"Fallout 3" is not a Fallout game, it's a Bethesda birthed retarded third child with a bad cough. It's worse than Fallout: Tactics.

I still refuse to buy it, just based on what I've heard so far.

Failure, i think not.This is the most successfull game in the fallout series.

By that line of reasoning, "Happy Birthday" is the greatest song ever written. It's not. I'll use an old school pen-and-paper RGP analogy to illustrate what I'm saying.

Dungeons and Dragons: pretty much universally considered the pinnacle of RPG games. The reason is because it's pretty easy to play. The rule books never even presented a viable method for calculating the physical damage a character receives from falling. Seriously. They never figured that out.

Aftermath!: a RPG pretty much nobody ever played. The rule books weren't flashy, the covers were stark black and yellow, and the rules were complex, but within those rules you could not only figure out falling damage, but how likely a character is to get an infection off a splinter of wood. That's the nature of a good game, it provides the structure for players to operate independently of what the game creators had in mind. It provides tools as opposed to presenting a road map.

Fallout 3 = D&D

Fallout 1 & 2 = Aftermath!

Another example: www.nma-fallout.com There are people to this day discussing, playing and modding the first two games. Nobody cares about part three, because the people who bought it are done playing it. Twenty level cap, no replay factor. Again, this is what I've read and heard so far. Not worth the money.

Eve? God, I got scared off when a friend of mine who played for years called it an 'asshole academy' due to all the newb killing as the fastest way to make a buck. Is it more fun than reports so far?

No actual game at the moment...

I dont get that game. Remindsme of morrowwind.
I Action/shooter games for me.

WoW is fun with the right crowd. My last guild broke up after a while and haven't found the same kind of group since. Pick ups are as fun, too many folks just grab and go. Get a regular group going and you got a good time.

I don't get your logic your saying a game "pretty much nobody ever played" is somehow better then a game that has sold over a million copies and is critically acclaimed.I'm not saying your old game is inferior i'm saying fallout 3 is more successful then any other previous version by sales and scores.The developers would fools to go back to that old style which lack sales like fallout 3.


If no one cared it wouldn't be doing better then the previous versions and the no replay value comment is ridiciolous.fallout 3 is well over 50 hours with multiple endings.You sure have alot to say about it withoout even playing it.That little disgruntled community should give fallout 3 a chance.

Well, Bethesda shouldn't have presumed to call the game Fallout 3, that's the problem. Van Buren is Fallout 3, it just never got finished. If this game had been called Fallout: Vault Zero (or whatever) I would have no problem with it.

I probably will play the damn thing eventually, but I'm not paying full price for it, strictly on principle.
