Please, I hate when people refer to Fallout 3 or Fallout NV as just "Fallout".
Bethesda Bought the rights to the games Fallout 1, 2, and tactics and completely ruined its lore and integrity. I'm not saying Fallout 3/NV are bad, but the Fallout series was not suppose to be a game like what Bethesda made it into.
If Bethesda wanted to have a post-apocalyptic game, they should have started their own thing, not turn the Fallout series into something it is not.
Note: No offense to any Bethesda Fallout fans, I'm not trying to start a flame war. If you want me to explain what I mean by "integrity" and "lore" I will. Its not that the games are bad, its just they are not what Fallout is suppose to be.
