Well, its not really unbalanced, so much as that certain areas are a no go until you level up more.

Granted, deathclaws will still break you in half if you're not prepared for them. :lol:

Weird nitpick with the toploader NES: The power button slides on/off, but the reset button pushes down.

I keep trying to slide the reset button like on the SNES...

Very true. Fallout 1 and 2 were the same way, and no one complains that those games are unbalanced.

In my defence i haven't played fallout 1 and 2 yet :P

That just means you went somewhere you shouldn't have yet. you're supposed to take care of some other things and take a long hike around that area for a while. Deathclaws have always been the "Oh crap I'm not a badass yet I shouldn't be here run run FUCK RUN" mob.

Yeah, that'll take some getting used to. I may or may not still do that from time to time.

I'm not sure if these component cables actually make the PS2 look better, or I just really want to think these lines are crisper.

Play some 480p compatible games (if you can). Then it all makes sense.

This definitely an unfamiliar adventure. I actually put in FFXII in 16:9.
