No way, this game is amazing. The dialogue screens are reminiscent of Oblivion, but that's about it.

Its pretty fun so far. Love the voice actors they got for it.

Ron Perlman as the Narrator.
Liam Neeson as your father.
Malcolm McDowell as the President of the US/Leader of the Enclave.

Definitely worth the money, but it carries over so many of the problems that plagued Oblivion. I expected to hate it, didn't like it at first, but have been warming up to it today.

I've been dreading and anticipating it. I can honestly say, I'm content with what I have and hope to be playing this 10 years from now. Just as I have played the originals.

Worth the 79.99 for my bobble head, dvd, book and lunchbox.

Played it a bit past the tutorial. Seems identical to Oblivion so far.

Except with shitty inexplicable performance drops, that is.

This is the same game as Oblivion, only leveling is less stupid, and you can blow people's heads apart. And there are guns. And lovely apartments!

fucking fire ants jesus christ those fuckers just dont die.

I blew through most every stim pack I had, every piece of ammo I had, and was using trails of land mines near the end there.

Then I found Rivet City and bought more shotgun shells than I'll ever need. I love blowing people's heads apart.

Get a house or murder a family and take their house... then sleep in their bed whenever you need to rest up.

To heal, use stimpaks, drink water, eat food, sleep on beds, talk to doctors, etc. Regular mattresses just lying around in the world will heal you also. You only get radiation sickness every 200 rads your level increases, so there's not much to worry about there. You'll usually find rad-away before that happens, so go ahead and slurp up the irradiated puddles wherever you need to.

Also, if you get in this situation, the healing really is preferable in the short run even if it gives you radiation poisoning, which will just decrease your endurance and agility by one or something in the first degree.

Press T . I am assuming you're playing PC, because mods are only a matter of time.

The Rock-It launcher is the greatest weapon in video game history. Exploding a raider's head with a bottle of Whiskey is incredible.

You can get Lucas Simms hat and coat without having Megaton hate your guts by getting The Power Of Atom started from Burke, then telling Simms about Burke's plan. They'll start having a shootout and you can then kill Simms and take his stuff.

Yeah, but the only real reason to have the Apartment or Suite is for item dump space, free purified water from the butlers, and the nuka-cola machine to de-rad nuka-cola bottles.

It sucks you can't Sandman Kill him, because he never stops patrolling the main "road" in Megaton.

A few times I've seen him standing all by himself on an overlook above his house that I can't find any way to get up to.

It looks like the ass end of an airplane and there seems to be a way to walk through it, but there's no steps up inside his house.

Skaw
posted 11-02-2008 08:22:01 PM
Well, either way, I've never seen him sleep.

Also, you can still potentially get an apartment by getting him and Mr. Burke to kill eachother. Going to Tenpenny, you can get a quest chain about dealing with a group of ghouls that want to be residents there. You can choose to have the ghouls assault Tenpenny Tower through it's basement, and the lead ghoul Ron offers you the suite.

The quest is available when disarming the bomb, but you don't get the suite I believe. So I'm also not entirely sure if Ron offers you the suite again without having it for blowing up Megaton in the first place.

If you get Burke to kill him, you still get an apartment for disarming the bomb. You just get it from the sheriff's son instead of the sheriff himself.

Also enjoy blowing peoples legs off and beating them to death with a baseball bat. Or creeping up behind them and beating them to death with a baseball bat. Or trying to throw stuff using grab item and hit it with a baseball bat.

Yeah but it rather sucks that you can't bat them in the eyes/groin like the old games, doesn't it?
