Fallout 3 Review Arena

[JMeganSnow]

nilcypher, is there any particular format requirement? Can I submit, say, a Word document (in which case, how exactly do I attach it to a PM?) or does it have to be just a straightforward PM (in which case I'd like to know how the inline image tag works)?

Edit: never mind, I think I figured it out on my own.

 

[Hey Joe]

Just sent my review through.

I probably did the same thing 1000 other people did, but I had fun while I was writing it, and that'sthe aim of the game. That and maliciously spreading rumours about your opposition.

 

[Logan Westbrook]

Remember, you only have until Friday to submit your reviews.

 

[HSIAMetalKing]

I'm looking forward to these reviews-- I've got a drinking game planned. One shot each time someone quotes "War. War never changes." One shot for a comparison to Oblivion-- two shots for use of the phrase "Oblivion with Guns." Beer bong whenever anyone mentions how lame it is that you can't murder children.

 

[Hey Joe]

If my review gets through the judging round, it'll be a miracle. The review was me just cutting loose for the sake of it. It has no chance of winning, but I reckon it's a pretty nifty piece.

I'm also looking forward to who else did it in my style, a style that I was the first one to use way back in the GTAIV comp. Just sayin'....look it up. Ahh, what's the Escapist without shameless self-promotion eh?

Other than that, good luck to all and I'm looking forward to reading some decent reviews with the usual suspects at the fore.

That was... difficult. Less so because of the word limit, which for some reason seems far less limiting than last time, and more because I just had so much to write about. I really want that title. Vault Scion, anyone, for a bit of retrospective to the originals?

It seems you're going to have to fight me for it, Mr. Binary RAK [http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a395/NewClassic/Forum%20Stuff/Escapist/RAK.png].

EDIT
Also, if it's not too much of a bother, how long until the reviews are put out into the community, or is there no set date for it?

 

[wilsonscrazybed]

For the title conferred, how about sociopathic saviour? Seems in line with the games warped sense of morality.

I've wanted to use "Child Killer" in honor of the guys at NMA, but I don't think most people would immediately get the reference.

 

[Logan Westbrook]

Ok folks, then entries are in, this weekend will be spent in careful deliberation and the first round should be up on Monday!

 

[smallharmlesskitten]

Never. It has now been posted in the national moderator boardroom. It is now laughed at and called charles

You know what's awesome? I guess you'll all see shortly.

Not cool, wilson. Teasing us like that. We still love you, though.

We do?

I think he's using the royal we (me and god).

I for one am looking to all the crazy rules implemented during this competition. There should be a round where all reviews are backward and judged on the quality of coherence after the jumbling.

We have a round where we require you to be underwater while judging the entries.

Out of sheer pedantry, I believe that it's written "Childkiller" in the original games. I had to look up a Fallout walkthrough to verify it, but I think that my devotion to the Fallout series that I'd notice a minor detail like that should be acknowledged.

I am not sure what scares me more, the fact you know that, or the the fact it actually exists.

Because judging just ain't judging without scuba gear

Since we're all being super detail-driven here, wouldn't that be S.C.U.B.A. ?

 

[Spartan Bannana]

Awww, I missed my chance on this one, was too lazy to submit anything

 

[Hawaiigm]

I totally have things to say about Fallout Three, but I didn't see this thread until today. Damnation!

 

[Novajam]

Apologies. Rage got the better of me.

 

[wilsonscrazybed]

Well, I just finished Fallout 3. Am I allowed to change my review and say that

Spoiler: Spoilers Kinda

I really @%$*ing hate the ending?

Yea, the ending sucks, but this isn't a place to discuss the game. This is a place to talk about the arena, or ask questions pertaining to it.
