If you thought seeing the Imperial City in Oblivion was a 'wow' moment, odds are you'd be mesmerized for hours by a ball of tinfoil.

Does going "wow, THIS is the capital of the continent spanning empire? It's so small?!" count?

That's the only appropriate 'wow' response. It certainly was the one I had.

There are only 2 things that could make this game more retarded: Nods to either global warming or 2012 Steampunk Mayans.

You have all been warned. Time to invest in lead-plated diapers.

EDIT: The end is 'nigh, on the horizon Doom lurks in wait, kittens will be slaughtered, puppies will be devoured, etc, etc. Just to clarify.

Come to think of it, what they said is true, I am blown away, they have shattered any dellusiion I might have had of the so called "Fylnn effect" exisiting. These people can't be smarter then the last generation...

Shutup guys. Fallout 3 is going to so awesome. I crapped my pants when I read that article. The game sounds so cool.

I heard that in Fallout 3 you can hotkey multiple buildings and respec your skills and also pirating is not stealing because the dictionary does not say so.

When and where are your impressions going to appear?

I'm working on the game's translation to Polish. I'll probably post it in various forums on the release day.

Pirating is not stealing because niggers don't do it.
Pirating is not stealing because nothing is removed from the inventory.

But if you are caught, guards from everywhere will chase you tirelessly and nobody will buy your stolen goods.

I wonder why he's not allowed to tell about the dialogues. Most will probably turn out to be not much more than Oblivion's dialogues. Probably the amount of choice in a Bioware RPG, where you have multiple options but all lead to the same result, with the only difference that they're horribly written and even more horribly voice-acted.

EDIT:
Oh, and because Fallout 3 is oh-so-humourous, the dialogues will contain a lot of un-witty one-liners that nobody older than 8 years will find funny.

Even the devs are not allowed to discuss the game in their own forum by the higher-ups, what makes you think a mere translator would be?

They don't even give any screens probably out of fear that people will want to see them hanged as before with Oblivion and their blatant lies. Surely, not giving any information at all is a way to prevent a mob of angry people :roll:

Eh, at least if the forums will be fun to read even if the game is complete shit.

Is that really a mudcrab? It looks a bit like that crab-monster from the FO3 preview.
