I still say you should wait till the sucker rush and buy it.

You can learn alot from them.

I had some high expectations from GSC STALKER Clear Sky till the russian community when into a frenzy a while back. I got the game even with the uber work of the mod community and it still sucks royally. To bad because it had the potential to be a great game.

That why they fired the Product Manager and QC Administrator at GSC after the stink.

In the end its your call.

Goodluck.

I liked STALKER. What was wrong with it?

Clear sky? Your joking right....

SHOC ok It rocks but CS ..... Hmmmm need major reparing and moding.

To me it seems like the type of genre of games that the original Fallouts were is dead now. It's all MMORPG's and 'huge' adventure type games like Oblivion. And sequels, FO 3 being one. Nothing wrong with sequels if they are done right, case in point SH 3.

A game has to tap into the imagination as well as be a good game and the original FO's managed to do that. No. 3 might do well financially for Bethesda but they will also make enemies out of the fans of the originals.

FO3 should tap the imagination if done right.

I detest slamming a game prior to release. All your comments are based on speculation. Something tells me this is the game of the year for 2008. Easy.

That is only my opinion though. We will not know till it is released.

This should wet your apetite and bring you up to my level on what it is going to be - I see a true Dues Ex (not the lame #2, but #1 - and I've been in this biz for 30 years and can smell a good thing when I see it) type sequel in my opinion - http://www.anandtech.com/weblog/showpost.aspx?i=486

That's you. I know enough about the game and the company to make up my mind and I will not buy it. This game is for the new generation of lulzers: graphics, stupid jokes, exploding corpses in slow motion. Where has all the story and gameplay from Fallout 1+2 gone? Or do we need no story when we can have Bloom 3.0??

You know what? I am going to reinstall Fallout2 soon and replay it. Same as I did some months ago with Arcanum and JA2, which was great. The old games were 10x better than these new ones the mainstream is currently drooling over.

Bethesda is the undertaker of Fallout, nothing else.

Doubt it. You cannot even comment on 'how much story' is in the game yet. From what I have seen, there is a ton of dialog.

I can see you have made up your mind already without any evidence to back it up. Bury your head in the sand then. Fine by me. You say this when the entire city of WA DC is rendered?

What I'm looking for is a good FPS RPG that can replace Deus Ex (The original) in my mind and I may just get it here.

If done right I agree with you. But from what I've seen they haven't.

For the casual gamer this game will suffice. For the FO fan it will not.

Plus Beth has bad history with its fans. They don't care what we want. They only care about quantity, not quality.

Subman you may detest people who expressing there experiance with companies ripping clients off but thats your call dude.

I'm interested in a game that just give more than graphics and sound. Fewer companies meet my expectations these days.

Todays way of thinking for games differs than 10 years ago that is for sure.

FO3 is a marketing gimmick nothing more.
