Official Fallout 3 content editor released, hilarious mods to possibly ensue photo

Notice the quote in the image directly above? Yep, Freddy Krueger actually dropped that line in the movie Freddy's Dead. I'll have you know I've been waiting all year for an excuse to get a quote from that glorious movie onto Destructoid, and this was the perfect opportunity.

Earlier today, Bethesda Softworks released the Garden of Eden Creation Kit, Fallout 3's official editor. As with every other big-name title that has mod creation tools, I fully expect to see you guys come up with all sorts of crazy, disturbing, and even hilarious quests while I sit on my ass and mash on this keyboard.

Intrigued by the G.E.C.K.? You should be. The toolkit can be downloaded here, while the official Wiki and instructional videos reside right here and over there.

While we wait for Bethesda to finish up that promising DLC, what would your dream quest and/or mod for Fallout 3 be? Super Mutant Behemoth deathmatches? Forty frag mines and an old man? You tell us!

Lol, that movie is so deliciously terrible. The Nightmare on Elmstreet had the most personality out of all the 80's slasher flicks. That part is almost as cool as when the guy gets sucked into his own comic book "Take on Me" style.

When Spencer gets sucked in, it reminds me of that ridiculous Nickelodeon video game themed game show where the final test is "Being in a game"

Thank you Grim!

I just want to add that you just helped me title my final paper for my Media Literacy class which is on DRM.

"Who's Playing With Power Now?"

Thanks again.

I can't wait for a mod to come out with customized armor stands and weapon lockers. I can't stand the available house themes in vanilla FO3.

Fallout 3? Ha yeaah, right. I liked it better when it was called "Guitar Hero with VATS"

I'm so glad that, even though the Playstation 3 came out a year behind the 360, it can take full advantage of its delay by offering those of us who now own the console everything Microsoft has and more.

Just a half-year-fucking later. (Literally: six months of Sony spatially summating us.)

Yeah, the PS3 got The Shivering Isles, and BioShock, and it's own proper network (hopefully). And yeah it'll eventually get some of this Fallout 3 content (as well as Star Ocean 4, if I might digress a bit), but do the suits at Sony even make a damn effort?

I've owned a 60 gig model since the Christmas it came out. Blu-ray won; that's dandy. I loved Metal Gear and Heavenly Sword and Resistance and whatever else we alone were offered -- and I've never had a single problem with the hardware -- but this is frigging ridiculous. If development is so effing tough, make a dumbed-down toolkit, because right now it's a port machine (another tangent: FU, Square-Enix), and evidently one that takes six frigging months to muster up the guff to work with. And if you already own a distribution network (for movies), get it work with more than Warhawk, and make it more worthwhile for developers. You'd think we were still using the PS2 dial-up plugin.

Playing RTS games and Morrowind mods on PC is starting to remind me why, for all its conveniences, the console bullshit gets old in a hurry.

Fallout 3 and Freddy...two great tastes that taste great together!

It'd be awesome to use this mod and the perk where you can insta-kill sleeping characters.

I would want to have a chance to become a super mutant and your combat skill get a boost while things like barter an intelligence go down

Ah yes, super mutants. I was scared shitless of them until I realized that even at about level 6 or 7 I could just wait until they got close while turning around a corner (or run up to them myself), open up VATS and give them a combat shotgun round to the face for an easy kill.

I hope someone makes a simple mod: you boot the game, and it states "THIS IS NOT IN ACCORDANCE TO FALLOUT CANON. THIS IS A LIE. FALLOUT 3 IS A LIE." and then lets you play the game. Just a simple mod warning everybody that they're about to play a piece of crap, and not an actual game!

Kinda makes we wish I never bought this for my PS3...*sighs* but then again paying to remove a level cap is fucking retarded.

I would definitely make the land look green again... I know it defeats the whole purpose of the game... but it might be fun.

@ Solivagant-

So you're saying it isn't a game? What is it, then? When I play Fallout 3, I'm not playing a video game?

Interesting.
