I start to become a bit desperate, so here is my question:

 

If Bethesda kills Fallout 3, will you buy the title from them?

 

Please?

 

Pretty, pretty please?

 

I even give to you some cash to help in it then! ;)

 

 

Paraphrasing Dan Spitzley:

And no Fallout game is complete without Scott Everts!

 

:)

 

So yeah, I would like to see ScottE working on a new Fallout game, or read some dialog by Huggies, his lines in van Buren are awesome, or poke Sawyer and Fergus a bit more ("That's not canon! You need more sleep!") , even if it was a handheld Fallout Advance: Tactics game, or a spiritual successor Bioshock style.

 

But the reality is if they tried to make a RPG then it had to be a Next-Gen simplified game for consoles, since it's all everyone can do these days, and that is already covered. And Bethsoft will stick with the Fallout games for themselves anyway, this is just academic.

Nobody understands how winning the lottery works. If I win a million dollars in the lotto, they don't give me a million dollar check, besides the big novelty ones that you can't cash. They give me $4,166.66 every month for 20 years. But when people win a million dollars they are naturally inclined to live like millionaires, so they'll buy a few new houses or a collection of classic cars, and thus quickly dive into a situation where the $4,166.66 they get every month can't even begin to cover the interest on the debt they've accrued. So if that happens, usually what will happen to me is a company will approach me and offer to buy my $1,000,000 in increments for however much it will take to pay off the debt, or however much the company feels they can get away with, in a bulk sum. You can't win the lotto and buy a multi-million dollar game franchise. You couldn't even do it over 20 years if you're living on your winnings.

You can opt for a lump sum outside the tax-stealing US of A.

In Iowa there is the Powerball lottery and the Hotball Lottery. You can either do the 20 year increment or take the cash all at once. If yo do the 20 year increment you get the whole amount, but if you decide to take the cash and run, you get roughly half the winnings right there and then.

Murphy's Law of Computer Gaming: The listed minimum specifications written on the box by the publisher are not the minimum specifications of the game set by the developer.

actually what sand posted is true in most states. Lotto groups are able to entice their winners because the sods are greedy and think more money later is better than half of it now.

 

Still half of the 100 million jackpot kicks so much ass.
