Fallout: Shadows of Boston Shows Up on IMDB

[Kilt'd]

Looks like the link leads to a deleted page now anyway.

 

[AuronFtw]

imdb cleaned it up. Smells like weak hoax attempt.

 

[putowtin]

This has hoax written all over it.

Fallout: Shadows of Boston sounds about as foreboding as Fallout: Depths of Wisconsin.

Oh I like, how about;

Fallout: Puddle of San Francisco
Fallout: Service Tunnels of Bridlington

And my personal favourite;
Fallout: Man Hole Covers of New Jersey

Are people just not even trying now? I mean, Shadows of Boston? Really? I'm fairly sure anyone who would seriously suggest that would get a swift kick in the 'nads for suggesting such a daft name. Tri hrdr n00b!!!

Fallout: The Boston T-34b Party would be better than that.

Fallout: The Boston T-34b Party would be better than that.

Yeah... didn't want to comment in this thread, but I had to congratulate you for that one. Win.
Anyway, obvious hoax is obvious, move along people.

Other names that are just as bad as shadows of boston:
Fallout: Brotherhood
Fallout: Apocalyptic War
Fallout: Brand New World
Fallout: Return of the Enclave
Fallout: New E.D.E.N.
Fallout: The South Rises
Fallout: Fallout
F.A.L.L.O.U.T.
F4LLOUT
FALL0UT

There you go Bethesda.

What about Fourllout? They could even work the title in to an in-game pun by having four louts show up repeatedly for comedic effect, slipping on radscorpion droppings and the such.

And I don't think Shadows of Boston is such a bad title, they could have called it Fallout: Vegeta's Reckoning after all.

Wanted to ask about "some actual star power" mentioned in article
Are there really that many people who decided to buy FO3 because Liam Neeson was voicing a character there?
As much as I care Bethesda could hire fresh acting-school-academy-thing graduates as long as character voicing is good
Who knows, maybe that way they could afford more than 6 voice actors

I would wait for a Bethesda game that isn't bound by prophecy, but I'd be waiting for a long time.

Especially if such TES games already exists (Daggerfall and Redguard are two off my head)

 

[blackrave]

That was old bethesda.

And those games are actually still part of the dragon prophecy, at least when it concerns TES lore fanatics. They all complete one of the signs needed for Skyrim to happen. All those games led up to Skyrim, which is the last part of the prophecy.

So TES games are a prophecy within prophecy most of the time. Even when they are not explicitly stated.

Well, by same logic we can't really claim that any game they release isn't ran by prophecy, because 10 games later they might claim otherwise

You know, this could work.

Throw out Ron Pearlman, and bring in Jack Nicholson and do it something like this:

Plus, can we all agree that Shadows of Boston would be the lamest title in history?

Only if we can also agree that "The REALLY Wild Wasteland" is a good one.

Is this becoming a new thing for bored internet denizens to do late at night? Are we going to be seeing fallout hoaxes popping up in all of our social media feeds constantly now? I really don't understand the fascination with creating a hoax. Anyhow, this has to be one of the worst ones we've had in a while.
