The image you used for Fallout 3 is from Falout 2.

Another “writer” that doesn’t do his homework very well, or have a severe handicap in understanding simple concepts like VATS has nothing to do with turn-based combat. It’s like calling roller skates are the same as cars because they have wheels.

And humor? Fallout series were famous for its black humor, and Fallout 3 instead gives us slapsticks mixed in a lot of “F**Ks”. How is that humor? Maybe to a 10 year old, but I would have guessed people grew out of it once they reach puberty.

Extremely poor attempt at writing a decent fact-supplemented article.

Good article, but VATS isn’t turn-based.

How can it be considered turn-based when all you do is in VATS is queue up aimed shots?

True, but Interplay shut down Black Isle only in November this year, and the article is more to do as a retrospective on the previous games. But thanks for pointing that out . .

Black Isle isn’t developing the MMO – Interplay is.
