Quantcast



For me Fallout 3 was one of those games I only picked up because everyone else was talking about it. At first I hated it but eventually I fell in love. Obsidian owes me a rather large chunk of my life back. As you would naturally expect, I am very excited for Fallout New Vegas and my hands-on time here at gamescom can only be described as a fix for a drug addict. 

Josh Sawyer, Project Director of Fallout New Vegas, takes some time to talk to me about the new and more in-depth customization, the importance of moral decisions and how alliances will effect your reputation within the waste land. The game looks fantastic and I know that I look forward to locking myself into a dark room for two weeks when it finally launches on October 19th, 2010.

Good interview. New Vegas is one of those rare titles where listening to details about it excites me more than the actual footage shown so far. Hopefully the gameplay and atmosphere is good enough to overcome the aging engine.

are they going to show any footage for gamescom? I noticed that they took down the shaky cams for quakecon, so i figure they might be saving something. cute haircut btw

I wouldn't call it a waste. Not exactly the nicest thing to say in front of a dev.

Oh wow. What a screw up that was. I'm having one of those moments when I'm embarrassed on behalf of someone else. Although Sawyer's reply was good.

Everything sounds good with New Vegas. Not sure I want the weapon modding though, I suppose it'll depend on how it's done.

No offense to you, but this interview was embarrassing.

How is that not offensive?

Still lulz though.

They indeed do need more of a presence at London.

Keep it up Hollie.

Nothing says good morning like a quick browsing of comments after 3 hours sleep. I know you only hurt me because you love me.

Sadly Fallout suffered LastInterviewOfTheDay Syndrome. Not really an excuse, I'm aware but HOLY SHIT I WANT THIS GAME!!!

Ignore those Haters Hollie, I thought this was great.

Can't wait for New Vegas.

We all love you really. Did I tell you about my dream where you caught me gaming naked after a NARP? It was pretty hawt. Only down side was that Dale was there too!

I feel sorry for all the other games coming out after New Vegas that I won't be playing for months while I drown myself in New Vegas. Notice I didn't say I was sorry, because I will not apologize for my Fallout addiction!

I love Fallout 3's engine but I really would like to know if they actually made any improvements to it. I guess I'll have to wait and see since no interviewers seems to notice that.
