I give it a 9.5 out of 10 then, because it achieves a very convincing simulation of boredom.

There seems to be a very rudimentary weather system included in FO3 Vanilla. If you stare at the sky for a while sometimes you'll notice extra cloud cover w/ different lighting effects. While this isn't rain or snow or what have you, it still means that implementing such effects should be...

One thing that bothered me that I seem to not find in most reviews are the horrible hotkey's on the PC version. Instead of hitting the same 2 keys to get in and out of menus, some require you to hit X, others E, others Tab, sometimes A. While it's a minor gripe, it seems like it's just another...

He's got time. All that needs to happen is a fresh tragedy perpetuated by some rebels... er.. terrorists.. on American soil and for Bush to say, "People, we cannot switch administrations in the middle of an emergency, we'll put off the swearing in for a few months until everything is under...

I'd say it's alright. The music coupled with the brownness makes it seem like a Morrowind rehash with the Oblivion engine. I actually tend to enjoy VATS better than realtime FPS, if only because the realtime mode sucks something awful. Not only that, but the animations are the most atrocious...

It's going to take a lot of in depth hex editing or third party tools to make items atm. If they release tools like they did for Morrowind and Oblivion, however, it will be pretty damn easy to add whatever you want. The question is; does Beth really find it worthwhile to make tools for the...

You can. Just go into your inventory and hold down "1" or whatever button you want to map an item to and click on the item. Voila! Quickslot.

Hey all. Since I have no idea how to hexedit or anything like that and there are no official mod tools yet I figured I'd request a relatively easy mod to fix one of the many things that bother me about Fallout 3. I was wondering if anyone could make a quick mod to remove those stupid...

Oddly enough, it is the crappy music that makes me feel most like I am wandering around another TES game. I seriously had flashbacks of Morrowind when I stepped out of the Vault for the first time.

nice. Maybe now I'll stop feeling like I'm wandering around Morrowind instead of the wastes.

Very interesting that Beth would claim one thing and do another. I remember something... something about retaining the dark humor and irony of some sort of series... then reading certain reviews of said product and seeing that much of that had been left out. Huh. The name of the product...

Agreed, not to mention most developers of RPGs no longer release demos for me to gauge whether my system will competently run anything new. That said, I would much rather play games on my PC if not only for their modding abilities.

With some effort they could certainly update Gamebryo to current gen standards. Look at what Valve has done with the Source engine throughout the years to keep it looking nice. Then again, look at who we are talking about here. Beth has had a completely broken animation engine in just about...

Groin shots.. Oh wait.
