Fallout Online register for the Beta now and get behind me in the queue to the Vaults!





Yes you can register for the beta of  Fallout Online on Interplays offical website  , lets hope there is a lifetime sub for this , and it lasts longer than the average MMORPG , does not involve the go from a to b pick up x shoot y and collect gold mechanic that has doomed all the recent MMOs ..


And you thought all they cared about was Earthworm Jim? 


How about a non static game world where we can own parts of  the map ,  tactically taking an entire city , holding it and developing it then defending it ,questing  or living within in it  , along with fellow players from ai and enemy players . Fallout was the first post apocalyptic  game series you could get married and divorced in !  Some ebb and flow in our MMORPG and less of the bash the big monster with 100 random mouseclicking non friends/siblings/spouses after grinding through another set of tunnels/corridors? 


The illusion of actually living and struggling is key to the early Fallout series lets hope the developers manage to instil some of the old magic.


The real test  however will be if Southpark cannot parody the game.....


And can someone at Interplay do for Descent , and Freespace , what Infinity Ward have done for the FPS please!

Fallout New Vegas avoid like a plague of Radroaches and await the GOTYR edition





Hit the space bar and pause your V.A.T.S or whatever they are calling it in the latest Fallout iteration , wait for the Game Of The Year edition of Fallout New Vegas ,  or the inevitable half price sale on Steam .


Because you remember don`t you how you put $100 /£70down for the tin that came with the last one only to spend another $60 on dlc , the GOTYR edition of Fallout 3 can now be had for around £15 to £20 if you shop around! And US fans just wait for the Christmas Steam sale !


Publishers take note this kind of DLC model limits and damages sales ,it was not too long ago that Fallout was a forgotten franchise. In these days of Android , IOS freebies and Steam  , i.e. increased competition your recently resurrected franchise may end up confined to the fictional Vaults it was originally set in. This would be a shame because the quality of the game is not in question , its the publishing model that threatens the long term existence of Fallout games.


You do remember publishing giants like Origin and Sierra ? that`s right we only remember them... cos they eventually lost their way trying to take too much from their fans..made some of the finest games ever along their journeys , though they were doomed by flawed publishing models.


And this is what worries me about the future of Fallout.


A much better publishing model would be to state that ALL future DLC will be free for those who spend the extra on the collectors editions , a little like lifetime subs for some MMOs . 


You might even attract some of that millions strong cash loose MMO crowd. And in the long term this will serve you better than inevitably releasing a GOTYR a few months from now that retailers will mark down to a 1/5th of the original collectors edition and annoy the hell out of your once loyal fans......


c.f. Gran Turismo 5 people........................... and also c.f. Valve with The Sacrifice for Left 4 Dead which is free to pc owners!


see if you  can resist the temptation:

    Playing Fallout 3 GOTYR on the Joojoo tablet using Steam ...







    Well it shocks me the hidden power that the joojoo actually has , for most of last year mine sat as an intersting purchase , on the shelf , waiting , waiting for a compatible ssd or msata to those in the know .  Some time last Autumn I got one , plus 4gb of DDR3 and Windows 7 Ultimate, and the joojoo has been my favourite gaming machine ever since . 


    Every day I discover a new game  or new old game that runs on it , and I mean far surpassing my expectations or anyone elses.. that is before you consider onlive , unity ,browser gaming and all the other gaming innovations that require and benefit from a full OS tablet.


    Joojoo was a tablet they said could not run a browser with Flash correctly today I will show you it running Fallout 3 Game Of the Year on Steam .  Take a look see , now what would you rather play on your tablet , a watered down app mimic rpg , or the finest the PC and Steam has to offer?



    I am astonished at the speed that the joojoo's desktop  nVidia Ion handles this game , take a look at some extensive gameplay , from the Birthday scene , the combat system , escaping the Vault  and some wide open spaces , check out the draw distance , the speed , and sound this is the desktop game ! not some lame app rendition or streamed version.. this is running natively installed on a 64gb msata ssd !




    Even though we build gaming rigs , every gamers dream is to break free from their computer room  and have access to all their games in the palm of their hands. Windows 7 on tablets ,  is clearly  the app for that as you can see from my continued tests for actual use , i.e. full blown pc gaming .... 


    Continuity between your desktop and tablet - one OS whether it is Windows 7 or 8 will free you from app slavery , come on who wants to play a watered down Android or iOS rpg when you can just click the Steam button and play, and continue  your favourite Bethesda RPG like Fallout 3 GOTYR for instance? 


    Why buy PC games and all those apps when you can play all your pc games on your tablet at no extra cost , the same goes for office and productivity applications.


    The joojoo configured this way is just a glimpse of what is coming  , although there is now a market for closed phone os tablets , there is a concurrent growing demand for full Windows 7 tablets , imagine what an i7 1g AMD or nVidia next gen gpu Windows 7 tablet could do ..


    With the joojoo owners really lucked out with Fusion Garage making the device easy to open ,it can exploit some of the latest msata storage , DD3 Ram , and contains a desktop Ion GPU , with dedicated and shared memory ,not bad at all for your average tinkerer...


    next time I think I have to try Oblivion..... after  Lord Of The Rings Online which I forgot about
    no wait next time the Classic Fallout 1 2 and Tactics on the joojoo!




    fire ants like Percy above keep my joojoo warm



    check out the Fallout series on Amazon

    6 days to go and the Steam Summer Camp sale has 70% off Fallout New Vegas and it`s DLC



    This is bad , there are still 6 whole days to go of thegameveda giving in to Gabe selling full PC games at iOS App prices .... 70% off Fallout New Vegas means that both DLC packs are now just  £2.24 each , whilst the game itself is a measly £8.99 ... how can you resist ? Well I can`t ... eat your heart out xbox live fans .... Of course by Call of Duty time ( also known as Fall or Autumn by pre Call of Duty civilizations)  there will be a GOTYR  that will cost around £15 .... so whether this is  actually the bargain that it seems is totally dependent on whether New Vegas ends up with around 8 expansion packs like its more illustrious and actually coded by people who had a hand in the original Fallout series predecessor.....

    Trine is 90% off , Ruse 66% off , Mount and Blade and Raven`s Singularity are  75% off and if you really want a good Duke Nukem game checkout Serious Sam HD Gold Edition at 80% off ...

    So time to divert some of your iTunes money to some REAL gaming ... there is no way my bank account will survive another 6 days of this Steam sale ... see proof Gabe drains bank accounts faster than hackers can .....
