Fallout 3 (reviews, quote, Computer, cheap)

Sparky · 10-28-2008, 04:44 PM

i just picked up my copy. Haven't got a chance to play it yet.

Anyone else get it? Thoughts?

Well just sold my soul, bought Fallout 3...

Looks decent enough if I don't compare it to the originals...

I've added it to my mental list of games I will get once I buy a new computer.

I liked 1 and 2, but I don't know how I feel about the fps feel of this newest installment

For anyone having doubts, buy it.

I own the ps3 version, which is glitchy as ****, and its still the most fun i've with a video game in years.

No exaggeration.

Decent, nothing like Fallout 1 or 2 so don't get it for the name... Not really anything like a shooter either...

You don't like it?

I'm loving it.

Im at this section where these slave rebels have captured Abe Lincolns head

I love the world, though im a sucker for anything post-apocalyptic

Zarko · 11-01-2008, 11:08 PM

No I do like it, just nothing like 1/2 ( as to be expected)

Sparky · 11-01-2008, 11:13 PM

I was thinking about buying them. Then i heard how hard they were.

In terms of the graphics and writing it isn't similar at all?

Well they were my favourite games of all time, and still are...

The writing/dialogue in the originals is great... Can't say the same for FO3 which is pretty poor in comparison for a good RPG...

They aren't difficult... Just entirely turn based (Which I prefer)

Image VATS but then include movement in terms of using action points. When you run out, the next person uses all of their action points.

Great story, great replayability... Not really difficult, though it does depend what you choose to focus on (Easiest would be Small guns, lock pick and speech) but there are a lot of possibilities... I would check em out just for the sake of it. I know if Aus I saw a pack which have Fallout 1, fallout 2 and fallout tactics (Which is pretty much just action, not much story, and its level based) for around 17 bucks... So you can definitely get them cheap.
