Fallout 3: OXM screenshot scans and article excerpts

No Mutants Allowed has some excerpts from the OXM article of the issue that's out just now (in stands this Monday), as well as the screenshots in that article. It's not very text-heavy, and the text for the most part contains no new info and one mind-bogglingly stupid interview.

Ah, look/sounds absolutely amazing!

I've never played a Fallout game but have become really interested in this one over the last few months (mainly thanks to MK_Red), but with so many developers consentrating on multi-player, I'm having to look at other game genres to get my single-player fill!

Captain Tuttle6647d ago

If you can find copies of Fallout 1 & 2 give them a try. They're really fantastic, immersive games.

MK_Red6647d ago

Thanks mighty_douche.

Captain Tuttle speaks the truth.

Mr Playboy6647d ago

they are One of best developer, Oblivion was the game of year in 2007 for PS3 a truly masterpiece

looking forward for this game :)

Relcom6647d ago (Edited 6647d ago )

Only people who didn't play that think Oblivion was the best.

Oblivion took out all that was great about the elder scrolls series, but i think they will redeem themselves after Fallout 3.

By the way
Bethesda can you please add eyes and balls as targets to shoot at, i will miss it if its not in.

MK_Red6647d ago

True Relcom but the best TES games were both Morrowind and Daggerfall though Morro is indeed my fave. It had a unique feel in the Vvardenfel (Not sure about name).
Oblivion was indeed terrible compared to classics.

And Fallout 3 is indeed Bethesda's chance for redemption.

MK_Red6647d ago (Edited 6647d ago )

Holy moly OMG, Thanks TnS, NMA and OXM. AWesome awesome awesome. And the dog is here!!!
Reading now. I'm speechless.

PS, the STALKER feel is just awesome.

Captain Tuttle6647d ago

But remember, there can only ever be one Dogmeat. ;-)

MK_Red6647d ago

True. They shoudln't call this dog Dogmeat.
The real one, the legend can be only in one game: The legendary Fallout.

Hooby6647d ago

Hmm, I don't know any person wh0 ever found the need to repair weapons and armor fun, too bad that's still in. But I want to see these motorized warhammers I hear about...and other melee weapons.

Captain Tuttle6647d ago

I agree...take away the repair stuff and add more dialog. The one shot they showed of the speech mechanic wasn't very inspiring. Hopefully it's much more in depth.

MK_Red6647d ago

Agreed with both of you but the weapon part combining could be really fun and it kinda reminds me of Arcanium.

Also, in addition to dialogue which they should really focus on and make it deeper, I also hope that they bring back the groin shot for Vats which sadly is absent now :(

Captain Tuttle6647d ago (Edited 6647d ago )

In Arcanum you had to go back into town to get items repaired I think, which I never liked. It should be more Oblivion style, with a repair/science type skill and something similar to the hammers that have limited use at lower skill levels. The multitool would work.

MK_Red6647d ago

True but I believe the repair skill in Fallout could be used for that. And in Arcanium, the mixing / item making part was fun not the repairs.

Personally, I don't want to have a plasma refile that I have to repair but hey, let's hope for the best.

Finally, the dialogue system is kinda shown. At least it's not like Oblivion's dreaded keyword system. Hopefully the promised dialogue trees are there and are deeper than Mass Effect's.

Also, it's good to hear that those attacking Ghouls are not all of them, they are just the crazy feral ones so hopefully normal and civilized ones are still there.

OMG, Fallout + Burnout = My fave games in one! The inspiration for VATS system kills is Burnout's crash system!? Genius Bethesda, genius even though original Fallouts had really cool death animations and kinda were the same.

S.P.E.C.I.A.L = The best character design system ever! I'm always focusing on P.I.A.L or S.I.A.L.

Captain Tuttle6647d ago

And I hope they have a "Bloody Mess" perk.

MK_Red6647d ago

OMG, good call. Bubbles for you my friend.
Bloody Mess is always my main choice for trait along with Gifted.
The Sex Appeal should also return.

And let's not forget about perks. I want my Slayer dammit.

Would be nice if they had New Vegas ready as well, especially because of the show.

Hopefully this doesn't have the same performance issues as Oblivion Remastered.

cloganart129d ago

I haven't seen anything on these performance issues? What's been going on?

walken7129d ago

Probably the Unreal Engine issues, I skipped it for that reason.

Snookies12130d ago (Edited 130d ago )

Throw in all the DLC as well, like Oblivion and I'll definitely bite. I recall having one trophy left to unlock on the PS3 version with 100+ hours in my save. When my save file got corrupted, lol. Very sad day.

To be fair though, Bethesda was trash at Playstation ports anyway.

Michiel1989130d ago

all devs sucked at porting to ps3 for the first like 3 years because no one had experience with the cell architecture. Even 1st party took a long while to get proficient with it, the difference between uncharted 1 and 3 is massive for example.

Extermin8or3_130d ago

Oh oh oh I can do this too. GTA 7 will be made at some point in the future. Fallout 5 will enter development in the future too

jznrpg130d ago

Everyone there should know most gamers want New Vegas and Morrowind more than anything.

Christopher129d ago

Which is why we won't get them. Gotta keep floating "support this one and it might happen".

BlaqMagiq1130d ago

Can't wait. Won't have to go back to my PS3 to play this when it comes out.

Fallout 3 remastered on the Nintendo Switch 2 is what we deserve, not the worst Fallout game

Fallout Day's disappointing news that Fallout 4 is coming to Switch 2 is a shame, as this 17-year-old entry is more deserving of a new port.

Why exactly do you think you deserve it??

Phoenix76202d ago

Fallout 4 isn't the worst game in the franchise. It's either Fallout 76 or Fallout BOS that's the worst.

gigoran8202d ago

PC and all other modern consoles never got a remaster of 3, but obviously the switch 2 was the tipping point to make it a reality... ahuh

1nsomniac201d ago

Meh, I thought 3 was garbage. I'm not a great fan of the franchise to be fair. They're like B-Movie films, really shallow and janky. 4 was definitely one of the better ones though.

UltimateOwnage201d ago

So the article makes a snippy entitled statement and acts like that is going to encourage a publisher to give them what they want. Okay.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro389d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.
