See? The real name for this thread should be "Fallout 3 sucked and shouldn't have been made" instead of what you wrote. Obsidian = Interplay + Fallout = Bethesda.

I beg to differ with you, I am happy that Bethesda continued Fallout and thjat they have brought their gaming mechanics to Fallout. I recognize that there is a very deep and immersive storyline in the previous Fallouts that is not matched with Fallout 3 but I find that battle system boring as hell and what Bethesda did with Fallout 3 was taking that atmosphere and putting a battle system I could like (coming from someone who has been playing since the Super Nintendo and who is not a #1 fan of FPS).

Now that Obsidian and some of the people who used to work with the original Fallout are behind Fallout New Vegas we may see great things with them building up from that which Bethesda did.

You don't have to agree with me. Our opinions can exist at the same time. This is more like a space to express myself and enjoying while at it without having that asshole Ausir getting in conversation and abusing of his powers as administrator in trying to create the illusion that his OPINION (OPINION) is more valid than that of the rest. God, that guy is an asshole.

Just face the truth dude. Obsidian is only a slightly above average developer who mostly get to make second-rate expansions. Kinda like what Treyarch was to Infinity Ward.

I am sure it will show in Fallout Vegas too. It will not reach Fallout 3 level of quality and reviews.

I bet they had their second team develop Alpha Protocol the while main team is making Fallout Vegas.

Fallout 3 was great but it was so damn depressing .

the only people you can trust these days for reviews are actual gamers on youtube. some are credible, not always but theyr better and less bias then gamespot and ign, i listen to their reviews but dont look at the score.

Gears 2 single player was good...when you were allowed to actually control the character and play. It kept stopping every 30 seconds to have in game cut scenes or story moments which were almost insulting peoples intelligence. Horde mode was solid and I spent most of my time playing that...otherwise SP was way better in Gears 1. Gears 2 only picks up with solid chunks of gameplay in the last 2 chapters. For the first 6 hours its army this, dig this, worm this, maria that...blah blah blah.

As shitty as werehog levels were, Sonic Unleashed had meaty gameplay moments that were challenging, which is what I want in a game. Some of those later Sonic levels kicked my ass so hard(Ps360 version)... Not to mention you could skip in game cut scenes...

Not saying Sonic Unleashed is a better game than gears 2. Just that I enjoyed it more as I really don't care for story and "visuals" in most games.

Yeah. I would've gone insane without the radio.

How was it depressing??

Please no spoilers as I haven't finished the main quest.

Well, I personally don't know anything about the game but I went to destructoid (My favorite review site after VGC) to see what they gave it. If destructoid gave it a 2, I believe the game is that bad.

"I haven't played Alpha Protocol yet, but I'm sure it will be a pretty good game that isn't as flawed as critics make it out to be"

Gave up reading right there. Telling people who have played it how it should be when you havent? Interesting outlook on life there
