wow I didnt even know it existed!
I think I'm gonna wait until Borders gets it in store and use one of those awesome coupons with it.
Even at 500 pages, $35 for a strat guide seems too much.
What else is in it beside the walkthroughs and maps? Cool art?
*edit*
Only $20.99 @ Amazon and if you order $25 you get free shipping*
Much better than Gamestop's price.

Well, the 360 gameplay videos have always been pretty solid in the FR department to date imo, but I guess this just reconfirms the frame rate issues with the PS3 version we've heard for awhile now.

it has 500 pages zomfgbbq
and the best part is....according to the table of contents....main quest containing only 69 pages exactly.....
Man I bought the guide for Oblivion and it is probably the only guide I've bought in over a decade or more. Seems like I may need this one as well, bah.

Wow, 500+ hours and he doesn't hate the shit out of it? :lol
You'd expect that post to be a maniacal hate filled rant.
Can someone post the article that says stuff about the Steam version? I can't find the link anymore, and even if I could, I can't access it from work.
I'd really like to get the Steam version...I just want to see exactly how it's gimped. I know they said mods may not work, but I want more technical information than that. If it's a simple matter of bringing in a patched .exe, then I don't care.

Holy crap. I've been playing nothing but Stalker for the last month or two, where you can essentially carry a bunch of ammo, some health kits, and a single backup weapon before you can barely move. It's taught me that carrying anything more than a single backup weapon is a luxury. But it also taught me to compulsively throw bolts in front of me wherever I go.
But seriously, I guess it never really occurred to me that "normal" games let you store fifty guns in your back pocket.
So...in Megaton.
I'm choosing to disarm the bomb and not blow it up. I tell the sheriff about the guy who wants to blow it up, he runs over there, talks with him and gets shot the fuck up in .5 seconds. Awesome. I hope this means I still get something for disarming the bomb.

Picked it up at lunch at Circuit City... got the game and guide for 64 bucks anda 10 dollar gift card. Great deal. I was SOOOO close to buying the hard copy guide, it looked and felt so awesome but it was 35 bucks and I got the normal one for 10 so I could not justify.
My wife was so excited when I dropped it off.. I had to go back to work but she has been playing it ever since so I assume she is enjoying it.

Is the post from a mod or user?
If it's a user, it sounds as if he's not sure about the Steam version. Sounds like just a modified EXE to me. I'll pick up the Steam version, and just download a cracked .exe if ever I need it for a mod.
It seems to me that since the game has no official mod support, they need to inject at bootup. Therefore, they need to alter the way the game launches. This won't work with Steam, since the original .exe is forced to launch through Steam. A modified EXE should do the trick no problem.
Of course, they might find a way to inject it into the Steam version without needing to alter the EXE. Worst case scenario, mods will still work with a crack.

And it's not trolling just because you say it is.
Think about what you're saying. Why would Turn 10 know what it's like to dev for PS3?
I'm asking because Odrion's complaints go beyond just a minor mention in the reviews we've seen and yeah, it shocks me that Bethesda would release it in such a state.
Whatever. I've been watching one of our senior designers play the game all day. Can't wait to get home and try it. He's been mostly screwing around and being as horrible as possible. One hilarious moment was when he did VATS on his father with a BB gun and it went into slow motion cutscene view showing him shoot his father in the head. We all exploded in cheers and clapping.

It's almost puzzle like. A screen pops up filled with these text outputs (words like HAPPY and STAND and TODAY). You have to see what the words have in common-- letters and position-- and you get four chances to pick which text output is the password.

The dog
... I heard you can beat the entire game without having him... is this true and where do you get him at?
It's pretty cool now, but I think it's a bit too trial and error. But maybe real lock picking is?Solo said:
Anyone notice the writing is much better? It's so much funnier. Some of the dialogue choices are cute. "I'm about as irradiated as I can be without burning a hole through the floor." :lol

Theres a video near the bottom of the page that apperently shows where and how to get the dog. I can't watch it because 1up flash videos have been screwed up for me lately. I download the newest version of flash yet I still get the same error everytime that I need to upgrade... it has been like that for a couple weeks now.
