Getting something good on Amazon Prime.

With this (hopefully) and the Expanse they have some decent Sci-fi

Played 1 and 2 many years ago, so familiar with the premise, and this does look rather good!
Wonder if I'll be able to get Mrs UTH into it. I think it'll be a case of "no this looks rubbish" without her giving it any actual thought, then may well end up thinking it's amazing. As long as it is actually amazing!

I'm looking forward to this. I didn't like the combat system in the games, but loved the Fallout world aesthetics, style and sense of humour. This looks (from the trailer) to be bob-on, so I'm all-in!

Yes.

This looks good. Loved the game and it looks pretty close.
Let's hope this is more Last of us and Arcane and less Resident Evil.

I am sure I will hate it, but I have hundreds of hours in F3, F NV and F4...... BUT I am hoping I am wrong..... I really hope so.. I am also hoping expecting little will mean it will be much better than I expect so I will enjoy it.

Know nothing about the game but the trailers look good.

Knew nothing about the Last of Us but really enjoyed the TV series.

Same and same! Watched the new trailer at the weekend and it looks excellent.

Same

I'm hopeful but am keeping my expectations low

Looks decent, if they put similar amounts of time and effort into this as they did on the Lord of the Rings TV show it should be a hit.

Struggled a bit with the games if I'm honest but I'd be well into the TV show especially if it doesn't follow FO3 or 4 main story.

Trailer looked really promising, although have to be honest, the scene they've just released looks a whole lot less promising...

The cinematography and colour grading feels off, it looks like a theme park ride where everything is far too bright and orderly rather than a grimy post apocalypse, somehow cheap and expensive looking at the same time. Plus it has that god awful MCU "well that just happened" dialogue that seems to infest everything these days. Ghouls should sound like they smoke 60 a day and I don't recall the BoS use voice changers or Iron Man hand boosters either?

Fair points there, not sure that clip means it's going to be a bad show though. But you never know......

Is this another annoying "1 episode per week" release?
