<br>
Sorry, but no one [no Bethesda developer] should be commenting on the article or any specifics about the game. Don’t worry - by the time the game comes out, you’ll have all the information you need to decide if you want to play it or not;)</blockquote>
<br>
I completely agree. The world as we know it will end if developers start answering questions about games. If you want to know something about the game, read uncle Pete's propaganda leaflets or better yet, buy the game and see for yourself. Don't be shy and preorder the game right now!

Cute. I guess we'll have the enjoyment of getting all information through the moron-filter articles in slobbering gaming rags and sites. That and press releases. Petey wants an iron grip on the information.

We have many exciting episodes of this saga ahead of us.

Is this really worthy of a news post? :?
No idea. You decide.

It does show the official reaction (lockdown) and tells you something about the game. In other words, if Bethesda had something to show to deal with a lot of negativity, they would have.

I wonder if the style of his reaction, which makes Mr Cheng indeed look like a stupid, is motivated by anger. No, seriously. This would proof Bethesda folks are just reasonable beings!!1 This is just amazing!

And yeah, Beth did let his customers taste the salty ejaculation of their works in the past by releasing rich demos, so we will also be able in this case to open our mouths for a free shot.

You all try really hard, it's good to see such enthusiasm when it comes to something as important as lapping up the milk spilled by every possible being connected to bethesda.

You know, I think Fallout 3 is going to be one of those games were piracy would be completely morally acceptable for demo purposes.

Wowee. I kinda expected something like this, but not so soon, and at the same time, I would think that they would want to at least clear up some confusion about the combat system.

Wow....I've heard of information lockdown....but damn, this is ridiculous. Heck, even Bioware have answered a few questions from a "Jack_Bauer_In_Space" about Mass Effect.

Learning from Bush:

We have strict principles against answering questions about our games before, during or after ongoing development.
