    ^^^ I hope he doesn't direct the movie either. The TV series should be on a station like HBO.

    Dear Osama Bin Laden,

    the dang capitalists pigs at Bethesda software is ruining a great franchise I am sure you love too, the Fallout series. Can you please send them some airplanes full of nukes to them?

    Thanks in advance.

    Dear Yemerich,

    After I saw what they've done with FO3, I myself would pilot those planes!

    Best regards,
    Osama

    Fallout 3 is all about violence and despair. I can't see this transferring to T.V.

    On its own Fallout 3 is a great game, a rollicking good romp but sadly not a worthy successor to Fallout 2 and the exclusivity deal with Microsoft is beyond excuse. It is however a major improvement on the dumbed down travesty of Oblivion. Come on Beth. you can do it, each step forward made in Fo3 has its roots in the pre-Oblivion past, put down the consoles, chill the adrenalin junkies, strike visceral from your dictionary and let the writers have their way.

    Fallout 3 isn't just about the violence and despair, like that's what makes it fun, but violence plays a big role in other video games too.

    From what I heard there was a series that sounded similar to Fallout with the post apocalyptic theme. It was called Jericho.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jericho_(TV_series)

    I could actually see it working. As long as it is directed well and isn't direct to Sci Fi Channel.

    But who knows, it will probably get effed up by doing so. :wallbash:

    To be honest, this kinda worries me.

    I would rather hear about a sequel or an expansion to Fallout 3 instead of a movie or TV series.

    Ninja edit 2: lol, I didn't even know there was the mention of Jericho in the article.

    The story line of Fallout is a pretty good one, full of action and would be cool to see as a movie but can they find the right director to make it GOOD

    FO3 about violence and despair? Well, it's such a empty nerfed shell of what it once was...
