this game looks really cool, and i dont even play a lot of rpg's, the only one i've ever played was oblivion on ps3, so this shouldnt be to big of a drawback

MK_Red6548d ago

I seriously pray the they make everything and everyone killable since that was a big part of fun with original Fallout. One time, you play as a good person and help everyone and fight bad guys. Next time you play as a evil person an ally yourself with bad ones. The 3rd time, you make a strong character, go out and kill every living being in your path for ultimate negative Karma and a ton of bad/evil tags and reputation.
I'm not saying killing everyone is the best and uber kool or something bad taste related, My point is that the whole point of Fallout 1&2 was the True freedom. From pure good to pure evil to pure chaos.

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

ZeekQuattro60d 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.

New Vegas and Morrowind should have been first!

Christopher68d ago

Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.

MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it.

***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***

I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.

RaidenBlack67d ago (Edited 67d ago )

Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.

RaidenBlack67d ago (Edited 67d ago )

Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.

FTLmaster68d ago

Got a soft spot for Fallout 3, so I'd be down to play this.

-Foxtrot68d ago

It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.

They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.

Would love a complete remake or sequel with enough resources

Abnor_Mal68d ago

The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.

Yui_Suzumiya68d ago (Edited 68d ago )

I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.

They are only remaking their games that have been streamlined.
