By Oblivion "games" they could mean Oblivion, Knights of the Nine, and whatever other expansions came out.

They could, but thinking of expansion packs that require the original to play as games in their own right would be just another compelling reason to ignore any "wisdom" the author tries to impart.

This whole Megaton quest just feels incredibly unnecessary (not to mention dumb). It's like something that was specifically made for the previews, a sort of a "take a look at what awesome things we can make with our engine". I'm having a hard time seeing how this fits into the game (Fallout setting accuracy aside). If your karma is knocked way underground by one action and you'd have trouble getting it back to neutral no matter how much you try then sorry, but that sounds stupid. Where's the moral ambiguity they talked about so much? Why are you even given such an option? Seriously, Beth, go back to your generic, dick-on-a-horse fantasy bullshit, stop screwing with things that are beyond your intellect.

When I readed the "MSN" in the title, I already knew what to expect. MSN Messenger, for example, is a kind of "next-gen IRC" where in many cases of use it's for retards to chat. Plus Microsoft is the main guilty for the "Dumbing down" phenomena, after they developed their "PC-Lite for dumbed down games for the next-gen crowd", more known as X-Box and started bribing developers to make dumbed down games for their console.

I wouldn't find it a bad idea to merge all news about "Gaming Journalists" Fallout 3 previews into a single thread, maybe with a suggestive and derogatory name, and have that NMA preview, together with Codex own previews, as the most visible ones in Codex.
