    I'm not sure how well Fallout would apply to an MMO...but a large scale(larger than FO3 obviously) wasteland? Hell yes, sign me up.

    Though there should be a player limit to servers to keep it wastelandy. Instead of a wasteland....covered with people. :|

    @ThisCharmingMan: That's the only thing I see that would make it strange.

    That, and it seems difficult to scavange in a world full of people...maybe there'd be a character limit, and EACH CHARACTER would have their own finds?

    meaning, each character has every item ont he map available to collect, like in Fallout 3. Even if someone else got it, you can still get it, for your character. That way everybody can search for leftovers, there's no strangeness going on with respawning leftovers...

    And then you can use raiders and enemies to get extra stuff. I think that would work nicely. #fallout

    So this is alpha type stuff yeah? cos "eww icky icky" comes to mind.

    Also this could bomb bad. I think many current Fallout fans will of come from Bethseda's crack at the IP and be expecting something that plays out like FO3.
    But we'll see, but unless interplay have pulled in a fair few new elements from FO3, it's not gonna do so great.

    I could be too excited but the headline made me think "Fallout for iPhone!" so I read the whole article. We got teased. Oh you editor at Kotaku!

    For the record, if Fallout came out for iPhone, I'd buy it in a second. #fallout

    I kind of hope they start moving to droid. Android based phones are getting more aesthetically pleasing and, at least if Sony's next phone works out, pretty damn cool all around. Really, I like tactile feedback and some of those 'droid phones offer that.

    Hell, some of them have those little touch pads on the QWERTY slide outs that could operate as a right analog with good ol WASD movement. #fallout

    Doom and Wolf3D both have great controls for iPhone FPSes. Of course, that's not saying much, but honestly, the only issue I have is that my hands are too big for the device. Otherwise, not an issue. #fallout

    I hate those iPhone virtual analog sticks developers try to do. On the other hand, I liked the controls on Doom Ressurection a lot.. it's good to see that Carmack is still trying to improve controls on the iPhone. I'm curious to see what he's solution for Quake will be. #fallout

    In reply to Bethesda Sues Interplay Over Fallout Trademark Infringement
    Not at all. Interplay had been sitting on the rights to the Fallout IP for years and not doing anything with it. Bethseda bought the rights fair and square, release Fallout 3 to critical and commercial fame and now Interplay suddenly wants to sell Fallout games like its the thing to do (and that I bought on Steam, thanks!)? Interplay you FAIL! What happened to them? They owned the '90's on the PC and now they're just scrapping by.

    Bethseda will win this case and I'm actually sincerely sad to say that this will be the end of Interplay...unless they drop a killer new version of Clayfighter or something? I kid.

    Bethesda is so fucking full of shit, Fallout 1 & 2 is infinitely better than the shitty fallout 3. I only wish Bethesda the worst of luck for the future.

    Interplay has all my support, independently of what they did in the past !

    @OverGod: are you insane? Fallout 1 and 2 better than Fallout 3? Well everyone is entitled to their opinion. Don't get me wrong, I bought Fallout Triology from Steam the second I saw it as I did play through those games back in the day. Great games to be sure but Fallout 3 was a work of straight genius and one of the best games released in the last 10 years or so.

    @Givafuk: Fallout 1 and 2 were much better than Fallout 3 in all but production values. The writing was miles beyond Fallout 3, the combat system required careful thought, there were more quests and items and you could have a much bigger impact on the game world. As RPGs go, FO1 and 2 are superior.

    Not to say that Fallout 3 is a bad game. Quite the contrary. However, the writing was extremely poor (par for the course with Bethesda, unfortunately), the voice acting that wasn't Malcolm McDowell, Liam Neeson or Erik Dellums was total cack (even though there was more of it) and the combat was nothing special.

    I think you guys are missing the big picture here. Interplay is asserting that Fallout Tactics be considered on equal ground as Fallout 1 and 2. We as gamers can not let this stand!
