    Fallout 3....

    Anybody playing this? I don't remember the last game that's this "life-sucking"....I sat down, thinking I am just gonna play a quest or 2, and next thing you know 12 hrs have gone by and you haven't got anything done.....graphic is great, the atmosphere feels like the old Fallout game, and the control and the level system is amazing.....

    I may get this instead of COD5, that or End War. Not sure which one i want really. Fallout seems like a bloody long game...its not to linear is it?

    nope....its like Far Cry 2 but with more shit happening other than the checkpoint fights(though I enjoy that too), its just much more involving.....

    If you have played the previous Fallout you'll love it since it feels just like the old game, but in glorious 3D FPS view.....The dark quirky humor is great too....

    Tell me about it....

    That happened to me a few times in Uni...lol

    Now that I think about it, the last time I play a game that involved was NFS Underground 1 and 2, but if you play those game 12 hrs straight you have beaten the thing and not touched it again....this after 12 hours you are probably not even 1/4 done...

    It's so awesome.
    The perks are cool and they're hilarious.
    Like the bloody mess perk which makes an enemy or NPC blowup if you crit them

    My favourite weapon so far has to be the sniper rifle. <3 taking off heads.

    Havent had time to buy it or play it yet. I've been either at work or on far cry 2 and world at war is my next scheduled game.

    Fallout 3 looks immense from what I've heard from other gamers. I have to admit I have not been impressed by the videos or gameplay. It is heavily reminiscent of oblivion and NOT and FPS. I have to stress that to everyone. It isnt an FPS. Its a role playing game like oblivion but with a preferred first person view. It doesnt play like a FPS though and if you buy it with that intention you will be disappointed
