I'm excited for the game as well. I enjoyed Fallout 3 and New Vegas immensely. However, I can also understand that Fallout "as we know it" died after Fallout Tactics. Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas and now Fallout 4 all have very different approaches to game style (and in someways, the game mythology itself). And while I, personally, think a retro-styled Fallout like 1 & 2 as a side companion series to where Bethesda wants the primary series to go would be super-awesome, I understand that this is primarily a pipe dream. So I'm excited for Fallout 4. Can't wait to play it. But I acknowledge that this is the same Fallout as Fallout 1 or 2. No value judgement there, it just is.

'Fallout as it was' was dead when they changed to a 3D action game from an isometric turn based one. IMO, if the new changes make it a better 3D action game, then it'll be for the better, since that seems to be where Bethesda wants to take the series. I've been asking the same questions on the Bethesda forum but I'm guessing they won't fix a damn thing Pretty bad business to sell a game that's knowingly unworkable to a new audience; I mean sure there's a workaround, but since it seems to stem from the GFWL and dual cores (IIRC) it seems like it'd be something fixable rather than having a new player have to rush to the internet to figure out how to get the game to run.

Although he did do comics, I can't help but view Frazetta as primarily a book illustrator and painter rather than a comic artist. I mean Martin Landau worked as a comic strip artist in the mid-40s to early-50s (IIRC) but I doubt most people really think "Yeah, Landau, what a career in comics!". Similarly I do the same with Frazetta. I've even read some of his published comic work. But the major parts of his work weren't really connected with comics, making the comics kind of interesting curiosities.

The one with them artificially breeding turkey's may have been the worst one I've seen. If I'd have been eating, I would have been sick. Luckily I learned pretty quickly that eating and Dirty Jobs doesn't go well together.

Does anyone know if Bethesda releasing the Fallout Anthology for PC is going to mean a fix for the issues with getting Fallout 3 to run on a newer machine? Or will people who buy it still have to find workarounds to get it to run?

6'10" Italian Warlord...is that you? EDIT: The more I think about it, I think it was 6' not a gargantuan 8'

Its a bar location in Sacred 2 that serves as an Easter Egg reference to From Dusk til Dawn

You could prove you can provide links by providing links to proof.

Okay good, I was just worried it was a book There is a proven connection between cynicism and serial killers ....so you just rather play it safe Could you give a link to that proof? Because I've never heard that before.

Lone Wolf and Cub 70s film series was pretty good. The samurai works of Akira Kurosawa (like The Hidden Fortress, Seven Samurai, or the aforementioned Throne of Blood) If you looking for a horror-Samurai film, I can recommend Kuroneko (1968) I've heard good things about LADY SNOWBLOOD (1973) and LADY SNOWBLOOD: LOVE SONG OF VENGEANCE (1974) based of stories from the Lone Wolf creators. The "Zatoichi" series (1962-1973) is supposed to be pretty good. There was a blind swordswoman series in response to the Zatoichi series called the "Crimson Bat" (four films 1969-1970). The "Nemuri Kyoshiro" series (in the US released as "Sleepy Eyes of Death" series) also has a strong reputation. The trailers for "Hanzo the Razor" (3 films, 1972-74) made it seem pretty insane (and definately un-PC), but I've only seen the trailers for it. Hanzo isn't a samurai, though, but a constable in the Edo period and wields a jutte with a weighted chain for defense.

So it's basically Hunted: Demon's Forge, except politically correct and inclusive. I liked Hunted:The Demon Forge, so that wouldn't be so bad. Particularly if they can improve on its gameplay. Don't really care about the forced protagonists for this nor hunted

There's been a fan theory for year that the Lone Gunmen faked their death. This idea was also presented in Chris Carter's X-Files comic. ...but as a fan of their TV show, what about Jimmy Bond and Yves Harlow?

The Mooncrest story apparently follows Sera a newly minted Paladin of Mooncrest who meets Pirotase and together they uncover a conspiracy. All of the relationship/dialogue pieces is then between these two set characters rather than the Bio-way of multiple companions to make a party from. I'm guessing that's where the "A story of sisterhood" bit comes from.

Today I'll mention two Filipino artists. First is the legendary Nestor Redondo: Redondo, who passed away in 1995, was already a big star (thanks in part to books like DARNA, with Mars Ravelo) in the Phillipenes before starting to work in the US. I'd love to see collections of his work translated and released in English from his early days. The second is the inimitable E. R. Cruz Cruz was a highlight of a lot of 1970s horror, war and mystery comics; his style is unmistakable.

I only recall one book called "Dago"; written by Robin Wood with Alberto Salinas as the first artist and Carlos Gomez as the second. Not sure if that's the same book or not. I believe it has not been translated into English, but I think it has been translated into Spanish (or started in Spanish and was translated into Italian, not sure which).

Foster's one of the greats, alright. I had him earmarked for reference as there are several US Comic strip artists like Foster worth mentioning.

Sony leaks of mails from Ike Perlmutter: http://www.vulture.com/2015/05/marvel-ceo-not-so-hot-on-female-superhero-movies.html To be fair to Mr. Perlmutter, the context of the email is unknown so it could be a misreading of the intent that's led to the scuttlebutt. I tend to not care about the gender of the protagonists; story/storytelling is ultimately going to be what's important. I think Marvel should have capitalized on Black Widow's popularity for a solo film. Instead they're hedging their first solo female hero by making it tie heavily into the existing mythology (since the Kree have factored into AoS and GotG).

Scuttlebutt is the bigwig for marvel doesn't think female starring super hero films will succeed. He supposedly had to be coerced to allow them to slate Capt Marvel

Actually Dougray scott said yes to wolverine. It was the overruns that mckellan alludes to on mi2 that forced scott to drop the part, as he'd already been filming mi but it's filming originally was not supposed to coincide with xmen, as I recall

I think you also have to remember that some people will support Trump simply because he is someone who could fund his campaign by himself; people see him as someone who isn't influenced by outside special interests or having to submit to the party line, play nice, or otherwise engage the Republican leadership if he doesn't want to.

Frank Castle/The Punisher was originally designed by writer Gerry Conway who drew a costume sketch, John Romita, Sr. fleshed the design out and Ross Andru drew his first appearance. For today, I give you a different Frank, UK Artist Frank Bellamy: Known for revitalizing Dan Dare, work in Eagle comics and TV Century 21, as well as the newspaper strip "Garth" and loads of illustrations, book covers and such. Passed away in 1976

There's actually East Coast fault lines, one (New Madrid Seizmic Zone) that is around New Madrid, Missouri and one (Eastern Piedmont Fault Zone) that's in the middle of South Carolina, IIRC. Occasionally the South East feels earthquakes from these (although most are so small to never be noticed). New Madrid I think is the most active. Nothing like the Pacific coast, though.

And Burmese pythons.

Actually, from what I recall of my time living in California, California has a lot of fairly conservative towns and cities...and then a few super liberal cities like LA. A state doesn't hold a referendum that ends up being in favor of banning gay marriage (even if said ban is struck down by the courts disregarding the will/tyranny of the majority) by being super liberal. Jokes based on perceptions aren't funny if you point out the perception is wrong. You killed that joke in its prime. You monster. Sorry: you're not the first one I've come across to make comments about California's "apparent" "overwhelming" liberalism, so when it comes up, I can't help but similarly comment... Joke. Killer. Yeah California isn't the super liberal state that its perception is. Shockingly Georgia isn't full of Banjo playing hillbillies either. And Texas isn't oil wells and cowboys and people fighting Mexico at the Alamo.
