So. I know at least some of you are Fallout fanatics. There has to be at leas a small handful.
Those of you that aren't, you've either never played the games, or are broken. See a shrink, or buy a copy of the games. The first two anyway. Tactics was terrible.
Anyway. If you're interested, the whole article can be found here
As you can see, Emil Pagliarulo is attached as the lead designer. If you're not familier with the name, you might be familier with his work. He did the Life of The Party level in Thief II, and did the miscellaneous quests in Bloodmoon, a Morrowind expansion. He also worked on Oblivion, specifically the Dark Brotherhood quests/missions (However you want to refer to them) and the Arena.
There's been so much speculation, already, about Fallout 3. I've not kept up to date with the latest rumour-mill works of art, because frankly, it's likely to ruin the game (Either by being right or being so off the mark that the game becomes the shitpile it shouldn't). I am interested by the 'thirty-thousand lines of dialogue' part. I'm wondering how rounded that figure is, and how many will be with the same characters, or how many versions of the same line come from unimportant NPC's. It's going to be interesting - Fortunately slated for a Fall 2008 release, so it's not far (At the rate my days are slipping by) off now.
There is no point to this other than my rambling about Fallout 3, incase you were wondering.

I don't care if stores are closed, or you have no spare money, just go and get them.
I'm glad they've been reletively tight lipped on the project (In comparison to say, Molyneux and the original Fable) - It should provide for a much more engaging game.
I'm hoping the story is really in depth, I'd hate to see Bethesda return to shooters and suck major balls at it.
Keep your eyes peeled for the average gamers.
Nothing's broken, it's just functioning differently.

They make Smash Brothers look like the deformed offspring of a rotten banana peel and tomaco

Those are the system requirements for Fallout. Fallout 2 is hardly much higher :B
Win:[1] Pentium 90 MHz, 16 MB RAM, 600 MB available hard disk space, DirectX compatible SVGA card, 4X CD-ROM drive, Windows-compatible mouse, Windows 95

The story is fuckin sweet ass and overall the game is fun as hell. I agree with Nirach, every respectable gamer must at least try these games. Immediately.
