Prodigy:

Or maybe before they used fallacious arguments presented as “objective facts” they didn’t even bother reading a FAQ.

Is that the only possible way someone can dislike Oblivion? Interesting.

Yeah, I assure you. Sometimes they even distort reality, it’s mesmerizing.

Killzig · 2008-09-03T05:14:45.000Z

Sweet, I’m going to have to try that out.

Prodigy · 2008-09-03T06:00:58.000Z

See Corporal Draikin, he’ll help you with your training.

I kind of canceled my preorder for this game. I’m not sure why but the latest round of videos have mutted my interest. Sure I’m still going to get it but I’m not preordering the collectioner’s edition and having it shipped over night. Sure the bobble head would of been cool but it no longer looks like it was a game that is worth $100. Not to me anyways.

Bethesda's Pagliarulo On Fallout 3 's Tone, 'Profanity Pass'

As Bethesda's Fallout 3 wraps up development, lead designer and writer Emil Pagliarulo talks to Gamasutra about finding the right tone for the game, revealing his 'profanity pass' for dialogue, "...cutting out half the profanity in the game", as pa

I really enjoy the interviews/forum Q&A that Emil participates in. Should be a good interview.

Why’s that?

Why’s that?

I was watching the mega mart video and I was no longer that excited about the game. It hit me that it wasn’t worth spending an extra $50 over the cost of the game for the collection’s edition and over night shipping.

I don’t understand why you’d pay 100 dollars for a video game in the first place.

Killzig · 2008-09-03T10:58:27.000Z

You’re paying $100 for a video game and a clock!

Unicorn_McGriddle · 2008-09-03T11:04:13.000Z

The clock is a cool extra. I play videogames and also sometimes I need to know what time it is.

Al1 · 2008-09-03T11:08:11.000Z

Plus, they changed the music.

Jason_McMaster · 2008-09-03T11:09:34.000Z

I think the game looks better than it did, actually.

Roy_Ziegler · 2008-09-03T11:09:41.000Z

Include a toothbrush and a comb and I’m sold!

Because that’s how much Phantasy Star IV cost when it came out, and it was worth every penny.

Very intersting, and far too short !

I like what Emil Pagliarulo has to say. Plus, he was a designer on Thief II, and for that will always be a god in my gaming olympus.

Does the regular collector’s edition of Fallout3 come with an extra manual? Or an extended manual? I freakin’ loved the extra manual that came with the Oblivion CE.

As a matter of fact, I think the Oblivion CE is the best CE I’ve ever bought. Great packaging (that can fit right on your DVD shelf), making of DVD, greebly coin, pseudo-leather bound history and geography book. It recalled the glory days of Origin where every box was a collector’s edition.

That link sets off the malware alert in Google Chrome… haven’t seen that before.

JPR · 2008-09-04T15:57:03.000Z

Yeah, it doesn’t like Gamasutra, and there is no obvious way to whitelist it.

It’s irritating because I have their feed in my Google Reader, and any time it tries to pull text, I get the stupid malware alert.
