O/T but this Fallout New Vegas trailer is extremely disappointing.  Such primitive graphics and animation compared to Fallout 3!

Man, this E3 thing has been epic fail.

*moody*


It looks the same as FO3 but a bit better to me.  I'm even more excited now!

Looks primitive and lame to me, but glad someone is happy.


It looks very similar to FO3, but the movement is better, and the graphics look to be better as well.  Sorry you're not happy I suppose. Both my husband and I, since watching that, are really REALLY looking forward to it.  My husband keeps going back to FO3; loves the game completely, so his expectations are very high for New Vegas.

Speaking of Spike...yesterday I saw the episdoe where everyone lost their memory (also the episode where Giles left and Tara broke up with Willow who I couldn't even feel sorry for because of just how much she deserved it) and Spike thought he was Angel. I love that show...


That ep is so funny! 

I love it too. They had a top 30 marathon on logo over the weekend, and I have to admit I tivo'd most of them. I get too much enjoyment from that show. lol.


Yeah, I watched the marathons on Logo too. Though I don't usually watch Buffy because I never get a chance to. It's a shame, because I like the series.

But...but... Chris Avellone! The writer of KotOR 2!

Well I'm excited.^_^


This is a good thing??  I have no clue about him.

But look at how the PC walks- like they have a corncob somewhere sensitive.  And the other animation and graphics look cartoonish and stick-figure-like compared to Fallout 3.  I mean, compare to this trailer from E3 2008.  I would expect that 2 years on from a big game, they'd actually improve things, not go backwards.

Question - what resolution do most of you play at? 16:9 ? I was noticing some screenshots get more picture in them than others. When I tested a game image at 4:3, there was suddenly a whole section at the bottom of the picture that hadn't been there before.


I used to play mine at 4:3 but I changed to 16:9 when I changed settings on my computer. The only things that changed was that the sides had huge black spaces.


When I was testing the new first night scene,  I was trying to figure out how some people had his whole hand on the bottom of the screen. I play at 16:9, and I only had the tips of fingers. When I switched to 4:3 (which was a little wonky on my widescreen monitor!:?) it showed the whole top of Alistair's hand.

I'm biased because I looooove Chris Avellone. If I get a chance to gush about him, I usually do. I can't watch the trailer because my computer hates YouTube right now, so I can't really pass judgement.

Spike and Giles hugged, Spike thinks his name is Randy and makes fun of it...classic! I'm watching them all on Netflix currently as I was a little young when the show was actually on.


I was in college when they started up, and we used to have weekly-buffyfests. It was pretty funny, since we were all studying for masters degrees in various science subjects, but would drop everything to watch the goings on in Sunnyvale. Guilty pleasures, I guess :P

I don't know him either... Is he the David Gaider of KotOR?

I guess I'll wait for reviews, though people in the YouTube comments are also commenting on the graphics.

Like I need more reasons to waste time in front of a screen.

I honestly don't see how anything went backwards.  I watched the two of them; they look like they're built on the same engine, yes, but no way does the New Vegas trailer look worse.

Or maybe I'm just tired and missing something.  That is possible.

He used to work for the now defunct Black Isles and works for Obsidian now. Black Isles made Planetscape:Torment and Obsidiant made my favorite game, KotOR 2. So...yes:P

I loved the show "Angel", also. In some ways I enjoyed it more, but it really depended on the season. I liked the character Angel more in later years than in early years, I felt he gained more depth as both shows went on.

I know it's a plot device but ignoring that...why on earth did the gypsies who cursed Angel only give him a soul when he was miserable? I know they wanted him to suffer and were pissed at him and all but wouldn't giving him a soul all the time be more practical? For all they knew he'd let himself get complacent and be happy and then his evil side would come out forever and all their hard work would be undone.

David B..... -drools-

But I liked him, though I really wouldn't date a guy like that in real life.

EDIT: I also liked the show, though I didn't like the fact that he was pining after Cordelia. I'm a Angel/Buffy fan.

I couldn't do it. Lyra recruited Zevran. I really thought she could kill him. But she...took over, gave him a helluva hard time, and ultimately insulted him by saying she would have him "serve her" when he refused to kill Loghain. Alistair disapproved. Grumpybutt.

Ah, I thought you were talking about the show "Angel", not the person. It was a pretty big flaw in their logic, the one moment of happiness and he's evil thing. The only thing I can think is they never thought he'd attain any that moment of happiness.

Help? After redcliffe, you can ask why alistair his his birthright. And I could SWEAR there was a line in there besides "I liked you for you, now I don't know who you are" and "Like you for you? you're kidding right" that said you DO like him and not because of his blood. What am I missing here?

Did you already start up the romance? Maybe it only shows if the romance isn't active?

I thought the "I do like you, and not because of your blood" was a romance starter line that goes away if you're romancing him already?
