That's right, PC Gamer, one of the biggest gaming magazines around, is not fond of BoS either. Listen to this quote:

"Finally, a word about what has to be the biggest RPG disappointment so far for 2003: Interplay's announcement of a console-only Fallout game. To have Interplay finally make some noise again with this excellent franchise, and have theat news come in the form of a "darkly humorous third-person action/adventure" called Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel - for Xbox and PlayStation2 owners only - is a bit of a slap in the face for loyal fans of the PC series.
My moles are still diggin', but there's still no word of a new Fallout RPG in the works for PC. In the meantime, keep those fingers crossed, and StarCraft fans can at least telll you that you're not alone in your misery. "

So there you have it.

Harliquin Outsider Member # 120 Rate Member	posted July 06, 2003 20:13 I think it would be a great idea for them to remake fallout 2 (make it look a little sharper like tactics) then add a few more citys and towns and other cool stuff, and make it an online game like UO. that would rule! -------------------- Ying or Yang?

Well it looks ok but its so full of bugs its not worth it.

Well re-releasing Resident evil worked, except those slut whores only released it on Gamecube...i mean WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY THINKING??! WHO OLD ENOUGH TO PLAY RE OWNS A GAMECUBE FOR GODS SAKE!!

Sorry had to release the anger...deep breaths...

Anyhow, it could work, but thats not the point, we want Fallout 3!, not Fallout racing or Fallout Tennis or Fallout Monopoly..and definately not Fallout Tychoon.......no more spinoffs or cheapening the Fallout name, just a sequel. I mean if a game franchise is good you can make a lot of sequels, i mean look at Final Fantasy, there are ten of them!!

What is new is always evil, being that which wants to conquer and overthrow the old boundary markers and the old pieties; and only what is old is good. The good men are in all ages those who dig the old thoughts, digging deep and getting them to bear fruit - the farmers of the spirit. But eventually all land is depleted, and the ploughshare of evil must come again and again.

Yes yes, but please never relate Final Fantasy to Fallout again Slurry or I'll have to smite you. I loath Final Fantasy just as much as I do Starcraft, which is nearly an infinite amount. But for the timebeing I'll spare you all from my rant.

Rather, I'll just say "Bring on Fallout 3!"

And as for remaking F2, they could just make an expansion for it. That would be neat, but it would have to have the same engine and feel as F2.

Well im a big fan so we won't touch on theological differences. We both want F3 and thats all that matters. Its a bit like that me and Rob vs you and Stapes thing ages ago about whether Rap and Hiphop sucks or not.

Stapes Paragon Member # 2 Member Rated:	posted July 08, 2003 12:15 If you want to get a little technical, Rap is the same thing as Hip Hop. Hip Hop is just a snazzier name.

Really? Hip Hop is actually kinda different here, Australian Hip-Hop has its own sort of style which makes it quite distinctive from Rap.
I know its different cos I kinda like Aussie Hip Hop but I dislike American stuff intensely. Maybe its because Ebonics piss me off and there isn't any in Aussie stuff.

Stapes Paragon Member # 2 Member Rated:	posted July 09, 2003 01:34 Yeah, that is true. I never really thought about it that way. I just know that Hip Hop in the US is another word for Rap.

Scotty the Great Paragon Member # 1 Member Rated:	posted July 09, 2003 11:19 Yeah, Rap and Hip Hop are basically the same. However, I think it is more artist-based. For instance, more people would classify Eve and the Black Eyed Peas as Hip Hop over Rap, and everybody would classify Eminem and Dr. Dre as Rap and not even mention Hip Hop.

Stapes Paragon Member # 2 Member Rated:	posted July 09, 2003 12:37 No, Hip Hop is Rap. No if, ands, or buts about it. It isn't basically the same as Rap. IT IS RAP! Basically what you are saying Scotty is that Eve and the Black Eyed Peas are Rap, and Dre and Eminem are also Rap. I took a class on music genres my last semester of my senior year. I know what I'm talking about when it comes to music.

I know that it is one in the same; I was just trying to point out that American culture dictates what is called 'Rap' and what is called 'Hip-Hop'. Yeah, it's the same, but each are used seperately for different artists. Ugh, let's see if this makes more sense:

hip-hop or hip hop: noun
Definition: A popular urban youth culture, closely associated with rap music and with the style and fashions of African-American inner-city residents.
rap: noun
Definition:A form of popular music developed especially in African-American urban communities and characterized by spoken or chanted rhyming lyrics with a syncopated, repetitive rhythmic accompaniment.

It's sort of like the whole "soda" vs. "pop" thing. Each are exactly the same, but each are used. It's basically the same thing with this. Ugh, I hope that makes sense.

Yeah, it is confusing (I even confused myself a few times while typing the last post), but it's really just a deal with location. If the person raps mainly to appeal to the lower class or about the lower class of society, then it's classified as rap. If the rap is aimed more towards urban city kids that have pretty nice lives, it's classified as hip-hop. This get's sort of vague, though, because some are aimed sort of at both, and sometimes the rapper is popular in both areas. However, if you listen to the lyrics, you should be able to figure it out.

Sure i really want fallout 3 to come out...and i never said that. Hell i'll enjoy that as much as the next fallout fiend

But what i was getting at was fallout 2 that looks a little more updated (like fallout tactics...i don't mean the engine for it...just the better looking characters and stuff)

and make it online where thousands of people can train and do what they want and proper role play in fallout with other players

but i won't let you respond to that because i can imagine you misunderstand me.

Scotty the Great Paragon Member # 1 Member Rated:	posted July 12, 2003 14:06 Yeah, if they did remake F2 they could do a lot of improvements. However, I didn't necessarily like the feel of Tactics. It seemed to be overkill on the updates and lost some of the feel that the previous games had. As for multiplayer, it would be nice.

I'm not even going to go on with what I was going to post about Rap and Hip-Hop. The reason I'm not going to post it is because you will get all bent out of shape even though I probably know more about it than you do.

As for making a remake of F2, I don't think it would be that cool. Interplay doesn't listen to the people, and if they tried to remake it, they wouldn't listen to any of the Fallout fans and they would butcher it just like you guys think they are butchering BoS.

It could work, but i agree with Stapes, Interplay are a bunch of capitalist pigs and they would mess it up in a mad rush for quick bucks.

Hrmph, Stapes relax. I'm just saying that there is a very slight difference besides just the name. That's what I was trying to explain. Ugh, fuck it, there's no need to continue this here; we each have our own viewpoints that are not going to change.

Next, Stapes, I advise you to watch yourself. Don't try to belittle me. If you want to retort, do so and post something useful. Don't say "I know more than you about it, anyway, and you wouldn't be able to handle what I would say". It not only makes yourself look immature, but it also can be considered insulting. Such comments are unwelcomed here, regardless of who they are targeted towards. If you have any such things like this to say in the future, I would advise you to say it directly to me on MSN or ICQ, or bite your tongue and keep it to yourself. The results would probably be more positive.

Lastly, for the topic, I doubt that Interplay would take the time to do a quality remake of F2. However, we still have the hopes of Van Buren actually being Fallout 3.

Harliquin Outsider Member # 120 Rate Member	posted July 13, 2003 12:02 I wonder if it would be possible to make your own new missions for fallout. That would be pretty damn cool. -------------------- Ying or Yang?

Scotty the Great Paragon Member # 1 Member Rated:	posted July 14, 2003 10:57 Yeah, that would be a nice feature. You sort of get the chance with the F2 map editor, but it doesn't really enable you to play what you create.

Ok no Flamage allowed!

Scotty is right though, any further argument would be completely pointless and damaging.
