"Decent game but I was expecting more. Possible Spoilers"
Pros: It's a Fallout title and it stays pretty true to the original.
Cons: Characters you talked to aren't very memorable.
Summary: It's great that Bethseda took up the challenge of creating Fallout 3 and while they did a good job it feels like they left out alot of the little things that made Fallout feel edgy. The humor in the game just wasn't there (Where's pip boy?). I used to love reading the little descriptions that came with weapons or other items. The people you meet aren't very memorable either. Aside from Moira in Megaton I didn't really feel anything for most of the others I met.
Item descriptions are gone.
Want to know why the world feels so big? It's because your run speed is horrible.
Feels more FPS then an RPG. (VATS system not as useful as I thought it would be)
I'm a hardcore fan and I still play Fallout, Fallout 2 and yes Tactics so I'm not sure if I just expected more. I'll still play Fallout 3 just to complete all the little quests but I'm hoping if they do a 4th they'll have a better and longer main storyline.
