games storyline, lore, jokes, quests, sound, graphics are awesome.
the only thing that is disappointing is the combat gameplay itself. sure its cool and all, but gets old after awhile. nothing really changes in it as you progress in the game.

I know I'm a little late on this post, but Yeah this game took over my soul for a few days.

I practically built my character for VATS, then took the reaper rampage (not sure if that's the exact name) perk. Makes for some fun stuff when the game is on very easy.

If anybody wants a little guide (has tips, a walkthrough and things you might not have known) then Gamespy has a fairly good one.

I wish I couldve had more of a rampage in raven rock. It would be really fun.

I loved it. Finished twice (good guy, bad girl :D ).

I did not really like the main story arc, but the optional quests and the general feel of the world is awesome. I really, really loved the Enclave buildings and high tech stuff. :)

Probably misinterpretation! Melee hitting specific body parts via V.A.T.S is not included in the game mechanics. Although, at least hand to hand should have allowed hitting specific body parts. If I remember correctly, Fallout 2 allowed low blows :(


fallout 2 VATS melee system was exactly the same as ranged. :| hitting someone with a sledgehammer in the head was always cool.

well yeah probably, but this phrase was totally confusing:

dunno why..


I do not understand why it doesnt work with melee weapons but with nades. Well The entire body would be caught in the explosion I heart Tesla armour BTW

Can you use drugs in the game, Laz?


Yup, although the real names were altered. I think it caused controversy over in Australia so Bethesda renamed them. Morphine for example is called Med-X

Great game and it is very true to the series in almost every aspect. It didn't fall victim to bloated expectations and delivered very well.

Sad that the capital area isn't completely free roaming. Gives the metro area a purpose though, so I can't complain.
