    Why is this site so split about Fallout 3?

    To me the game was about "EXPLORATION" being in a sandbox. But there was next-to-nothing to see, do, to find if you searched hard-enough. There was nothing.

    Fallout New Vegas - basically the same as Fallout 3

    They didn't have to set in in New Vegas, they could've set it in say "China" or "Japan" and it would have looked completely different to the wasteland.

    Video games as art. Shadow of the Colossus: the game that started it all

    There's a ton of videogames pre-SOTC that you could name as being more art than videogame.

    Fallout New Vegas - basically the same as Fallout 3

    Fallout 1/2 have the excuse that they didn't have multi-million dollar budgets. And you don't recall, because you don't want to. There have been many similar complaints of sequels like these for 10 years or more.

    Fallout New Vegas - basically the same as Fallout 3

    No, what's wrong with the industry is developers who make half-assed or even quarter-assed games. When 95% of the games released we really could do without, it's not helping the industry's respectability. Once in 10 years you may get a videogame that can compete with the best movies in...

    Fallout New Vegas - basically the same as Fallout 3

    We want the game to at least sound AND look different for it to be considered anything other than an expansion pack. "Left 4 Dead" to "Left 4 Dead 2" is a great example from this generation of gaming of what should've been an expansion pack released as a full game.

    Fallout New Vegas - basically the same as Fallout 3

    It is basically the same, judging from the videos out there. In response to a lot of posts here that it looks the same because it has "the same engine" this is bollocks. A game with say, "Mario Galaxy's Engine(I like using Galaxy as an example for almost anything in gaming)" can...
