Got 1 wrong. The picture of the brahmin got me. :facepalm:


Almost got me too. It's all in the trees!

I got 99 percent. Looked at one and thought, that doesn't appear in New Vegas at all, that's obviously FO3. *clicks New Vegas* :facepalm:

I wish the one that made this quiz remove the HUD.

I only miss one which is the first one.

The one that nearly got me is the one with that critical laser shot against that ghoul. Thats the one from Dunwich Building.

The quiz was far too easy, but maybe that's an indication of IGN's shortcomings. I only missed the picture with the terminal. The rest were too easy (Paradise Falls? C'mon...).

Also, whoever designed that [sarcasm]nearly impossible quiz[/sarcasm] needs to be fired. There's no reason a company can't find someone to work for them who knows how to make a quiz that doesn't require the user to work their way through 60 web pages.

I get the feeling they were trying to apply the graphics are the same. CURSE YOU IGN TROLLS. :swear:

100% But I'll admit I guessed at the terminal screen shot. They tried so hard at making it look like FO3 that I figured it had to be FONV, lol

I got them all right, but 1.

Edit: And the terminal is in cerulean robotics or the Rocket HQ. How do I know this? The protectron tube things.

Yeah, ok, so the graphics are the same. Like this is news to anyone anymore. Yey, it only took IGN a month and a half to figure it out! :down:
Same engine, same models, and yet they managed to make FNV distinct. I'd say it's a plus for Obsidian. Tho it helps that IGN failed with choosing some of the screenshots. :down:

100%. #10 was a bit tricky, but the higher resolution clipboard on the desk was a New Vegas addition. Yea, I play it way too much.

I don't see what the big deal is. My main concern with video games is about whether or not they're fun to play, not that the graphics blow my mind (case in point, I've been playing Deus Ex lately and the graphics are atrocious even for the year the game was made). Besides, given that Obsidian only had a couple years to get the game out, I don't see how people could get so bent out of shape over the graphics unless they have unrealistic expectations.

People are becoming way too superfisicial when it comes to games. I don't mind people having a preference, what i do mind is devs (not obsidian) shoving the casual markets preference down our throats.

One wrong on that screenshot with the Computer Terminal sitting on the desk.

Really, it could have went either way since the indoor textures and the office furniture were directly recycled from FO3 to FONV... =p

I got the one with the vaporized ghoul wrong. If there's any sort of visual clue in that image, I didn't see it. As for the terminal, I guessed it was the one in Cerulean Robotics but apparently I was wrong.

Got them all except the terminal. The only thing nearly impossible about this was having enough patience to wade through page after page, especially when every other question turned up a :swear: ad page.

Here's to hoping that Obsidian and Bethesda don't cave in and make graphics the #1 priority in their games. Call of Duty is a perfect example of the limitations you face when trying to polish a turd.

100%

As before those that showed the HUD gave away which game it was from, others were easy due to such an atmospheric difference in the games.

100%

If that was their idea of "Nearly Impossible," I'd hate to see what they call "Laughably Easy." :D

There were about 3 that weren't instantly recognizable for some glaringly obvious giveaway.
