Really, youtube videos and bad amazon reviews are what you're going off? You can find those for any version of the game and they typically come only the biggest complainers. Have you even tried playing at anywhere near the current patch level? I'm hardly the only person whose had relatively...

Maybe if the only Fallout you've ever played was Fallout 3. I was almost offended with how lightly they took the use of nuclear weapons in that game and I'm not at all surprised it was censored in Japan. Nuclear weapons aren't funny and the destruction they cause is a big part the of the...

I've played through the PS3 version 7 times, the first before even the first patch came out. Obviously it has bugs and freezes, but it is more than playable. At the current patch level it is probably more stable than Fallout 3.

This is one my favorite aspects of Fallout, Fallout 2 and New Vegas and its not something a ton of other games do. Instead telling a story or telling a story that branches at a set points, the writing of these games focuses more on creating a framework to define your own character and create...

I was disappointed with Human Revolution. I found the writing and the choice/consequence to stuff to be really lacking, especially playing it right after New Vegas and Alpha Protocol. The story just seems to try to jam as many cyberpunk cliches in as possible. I didn't like the leveling...

Lumping New Vegas and Fallout 3 together isn't entirely accurate either. Sure there are some people that don't like New Vegas because the first person interface, but for me I think its better than Fallout 2, which just has too much nonsense and pop cultural references sometimes and the story...

I don't mind one way or another they are in the game or not, they wouldn't really be out of place if they were in the game, but at the same time given other weapons available it isn't missing them too much either. The main thing I would like crossbows for is for a ranged poison delivery...

What I find creepy is that the kids of little lamplight reproduce enough to sustain their population by age 18 and then are forced to abandon their children to be raised by other children in a cave next the source of the super mutants.

I'd like Charisma to modify fame/infamy gains and losses, Perception to modify your accuracy based on distance, to see a Legion settlement that is away from the front lines, reusable throwing weapons, a base where you send companions that you can fast travel to without going through any extra...

I currently live near the Glow, so I better move if a war seems imminent. Before that I lived in the Mojave Desert . So I guess there isn't much mystery left for me.

I'm playing on a console, so holding out for a mod isn't going to do anything. I already have the classic pack so I start with just about the best weapon of the group already anyway and a good armor, so it won't change the game balance significantly, but it would be nice to start the game with...

This isn't universally true for every group in the game though, most notably Caesar's Legion where there aren't enough guns to go around for all of their soldiers. If I was a machete wielding front line grunt a bow or crossbow wouldn't seem to be that bad of choice as a second weapon. The same...

Ill advised parkour without saving is something that sets me back pretty often, because most of the time the game's poor physics allow you to get away with it, so I keep doing it, but every now and then a cliff is just a little too steep.

Assuming they are available at the start of the game, yes. I've played through the game several times now (I tend to do a lot of shorter runs through the game to experiment with a lot of different character types) and really could use a change of pace at the start of the game. Later in the...

I'm not going to buy Gun Runner's Arsenal, but I'm not really the target audience. For the console players that love Fallout 3 though it should be very popular and make them a lot of money. People who are more interested in role playing than running around and killing things, aren't going to...

The Chinese were using repeating crossbows over 2000 years ago, its definitely something that can be crafted with relatively low technology and would be a good for people like common wastelanders or low rank Legion grunts who don't have access to better weapons. It certainly makes more...

I don't really know how many hours, but I've played through 7 times, although most my games are usually shorter ~30-40 games, so my guess is probably around 250.

On my most recent time playing through the game, I skipped Nipton by going to Vegas early through Hidden Valley and Scorpion Gulch. There are a few other ways of bypassing Nipton as well such as the path with the falling rocks and bear traps near Neil's Shack or Primm Pass. I didn't kill...

As retarded as Fallout 3 is at certain points, I did mostly like it for a short term distraction. There was a certain charm to running the Mall wearing Power Armor and Abraham Lincoln's Hat and just killing whatever mindless bullet sponge came my way and the amount of pointless caves, tunnels...

People that surrender to the Legion peacefully don't necessarily share the same fate as those that fight against it; for example look at some of Legions endings for Primm and Goodsprings. These places are largely left alone unless they attempt to fight back. In regards to technology, Caesar...
