I don't get it, people don't like what Bethesda "did" to Fallout? Like transition it to first person and 3D enviornments? That's really so horrible?

In my case it's because lately, Bethesdas games . I don't have a review about Fallout 3 yet, this one's about Oblivion: http://www.rpgcodex.net/content.php?id=129

And this whole "we-must-give-stellar-reviews-because-everyone-else-did" thing.

I've never followed the Fallout series. I don't really know what they are about. After a few minutes looking up some info, I think I might be interested in it! A future apocalyptic RPG sounds kind of cool. In the shot above, is that suppose to be a zombie shopkeep? That's kind of funny!

Fallout is quite possibly the first (or second) computer game I have ever played (Along with Transport Tycoon)

Don't know why, or how, for that matter...

The two Fallout RPG, especially Fallout 1, excelled in a multitude of ways ( role playing , relevance of stats, choice and consequence, storytelling, (turn based) combat , humour ) and are considered by many to be the pinnacle of CRPG's.

Fallout 3 is a "next-gen" rehash by a company that will makes sure it's oblivion with guns, can be appreciated by console gamers, and it will be a major success!!

I can already see the reviews!! Omg RPG of the millennium, even better than Oblivion!!!

That stance is perfectly reasonable. My issue is with people like the hardcore NMA guys who are basically angry it isn't going to be EXACTLY like Fallout 1. I hate them so much. They've got lots of arguments but they all usually boil down to "it isn't fallout 1" and that's just stupid.

I think they are complaining about Fallout Tactics. I have it, but never played it. Fallout Tactics took a lot of what made Fallout and Fallout 2 great. It even went against the original story line, but this was in effort to make it multiplayer.

But wasn't that Interplay back then? Now you have Bethesda on the project. I really have a hard time beleiving that Bethesda is gonna screw this one up! I'm thinking this will be the Game Of The Year for 2009 and I'm probably right!

I'm personally looking forward to it.

PS. And i just want to point out, I look forward to very few games these days (when I used to look forward to many titles in a given year). Most stuff is a rehash now days - like GTA. This looks like something new and fresh! I see an excuse to upgrade my video card already!

I was reading on the Fallout 3 forum that if you can run Oblivion you should be able to run Fallout 3. I can run Oblivion pretty well for my computer and if that's the case I might just have to get this game.

There was only one game I was looking forward to: C&C Red Alert 3. Now I got Fallout 3.

Fallout 3 is one of the 5 games I'm most looking forward to this year:

1. Empire: Total War
2. Spore
3. Fallout 3
4. Can't remember...
5. Can't remember...
