Fall Out 3?

[Nismo240]

Has anyone played it yet? I looked at it and thought "Hmmmm, first person shooter RPG............ so Oblivion with guns....... maybe later"

I've read on some PC gaming sites that its a buggy mess. I can't say from experience, not really my type of game.

its not all that buggy. actually a fun game!

[Kevman]

Wanted to try it, but got Call of Duty 5 instead..

[Four-Speed]

Kevman what do you think of COD5? I really like it my self.
I'm about halfway thru singleplayer and Multiplayer is a blast also.

[Kevman]

I think it's the most realistic game I've ever played.. I enjoy the single player alot, some stuff is a bit too difficult, but it beats the hell out of Midnight Club LA..

[KrokE]

I liked COD4 single player more, but yah it's pretty good. Hard to measure up to the COD4 single player in my opinion.

[Kevman]

The story in CoD4 was phenomenal.. This one is just another WWII game.. What they need is to go back to WWI, each mission would be a month long.. It would never end..

Fallout 3 -> Better than Oblivion

And I thought Oblivion was addicting.. I rented Fallout 3 twice!

When you said Oblivion Kevman you hit the nail right on the head. I have Oblivion 4 the elder scroll's and it's the same game. I mean all the control's are the same the level up system is the same there's the main story and little sub story's in both your weapons and armor wear out the same way and you have to fix them. I guess what I'm saying is if you liked Oblivion then you will like fallout 3 cause there ver,very,very simuliar.

Yep i have it on pc yeah its got some bugs glitches,but just play around them. ya know there are 3 DLC expansions for FO3 now. operation anchorage,the pitt,and broken steel. only bad thing,ya have to buy them.

[cobra96]

i LOVE fallout 3...very good story...i just hated it ended so quick...i was so interested in figuring out the plot that i just beat the game instead of doing a lot of side missions...this game is extremely fun especially when u get a lot of ammo and u start blowing up a pack of super mutants with a fat boy...my wife really liked the game and she doesnt even like video games...in my opinion its well worth the money

[DreadZer0]

I'd say get it. I found leveling in oblivion a bit confusing, so fallout is worth it.

[Albert42]

Who else has the DLCs? Cobra broken steel continues on with the main story.

i have all but the broken steel one i believe...havent played yet though since i dont have a machine capable of playing right now

[gcountach]

I got all of them but broken steel (want it though for just the reason Albert mentioned). I can honestly say that the first one (which name I can't remember) was only good for the loot after. Otherwise, it felt really... out of place. Granted, it was suppose to take place in the past (the sim itself), but even with that thought in mind it felt like a freeware mod quality in the scripting.

But yes, Fallout 3 is so worth buying and playing. For the love of God, what crazy person told you otherwise?!?!

[ragecage]

The exploration aspect of Fallout 3 makes it tough to beat. To me its the 2nd best game released for the 360, with Bioshock taking 1st. I have all the DLC, and Broken Steel is the best add-on by far.

[cobra96]

fallout is the best game available until MWO is released :)

[kevmeister]

there's a new DLC (due in June, we'll see 'bout that...) called Point lookout coming soon (think...Fallout 3 meets...deliverance (without all that banjo music and squealing pig business)). it looks good from the previews. New Vegas (I think Christmas or later) looks like it may be a whole new map. If yer gonna play Fallout 3, do the PC version (there's literally a ton of mods for the thing)

[cobra96]

PC version is great once u get a mapped out controller

[kevmeister]

if you use the xbox 360 controller, the controls are default with both. don't know if that helps. I've played both versions. I've also found that the 360 controller works well for oblivion on the PC as well...

Absolutely. If your computer can handle it, always get games like this for PC. I do that for the modding alone.

yeah i forgot about that one...i used a cheap one that suck and was a pain to map...shouldve just got a 360 controller...i played this game on a laptop and it lagged a bit...mostly cuz of the heat but still was an awesome experience
