I haven't even looked in this thread in months, but that statement right there made it totally worth it today.

1Up - E3 Live Demo of Fallout 3

they explain that the junk you load into the gun causes damage based on weight, so the teddy bear could have only done like 1hp dmg or something but the character that Todd is playing with has Bloody Mess, so the 1hp death results in a critical death animation.

The bits where they ask Todd about whether you can become a mutant like how in TES you can become a vampire, and he says that they considered it but decided it made it too much like TES with the "magical" or "superpowery" feel-- BUT that they are thinking of doing it for future games. (The thought of a Fallout 4 makes my knees shake)

Just as long as they get the next Elder Scrolls out the door first. I've done just about everything there is to do in Oblivion, and I'm gettin fidgety

Oblivion oschmidion.

Is anyone still playing TF2?

Does anyone play Civilization 4 with the Beyond the Sword Expansion? Its been my gaming obsession lately.

Really looking forward to DOW2, D3, Demigod, Darkfall...and a few others.

[100_Percent_Juice]

TF2 is one of my favorite games. However, I do not have it for PC.

[JonnydaJibba]

I have it on my 360. It certainly looks neat.

[100_Percent_Juice]

^Do you play your orange box at all?

[JonnydaJibba]

Yeah sometimes. I've finished EP 1 and am on the very last part of EP 2 but I keep dying. I'm playing through HL2 as well. I've already played through it but not on the 360. Finished Portal as well. TF2 is ok but I can't play it for very long. Too fast paced for me and I can't stand those fucking turrets.

Once you play Fallout 3 I'm guessing you will forget all about Oblivion.

I won't be that interested to play another Elder Scrolls again if it is in Cyrodiil again (boooring). I would prefer that the next Elder Scrolls game picks another part of Tamriel to visit, or several spots (or revisit Morrowind).

Turrets - go spy and disrupt them.

Just an FYI. At walmart there is a little clearance looking rack by electronics and they are selling a 12 month xbox live gold pack with headset and camera + 200ms points for $40. It's a pretty good deal so I picked one up.

How much does that usually run?

[100_Percent_Juice]

$79. A 12 month card alone is $50 at gamestop.

[JonnydaJibba]

Dang that is a good deal. It's $50 for just a year membership.

I think its a mix. I'm PC, PS3 and Wii based.

Still can't play FPSs on consoles.

I can't stand playing fps's on the consoles.

I've got PC, Wii, PS3, 360 available...I use my pc the most and the wii second most.

[JonnydaJibba]

I cry when I play FPS's on PC's cuz it's sooooooo much easier. But I do fine on consoles.

Todd Howard said that they plan on visiting a new location with each installment. They've done the Iliac Bay (Hammerfell and High Rock coastlines), Summerset, and Morrowind, so I'm hoping for Skyrim or a Valenwood/Elsweyr combo next time.

I would like Elsweyr, but the others don't really interest me much. The Black Marsh would be pretty cool too.

I have a PC, Wii, and PS2, and use them in that order.

I use my Wii, 360, PC, PS2, and N64 pretty much the same amount... not very often.
