I don't like it when people pretend that their own dumb and/or obscure opinions are the conventional wisdom or majority opinion either, but that's not what happened here.

Hmmm. Sounds very similar to someone I know.

Probably fake. The last Fallout hoax was also accompanied by a trademark.

<Irushwithscvs> I'm still playing fallout 3
<Irushwithscvs> I'm not quite sure how one person can carry 2500 10mm rounds without at least some sort of backpack or case
<Irushwithscvs> or how they don't snap their back in two
<Blanko> Shitty video game logic
<Blanko> That's how
<Irushwithscvs> well all bethesda games work on the basis that large items just disappear into your inventory
<Blanko> ok
<Irushwithscvs> but why though
<Blanko> Why not
<Blanko> It's a video game
<Irushwithscvs> how does one fit 20 battleaxes onto their person without any of them showing?
<Irushwithscvs> where do they go>?
<Blanko> Does it matter
<Blanko> It's a fucking video game for children
<Irushwithscvs> but where
<Irushwithscvs> where does it all go?
<Blanko> The cloud
<Irushwithscvs> how does 500 arrows fit into a quiver visibly showing eight?
<Blanko> Here's what I'm wondering
<Blanko> Why are you wasting your time playing shitty games
<Irushwithscvs> but I'm not, though
<infinity> this is why I prefer Atari 2600 games, they are all real
<Crudblud> Fallout 3 is a rather shitty game
<Irushwithscvs> at least its better than new vegas
<Saddam> Incorrect
<Irushwithscvs> correct
<Crudblud> >falling for it
<Saddam> Sorry
<Crudblud> Oh Saddam
<Irushwithscvs> what
<Saddam> Although you could carry unrealistically-huge loads in the first two Fallouts as well
<Blanko> Irushwithscvs is the Armond White of FES
<Saddam> Yes
<Irushwithscvs> I don't understand how fallout has fusion reactors but they only output like 5 watts
<Irushwithscvs> "oh we got the fusion reactor up and running but it can only power a few lights:
<Crudblud> I don't understand why realism is at all an issue
<Irushwithscvs> the hell kind of reactor is that
<Irushwithscvs> its not fusion
<Crudblud> It's a fantasy game
<Irushwithscvs> but its not realistic
<Irushwithscvs> and its in 2077 but it looks like 1977
<Irushwithscvs> or at least everything blew up in 2077
<Irushwithscvs> and its sometime after that point
<Irushwithscvs> does fallout have CHIM?
<Irushwithscvs> I know it doesn't have chimps
<Crudblud> I'm sure Bethesda will try to shoehorn CHIM into it at some point
<Irushwithscvs> I imagine fallout has dragon breaks too, but the dragon doesn't really like to go there
<Irushwithscvs> skyrim would have been so much easier if you ran around with a laser rifle
<Irushwithscvs> or a wazer wifle, the best laser in the game
<Blanko> Why are you rambling
<Irushwithscvs> you haven't noticed that I come in here, ramble like a looney for 5 or 10 minutes then leave?
<Crudblud> This is like Saddam lite
<Crudblud> Normally we don't pay that much attention to you
<Irushwithscvs> googled this armond white guy
<Irushwithscvs> [l]iking [a film] or disliking it is irrelevant
<Irushwithscvs> sounds more like Parsipal: Film Mode
<Blanko> The point is that he's a massive contrarian
<Blanko> He shits on good things and likes awful things
<Crudblud> Parsipal: Film Mode is literally "explosions are gay this is for children 0/10"
<Irushwithscvs> but how does one define good things and awful things
<Irushwithscvs> like you define morrowang as a "good thing" but it isn't
<Irushwithscvs> it isn't even remotely good in any sense of the word
<Blanko> See
<beerdo> :)
<Blanko> :)
<Saddam> Parsipal
<Saddam> Wait, wait, are you saying you're unaware of the retro-futuristic elements of Fallout's setting?
<Saddam> Irushwithscvs
<Irushwithscvs> so you could define me as "contrarian to blanko under specific conditions"
<Irushwithscvs> yes saddam I am completely unaware of the theme of fallout
<Blanko> Irushwithscvs: ok
<Blanko> But that's not how I'm defining it though
<Irushwithscvs> but you blanket stated that I am like him
<Saddam> Irushwithscvs: The Fallout series is set in a world based on predictions of the future from the fifties
<Irushwithscvs> If anything, you're the contrarian
<Blanko> Yes?
<Blanko> Because you are
<Irushwithscvs> anything that you say is good actually isn't
<Irushwithscvs> so I question your judgement, not mine
<Saddam> Hence the reliance on vacuum tubes and primitive technology and the abundance of fifties lounge music and whatnot
<Blanko> Of course you would
<Blanko> That's the point
<Irushwithscvs> saddam it is literally impossible for a society to have computer simulations but not discovered any type of techonology beyond a nixie tube
<Irushwithscvs> you would have to make computers the size of US states out of nixie tubes to get anywhere near the necessary power to simulate the graphical environment presented in Fallout's sims
<Saddam> It is a fanciful setting
<Irushwithscvs> yet they appear to have computers that are only mildly bigger than our own
<Irushwithscvs> fallout is just generic fiction plastering nixie tubes on things where they don't belong
<Saddam> It's almost as if these games...are unrealistic
<Irushwithscvs> at least its better than most steampunk games
<Saddam> What in God's name is "generic fiction"?
<Irushwithscvs> It drives me mad if I play a steampunk themed game that has a single fucking nixie tube anywhere in it
<Irushwithscvs> you know, generic fiction
<Irushwithscvs> you know.
<Blanko> Saddam: It's something Rushy loves saying when he's being a contrarian
<Irushwithscvs> any way the nixie tube was invented so far beyond the steam age its a complete retart move to include them in a steampunk setting
<Saddam> This is the first time I've ever seen him say that
<beerdo> eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
<Saddam> Or anyone say that, for that matter
<Irushwithscvs> might as well just have computers
<Saddam> At least "generic fantasy" makes sense
<Irushwithscvs> generic fantasy is a subtype of generic fiction
<Saddam> But what does that even mean
<Irushwithscvs> fictional settings that are used widely enough to be noted as generic
<Saddam> You're goofy
<Irushwithscvs> e.g. giant mushrooms or DEWs

Virtual backpack space, obviously. Or are you looking for an in-universe explanation? If so, be prepared for walls of text about boys eating their own semen.

Don't worry. I killed him in 3 so there's no way he's coming back.

Well yeah, in fact he was the same person who revealed there would be a new Fallout, so we've known about his role for at least a year now.

Don't worry. I killed him in 3 so there's no way he's coming back.

It might not be literally Threedog that comes back. They could easily make a new radio station character that "emulates the classic style of Threedog" or something.

It's coming to the 360 and PS3 too, which means it's going to be unoptimized junk.
