hell mf yeah thats what i've been waiting for

EDIT: ok maybe not, the third dlc isn't on it..GAY!

DominusRebellis5482d ago

Wow it must be sooooo hard for these yanks to port the DLC onto a Bluray disc, guess the're still stuck with DVD mindset. Retards!

BWS19825482d ago

have to do with an entire nation being condemned to such a label?

I have a PS3 and PSP and love it, and Microsoft often annoys me, oh, and I'm a proud American. Stop stereotyping, that's the kind of arrogance that the US is seemingly always labeled with, and you don't see me being that way. Think a little bit, we're not all a bunch of 360 fanboys, despite the misrepresentation found on this site....

Blanket statements are naive, be above that please.

DominusRebellis5482d ago

Good for you, no one cares that you're "proud american". Yank is what americans are called around the world. British people are Brits, Australian people are Aussies, Americans are yanks. Oh but being the "proud american" you are I can safely say that you probably haven't even left your country to know what different people are called. Get a life, better yet shove it and go suck on a bell-end...if you know what that is.

"Entire nation being condemned"? Are you kidding me? Wow..I can't believe how narrow minded you are to interpret "yank" as something that serious. Lay off the games and get around the world

BWS19825482d ago (Edited 5482d ago )

I wasn't offended by "Yanks," I've heard that before many times and it isn't offensive, I was commenting on your "retards" comment as well as your presumptive attitude towards the personality traits of Americans "preferring DVD9 instead of Blu-ray". Try reading your post, then mine.

So now suddenly you know all about my history of global travel and your pretentious attitude towards other nations makes ME the narrowminded one? Wow, what astute capacities you're wielding. Apparently because I'm patriotic, I've never left my nation, what logic...

Good luck with that tunnel vision, buddy.

thereapersson5482d ago

You complain about Americans having sh1tty attitudes, and you display one of the most xenophobic comments I've seen in quite some time. What are you doing posting this crap here in the first place? This neither the time nor the place for such animosity and sentiments.

I agree that that's just what Americans are called, same as Brits, etc. But there's no need to react in such a manner!

BWS19825479d ago

he chose that element of hostility, because he didn't even read my post right. Saying one is proud of their nationality isn't pompous, saying you're better because of that nationality is, and I did the former. I'm not an elitist, but I guess stereotyping prevails sometimes.

On topic, I have pretty much written off getting Fallout on the PS3 now, because of all I've heard. I'll get it for PC I guess, since it'll be cheap and look best.

I wonder when bethesda will inevitably release a "Game of the year" edition for the PS3 with all the packs on it, like they did with the oblivion for the PS3 - after saying the DLC wouldn't come to the PS3.

Not that it matters to me, i bought it on the 360 after hearing about all the bugs on the PS3 version - though i didn't spend much time on it, i'll have to get back it.

Trebius5482d ago

I own the ps3 version...and I didnt see any bugs...aside from the terrible animations and rare "stuck between rock and hard place" moments.

Bethesda pisses me off...I was considering getting the PC version but got the PS3 one instead...wouldnt have done that if I'd known it wouldn't be supported...fukcing dikcheads. Whatever tho...I lose this round...

But I just wont support their next release, along with the rest of the pissed off ps3 owners.

BLuKhaos5482d ago

Seeing that the PS3 ver might as well not exist,go ahead and download the PC torrent since you already paid for Fallout 3.

Superted20075482d ago

No thanks Bethesda I am still gonna hit the torrent sites and grab ur overpriced DLC bugg ridden mess.

ps3gamerkyle5482d ago

How hard is it to put the DLC on a Blu-ray?

They'll greatly increase their profit margins if they actually did a good, reasonably priced DLC set for the PS3.

Cheeseknight285482d ago

It's not really programmed for the PS3 yet, they can't just stick it on a disk and ship it out. It has to be recreated specifically for the PS3 first.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

ChasterMies3d ago

Some of these low paid video game “news” writers weren’t born before 2007.

just_looken3d ago

Here here

Those that were around before 2000's i am sure are like me that think we entered a world of non readers or those that follow without question.

I can not wait to see fallout 3 a goty game even though it was about water with non content until you add the dlc/updates then you got the performance/crashing

CrimsonWing693d ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker3d ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing693d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

Gameseeker_Frampt3d ago

Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.

2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.

just_looken3d ago

It still amazes me we got over 7 rockstar games ps2/ps3 but 3 for the ps3/ps4/ps5

Dragon age 1-3 and mass effect 1-3 in 7ish years what a generation.

Now is the Best Time to Get This Incredible RPG Bundle on Steam

If you are looking for an awesome RPG, look no further. Steam is offering a significant discount on its Fallout Franchise Bundle.

SimpleSlave4d ago

"You can get all Fallout games in a bundle at a significant 20% discount on Steam. Individually, all these games add up to $244.91. With the discount, you can get them all for $195.91. That is $49 less than the original price. Quite a significant discount for such a popular franchise."

😊 😂 🤣 😐 - But why?

Just wait for a sale and get most if not all of it for a fraction of that price.

20% off...lol

Tacoboto4d ago

The games were just on a real sale over the last week or two for the show promotion. Fallout 4 was $10, 3 was $5, NV was cheap as heck too.

So what the heck is this

Inverno4d ago

The original games have been given out for free by Amazon for GOG and Epic, 76 is free now on Amazon if you have prime, Epic has also given out new Vegas for free and 4 has gone down to pretty cheap prices. 194 bucks is a total ripoff when you can get these games individually for less. Don't forget cd keys might sell em for a dollar less at times too. Come on man, us cheapskates won't touch anything near or above 100 lolz

isarai4d ago

Bro that's a ridiculous ripoff are you kidding me? 🤣

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast5d ago

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood5d ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK5d ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

anast4d ago

The game went downhill at Fallout 3's release. This is when they started to cut corners.

gold_drake5d ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.

anast4d ago

Usually, you have good comments but this isn't one of them. It just rides the mob. We can do both condemn the actions and not let them use it for other things.

I can say I received a death threat and everyone needs to shut up. People are not honest and will use horrible things to their advantage.

Armaggedon5d ago

Not all games “look” current.

anast4d ago

Their games always look like the gen before it.

Armaggedon4d ago

Yeah, but thats not the result of laziness, incompetence, or a bad engine. Thats what happens with their type of open world games. Its hard for people to find a point of comparison because no one makes games like Bethesda does.

gold_drake4d ago

mh ok thanks, i still think ur wrong in this mate.

anast4d ago

No problem. I'm not here to convince you. I'm only stating an actuality. What your words do if we look at them like events.
