Screw fall out three. Why have you forsaken classic gameplay just so you can create another oblivion knock off.

honestly,idiots like you hetman need to just die and shutup.Get over it,this isn't Square Enix...we aren't still obsessed with turn based comban 15 years after it should be relevant. The game needed to evolve,if you don't like them making it simply don't buy it,its either this or it was never getting picked up to begin with.

Turn based would be uber boring, its all about 3rd person RE4 style and alone in the dark gameplay. Hopefully its like that and not 1st person and hopefully its not like oblivioun I really dont care for that game for some reason seems way outdated to me for some reason

Todd Howard, the mastermind behind The Elder Scrolls and Fallout series? Ahahaha. That must be one of the most stupid and uninformed affirmations ever.

@pause1

Yes, I absolutely agree with your assessment of turn-based combat. In fact, I believe the revolutionary discovery of real-time gameplay (and as we all know, real-time combat is a fresh invention and not something that has been around since the very beginning of gaming - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S pacewar!) should have ramifications beyond digital entertainment. For example, board games such as chess or Risk should conform to this revolution of gameplay and be played in real-time from now on. Yes, it is high time real-time gameplay went the way of literature and theatre - due to popularity of movies, you don't see any more books being written or any theatre plays getting staged, now do you?

Likewise, I see nothing objectionable about Todd Howard being called mastermind behind Fallout series. I mean, no-one would object to Tim Burton being labeled the mastermind behind Planet of the Apes, now would they?

From where I'm standing, if Oblivion is any indication of the kind of fun one can expect in Fallout 3, then the guy playing checkers is guaranteed to have way, way more of it.

Hey Joseph K, can you customize your character in checkers? How about finding phat loot in hundreds of generic caves? How about having your dog find ammo for you? I thought not.

Go ahead and have your strategy and thought. We'll all be shooting mutants, holding down W for 1/2 hour at a time, and suffering though the poorly-written dialog strewn with a annoyingly adolescent levels of profanity. I. E. MORE FUN. Get with the times, fossil.

Is that bitterness I smell?

Cry & rant all you like.

Fallout 3 will win a plethora of "RPG of the year" awards & make Bethesda a king's ransom.

Ignore it or savor it.

Fallout 3 will be an overwhelming success!
