The only issue I have with this cinematic is that the models of the Khans and the Vegas guy look like the talking heads from Fallout 1 and 2 graphics-wise.

Probs a response to complaints over F3's emotionless NPC's. Time will tell, still, this game looks like it will be better than F3 even it still sucks.

Apparently it's no longer available because of a copyright claim by Zenimax Media. But that's okay; I want to watch the intro when I play the actual game.

I actually liked the voice acting. Probably going to buy the inevitable Game of the Year Edition to save myself fitty bucks in DLC.

It looked a bit... stiff? And too clean. But well, it's just the intro, right? Nothing could go wrong?

You really didn't miss anything in all honesty. It'll probably be leaked again soon enough.

I think I will just wait till the game is released.



Of a side note how come every time I try typing in the quick reply really fast and I hit like the shift key to star the first letter and it makes my browser hit the back key a few times?

I dug up the intro out of morbid curiosity, and judging from it, the dialog and voice acting won't be terrible.

Saw the intro elsewhere and decided to pop in for a sec.

Can't believe they're still using the Gamebryo engine, it looks pretty shit. The whole thing rubs me the wrong way.

Played bioshock 2 recently and it had more atmosphere and story in it than all of Fo3. Was actually pretty good for a linear shooter, well written.

But this just reeks of pisspoor imagination.

I'm liking the CGI graphics, reminds me of how the were in the 90's.

I propose solidarity with System Shock fans, at least the ones at Shock and Cover, who're complaining about precisely the opposite.


Didn't like the intro, directing's all over the place. It's even worse if this is the video that's gonna take the pre-"War never changes" spot.

Other than that, I'd pretty much decided to give this game a shot, at least it will probably fix one of Fo3's many errors (writing), the rest of them I can live with on small doses. Who knows, maybe the one mode where you need water and food might turn out to be "fun", in a totally bethesdian, faff about not doing anything interesting kind of way.

Not that surprising I guess. The idea seemed like shit to me when I heard about it, but they pulled it off pretty well all considered.
Then again, I don't compare it to the System Shock series in any way, they have nothing in common in my opinion.

I guess it's because when I look at Bioshock, I just see a regular shooter with its on gimmicks and not anything close to System Shock, Deus Ex or anything else along the multiple choice/RPG-esque shooter genre.

Difference is though, even with that mentality you could never see Fo3 as a decent spin-off.

I really hope that wasn't you who deleted those posts Smiley. If so you're a fucking douchebag.

Been on #fallout, eh?

Nah I rarely delete posts, they're in the wasteland. I do edit them however, mostly to piss people off.
