And that's not all! Next in the pipeline are "Blackhart Bones Fallout 3", "Down in the Bunker - Cleve on Fallout 3", and "Jasede Finds the Furry Side of Fallout 3".

Stay tuned!

"until the Elder Scrolls V hype machine kicks into gear and the frank admissions that 16 hours of gameplay in a hotel room "failed" to reveal the many flaws of Fallout 3."

Not sure about this. Since Oblivion, Bethesda's reversed their trend of making each game worse.

Morrowind>Oblivion<Fallout 3<TES V?

Nice review overall, but...

The lack of an option to turn off VATS is as inexcusable as a turn-based combat implementation without settings for movement speed.

Surely an option to disable it would be no different to the already available option of not using it?
Or do you mean the slow-mo?

Fallout 3 is dead, old story, history. Funny enough NMA keeps filling their news pages with tons of Fallout 3 reviews. They are on the #73 round-up now.

Funny thing to say for someone who registered mid-2008.

Fucking newfags everywhere.

you might have had a point were you not simply a few months earlier than him, leave the "newfag" shit to people who've been here since 05 yeah?

@NiM82, he meant the slowmotion cinematic camera that changes your view leaving you disoriented.

Yet another newfag who doesn't have a clue: I'm not the one acting like I've been here since 2005.

1eyedking: I'm over-protective of my fragile ego. I'm tough shit in the nerd hierarchy, if you challenge that you're a faggot newfag. DnD and Codex 4 life.
