fanbase. You fail reading comprehension.

And more importantly, why should anyone take it upon themselves to babysit those people?

Anti-hype? What is that supposed to mean, exactly? Are they going to write unbiased reviews and rate the game regardless of its name? And if so, why do they need to put up yet another site just for that? There's plenty of sites that'll offer way more objective reviews than the likes of NMA could ever aspire to. Looks like a high-profile attempt at selling their own vision of what a Fallout game should be. Non-hostile? That'll be the day. "Lies about its greatness"? According to whom? Because a great many people think the game is "great" indeed, so... Yeah, "true" as in copy-paste from Fallout. Not gonna happen, though, so they'll whine all the same and pat themselves on the back because they were right all along. Either way, they win, huh?

They can run, but they can't hide...

Whatever happened to the good ol' Death Ray projects? What's with this trend of watering down everything lately...

Need to compensate for something, Ed? What the hell? I've seen some pretty incompetent people handle guns (some even managed to actually bend a 5.56 round while cocking the thing), but none ever came close to injuring themselves. Bad maintenance perhaps? I hear it's fairly easy to break a wrist with that thing... Hello yourself. ) Stupid filter...

It will be Fallout. They own the license, you don't. End of thread.

Does it even have a story? [insert broken record pic]

I didn't say they don't want money. Now, do they want the money more than they want the US out? According to the Wiki, they don't.

The US came to be a power too late to have any colonies in the traditional sense. This is only relevant however if you are going to stick to the colonial aspect of imperialism. This is a self-contradicting statement. If a nation is sovereign, it by definition is not controlled externally by anyone else. Otherwise, there is no proper sovereignty. You are also quite conveniently omitting the fact that the US has exerted influence in the domestic and foreign policies of many countries over time, the extent of that influence is still the subject of much debate. Again, yes. There haven't been any American governors or viceroys in the traditional colonial sense, but that alone does not make an empire. It's quite easy to appear lawful when you're the one making the law. Heh, I'm surprised you brought this up. I guess this is an exception to the rule of "if they want us out, we leave", then. Why yes, and Americans don't wear those weird wigs, or sail around in galleons either. Comparing American imperialism to traditional imperialism is like comparing the Old Regime with present democracy, or medieval battle tactics with modern submarine warfare; it makes no sense and it doesn't work very well. Times have changed, and so has imperialism. Save for the colonial bit (which, since there are no US colonies, is irrelevant), this sentence works just as well if you replace "British" with "American". You are focusing your entire argument in colonialism, because it's the only way it works. But there's more to imperialism than colonies. Heh, "intellectually dishonest", that's pretty cool. I wish I could get that under my avatar. Anyway, why get so worked up about it? Unlike many people, I do not believe that imperialism has the negative connotations that the word seems to have acquired recently. I'm not attempting a thinly veiled attack against your country, either. But if I were to rephrase and say that the US is a "superpower", would you dispute that as well? It's just an argument of semantics, then.

Not sure what you mean by this. Every engagement the Spanish Legion has taken part in, they have proven their effectiveness. Even though it was modeled after the FFL, it was never a "Foreign" corps by itself. At present, they are considered crack units in the Spanish military. It was established late (colonially speaking), though. If it talks like a duck and walks like a duck...

exactly, and its even improving <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Found your twin soul, didn't you?

Ya, I was going to make a comment along those lines too...

And prohibition prevents that how?

Installed it, played it for 20 minutes, and deleted it. That's pretty much all I can remember.
