Anyone else getting this on the 31st?,
i loved fallout 1 & 2 great games, i amm a little worried that this one may not have the same feel as the old ones,
but hopefully it will be great.

if you have never played the first two i highly recommend them.

I think I'll be getting this... purely off the reputation of Bethesda Softworks - (makers of Morrowind and Oblivion)

I like a nice big serious RPG to get my teeth into. Never get enough time to play them but worth a punt.

Hopefully it will have as much mod support as Morrowind and Oblivion as well. Some great mods for Morrowind especially the Wizard's isle one.

I've been waiting for this for ages now and I've not even played the first two, just look like such a good game.

I'd ignore the bad press it's been getting on other websites, thats just from fanboys of the first two games who think that because Bethesda did Morrowind and Oblivion then this will automatically be "Oblivion with guns". Probably going to be the best game of the year.

Never played the first 2 so will get this as a tester on PC before venturing on to the Xbox version.

its a completely different game to the other. the first 2 were kind of RTS/RPG, this one is just oblivion with guns.

I had had this on pre-order for months, as a long-time fan of the Fallout series.

But then I buckled last Friday and bought Dead Space. I get precious little gaming time (having kids does that to you....) these days so didn't see the point of buying both, and hence cancelled my F3 pre-order figuring I'd pick it up in a few weeks second-hand.

I can see it's going to be a struggle to try to resist temptation, say "Sod it..." and then go and buy a copy on Friday.....
