Pete Hines Interview at OXM.

Well it seems out good buddy Pete "I didn't know what Fallout was until we picked it up" Hines sat down Offical Xbox Magazine for an interview. As usual I will offer my though on what he said.

"Yes, that's the third of the three things. Whether it's the absolute last one remains to be seen. Because it's been hugely successful. Operation Anchorage vastly exceeded our expectation. It was like "holy shit, we did how many?" And the Pitt was really successful, after a bit of a false start."

Why is the success of the 3 DLC's a surprise? I knew from the time they where announced the brain dead Bethboys where gonna eat them up.

"But Broken Steel is the one that. when we first announced all three, this is the one that everyone has been bugging us the most about, because it removes the ending and changes the level cap and lets you play more in that world. I think it's going to be hugely, hugely popular."

Of course it's gonna be popular Pete. The BFF's (Bethesda Fan Fags) will love it, as they get to see more asploding heads and ZOMG AW3SOM3!11!! GOREZ!!!!. Also, the new ending is awful and it's pretty much lifted straight from Van Buran, because Bethsoft really can't come up with their own ideas at all.

"Our intention is that Fallout is ours, we went to great lengths to acquire it. It wasn't just something we were working on but something we owned. We want to make sure whatever it is we do is appropriate and we have a lot of love for it and respect for it."

Love and respect for it? Yes, re-skinning Oblivion and adding guns shows so much love and respect.

"Look, we ran a gauntlet for four and a half years doing this - there was a lot of folks weren't really sure if we were the right guys to have this. Were we going to fuck it up and destroy what was beautiful? But for the most part I think we've proven that we can be stewards for this thing and take care of it."

Because you did fuck it up and you HAVEN'T proven you are able to take care of it. What FO3 did prove is that Bethsoft has little creative ideas as FO3 was pretty much a mix and match of ideas and "cool shit" from FO1, FO2, FoT, Van Buran, and yes even that "non canon" Brotherhood of Steel. At least they are trying to get a competent studio to make New Vegas and I hope Obsidian can work some magic with the Gamebryo engine.

I was going to post on the epic ass kicking that No Mutants Allowed gave Bethboy Makemeasammich.
