Behind you.

<a href="http://ve3d.ign.com/">Voodoo Extreme</a> has a really short <a href="http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/previews/40279/Fallout-3-Hands-on">Fallout 3 Hands On</a> dealie where the author spends about as much time talking about taking stimulants to wake up for the event as he does about the game itself. But hey, there's lots of screenshots and possibly a movie you haven't seen.

<blockquote>The demo started with us leaving the Vault; we just had to press a little button and off we went. As you might imagine, being an underground dweller for most of our life, the glare at first was overwhelming. After we rubbed the bloom from our eyes, we ventured forth into the wasteland to see what sort of trouble we could get into. We only had 30-minutes, so there was a limit to what havoc we could create, but I managed to explore the surrounding area a bit, enter a town, talk to a bunch of NPCs, collect a few new weapons and other items of interest, get a couple quests and of course, kill a bunch of radioactive critters.</blockquote>

There you go. There's the beefiest piece of meat in the thing. Don't you feel better educated about the game now?

Not bad, but I thought the 'babies popping out' and cartoon war going on in the advert felt out of place... too cartoonish. It's no Fallout, but, what the heck, I'll probably play it anyway if it gets some decent reviews from a few unbiased people at the Codex saying that it's at least worth playing.

I can count them on one hand. Unfortunate, but, a glimpse of hope. :cool:

Looks pretty fun. I love playing UT '99 and CS. maybe someone will add the "headshot" and "monster kill" from UT and "Go go go" and "fire in the hole" from CS. Forget the RPG, this looks like a fun adventure FPS.

Maybe someone can add an instagib mod too with a shock rifle.. and double jumps and matrix moves and dodge moves too. nice.
