Hey, if you're hyping something for no real reason, might as well hype it in all the wrong categories.

 

[Kingston]

Too. many. buzzwords. on. magazine. cover.

Can't.... stand... it.

 

[Gragt]

Yeah, that reminds me why I avoid the gaming press now.

 

[MaskedMartyr]

Is it me or is Indie Games the new buzzword now?

 

[The Vanished One]

Apparently Fallout 3 is a shooter

But a free-form one.

*** BREAKING NEWS ***

Apparently Fallout 3 is a shooter

 

[elander_]

Professionalism and honesty wins for a change.

 

[garren]

Those shooter fans are gonna get real disappointed when they realise it's got all that non-shooter 'crap' in it

 

[Shoelip]

I could care less about F3. They have something on Far Cry 2, and Malaria! Naw probably bullshit. They wouldn't be able to think of a way to make malaria fun.

 

[luckyb0y]

Screw malaria. What about zebra?

 

[GeneralSamov]

The magazine's got bloom.

 

[Nightjed]

uuuh, cel-shaded prince of persia ? ... i still think Sands of times was the best one of the "3rd generation"

at least i hope they do something fun with the Crysis engine in Farcry2, but what the hell is this about malaria ?

The magazine's got bloom.

i noticed some around the words "Mass Effect" and "epic"

I've got that issue and I do remeber reading something about Malaria being in FC2 as a gameplay element. I think it was something about being out for a long time with no meds affecting your ability to shoot.

Of course there's a significant chance I just failed at interpreting some amazingly unfunny joke.

They're just after some cheap hardcore recs.

 

[Erzherzog]

Since when are Paradox and Stardock indie developers?

 

[deuxhero]

Why are you acting like this is news? we knew that since Bethesda bought Fallout.

 

[POOPERSCOOPER]

The person in that photo has some god damn retarded shaped thumbs. It's like they are fat but also too small.

Its because each time you mock Bethesda/Fallout 3/Oblivion you get 15 RPGCodex Achievement points.

 

[MetalCraze]

shit Ubi bought the whole 24 page preview for FC2?
smells bad - usual

 

[Trash]

Seriously, it would probably be for the best. Put old yeller to rest kids, the mutt earned it.

It's me and that's probably distortion of the shitty lens on the mobile.

 

[Zakhal]

Som of the gaming magz have always been exceptionally trashy. I remember reading one UK one back in 1989 and I simply couldnt believe the stuff that was written in it. The reviews and articles were so bad I thought the people who had written used drugs or something*. They tried to be funny but stuff they wrote was somthing no sober person would laugh at. The pictures were pretty though and the cover shiny.

*Later on I read that these "journalists" often get liquired up by the gaming companies in fancy parties and stuff. So perhaps they really were using somthing.

 

[Dark Matter]

Hm, you think you could give us a summary of all relevant info in the FC2 preview? Would be greatly appreciated.

 

[JarlFrank]

What the fuck is a "Leap-em-up"? They call Prince of Persia that way, but I never even heard this terminology. Last time I checked those games were "Action Adventures".
