Wasteland 3 Interview: Brian Fargo Tells GameSpot About Offering Meaningful Choices

GameSpot has officially kicked off Play For All--a celebration of all things gaming--and we were recently joined by Brian Fargo to talk about his long career and his upcoming title, Wasteland 3. Fargo talks about numerous topics with editor Michael Higham in the video below, and gives us a few interesting insights into the upcoming third Wasteland game.
