    Fallout 3 won Overall Game of Show, Best RPG, and Best Console Game from IGN. Additionally, Fallout 3 won Best of the Best award from UGO, Best RPG and Best PC Game from GameSpot, Best Overall RPG of E3 2007 from RPG Fan, Best Role Playing Game and Best Xbox 360 Game from Advanced Media Network, and more.

    Who the fuck was in the board of examiners? Todd Howard and Pete Hines? Or Santa Claus' fairy helpers?

    And there is nothing anyone can do about this. FOblivion will sell and every journalist will "love" it. Bethesda can do a really retarded design decision, such as complete level scaling, but this will go ignored.

    The futily of our attempts is infuriating.

    Todd doth protest too much.

    Opening line of VD's Oblivoin review? Is that wanker calling him out?

    I'm sure the 4 women on the team enjoy being 8's after a lifetime of being a 3.

    Calis: What the fuck is up with the site after the move? I can't quote a post most of the time, the link takes me to the forums page. Then I have to go back to the foum and then click the quote button. Is this some special php hack to drive me away? ;)

    Quite correct. If I recall correctly, he did in fact say "role-playing, to me, is riding around on a horse and killing things". BIG DIFFARENCE GUYZ.

    No, you compared humor in your "Fallout" to Jackass. :roll:

    The guy with the "H" hat standing/crouching in front of Todd is avatar worthy!

    Here it is, so blame Game Informer, the gaming magazine which Bethesda has decided to grant two exclusives in a row to.

    I can't seem to find our dear friend Pete in this pic, where is he? I miss his lovely mug.

    Also, check out the guy that's behind the dude next to the nerdy looking guy to the right. He's secretive, maybe scared to become a target of the Fallout fans? :P

    Most likely about 3/4 of the team are artists who have no say in the game with Todd with complete control. It's todds game not the teams. You can tell in some of the peoples eyes that they had buttsex with both todd and pete at the same time. Look at the guy in the top right with the sunglasses, you can tell he was buttfucked.

    BTW, IGN says The Witcher is the best PC RPG: http://pc.ign.com/articles/806/806820p2.html

    So F3 is the best RPG, but The Witcher is a better PC RPG according to the good folks from IGN. Hm.

    "Hey guys, just a quick comment. Fallout 3 was not at the show on PC and using our guidelines for voting, we couldn't give it Best PC Game. It actually would have won the award had it been there."

    So it's mere technical details that are keeping Fallout 3 from winning each and every award, basically.
