Shitload of defective PC versions. My brother managed to get a working one, my coworker got one that the disk doesn't even spool up. Just Google Fallout 3 Crashes, many complaints the day of release.

Did you expect more from Bethesda? This is the same company that made Daggerfall, Morrowind, and Oblivion...
The fact that they are using someone else's intellectual property this time doesn't mean they suddenly know how to do things right!

This is the funniest thing I've read all week:

BWAHAHAHAHA - tool.

Cuz snopes has all the answers and we should just listen to what snopes has to say.

Are you retarded? Snopes is a perfectly good resource of determining whether or not the chain email you just got is bullshit. (Hint: If it's a chain email, there's a 90% chance it's bullshit by default) It's not an encyclopedia, it's a starting point. Like I told Sanchez, try thinking for yourself occasionally.

Exactly why I thought it was funny:
Yelling at people for believing everything they read and then in the same breath encourage them to read a different publication that would defeat the purpose of thinking for themselves.


Just givin ya shit cuz you're a hypocritical lefty that's all. No hard feelings.

I provided a resource for him to check his chain emails against as a starting point, one of many. Happens to be a favorite of mine and can usually be corroborated with other resources for verification. If anyone's foolish enough to rely on a single source (i.e. chain email) then they're beyond help. I mean really, chain emails aren't even a source. At least Snopes does a little research and provides links to legitimate sources.

It's not a fucking chain E-mail, it's an honest to g-d lawsuit filed by a reputable lawyer from PA. Go fuck yourself. :thumbleft:

With such ridiculous remarks as:
"Obama did not pay any attention to his grandmother until I showed up in Honolulu," he wrote in an email. "Suddenly she is the center of his attention. She is so central to his campaign that he has suspended it! But when Obama was here last summer he only visited his grandmother for an hour. One hour! Now he suspends his campaign for her?"
and
Obama visited her only very briefly during his summer vacation in Hawaii, and he didn't visit her when she was in a Honolulu hospital last week. There is no indication that her condition is life-threatening.
The guy is entirely convinced that Obama went to Honolulu to respond to his lawsuit, even though all other sources were reporting that Obama's grandmother was gravely ill, and this would be his last trip to see her, he says that there is no indication that her condition was life threatening??? She died a couple days ago.
The guy is just another loony that thinks the world revolves around his legal actions.

Remember to think for yourself occasionally though... who do the "all other sources" work for and report to? Everyone knows that most of the public media is super left wing. Just watch the morons on ABC from election night. Those two dumbells were drooling and masturbating all over Obama and the democratic party. If I owned a nation's media and had something to hide I'd probably use it to my advantage too... :salute:

Sorry, I forgot to use my ESP to pick up on Obama's grandmother's health conditions for "myself".

Inputs: wacko lawyer says Obama goes to Honolulu to respond to his lawsuit. all other news sources I read say that Obama puts campaign on hold to visit his ailing grandmother for the last time. Then all news sources I've read say Obama's grandmother died.
My thinking for myself: Obama went to visit his ailing grandmother, wacko lawyer is wacko, and I need to go close the window because I'm cold.
Just watch the morons on ABC from election night.
I haven't watched TV in many years. I'd rather not start again.

Guys, I just heard that Obama killed his grandmother to "prove" she was sick and therfore legitimize the reason he suspended his campaign to visit her.

Killed his own grandmother, can you believe it! Check snopes its true.

"Super left wing" is a gross exaggeration. Yes, most members of the media tilt to the left, but it's not nearly as bad as some make it out to be, and most members of the media take their job seriously enough to try to keep their reporting balanced. First hand experience talking here.

the case is still active - and Obama has still not released the documents - McCain was asked to release his and he did so.

If it is decided that Obama is not eligable then Biden willg et the presidency and Pelosi the vise chair..

I'm not sure which scenario is worse

Not necessarily. If Obama gets thrown off the electoral ballot then the DNC would have the opportunity to submit a substitute candidate, as long as it happens before Dec 15th (or whichever date the Electoral College meets). If it's after the electoral vote then Biden would get the Presidency, and IIRC he could nominate a replacement VP.
