Bethesda owns the rights to the series. Comes with the territory.

Yes, but, the way it is worded, it would make the unknowing think that they created the game.

This is a exhibit on the history of games.

It's just copyright info, the main people behind the games are all listed in the first bit, this is for all the titles.

Bethesda killed so much with fallout... they made an epic RPG into a FPS, in my eyes there are only three fallout games (F, F2 and FoT), Fallout 3 and its predesixrs are only taking place in the awesome world that gamesas built in the first place.

It is Fallout (the first game) that won not Fallout3 and it was gamesas that made Fallout and what atleast i know of Bethesda had nothing to do with it...

LOL that's the best joke i ever heard. the only way you can like the other versions not made by gamesas is if you like a lame story and like oblivion b/c let's face it,3 was nothing more than oblivion with a fallout skin. Image

You are so amusingly.

gamesas has said nothing, only the fans.
You have posted only once and only here and make such a claim.

Makes one wonder your reason for even being here.


We have had the other company for some time, off and on, come over here and attempt to make things bad or put down gamesas.

But the vast majority of us don't do that to them.

Hope that in the future when you post again, it is more to the point, accurate and about gamesas's actual actions, games and such.

Oh, BTW, welcome aboard. ;)

Thank you for the posts, but this is a potentially hazardous thread so locking it now.
