I loved Fallout 1 & 2, AND Oblivion. So I guess I'm going to love this game either way.
Same here. Looking forward to nabbing this game tomorrow night/morning/whatever.

Even though I liked Oblivion/Fallout more than Fable 2, it's just terrible timing for me. (midterms) I can't do what I did for Fable 2. (amg midnight release! oh whoa it's noon already? I guess i'm sorta hungry.)

I'll pick it up at midnight release and play it on the week after :(

You should all vote for Resistance 2 to be game of the year. Because americas ass needs a saving in it. I think thats a gaming first for FPS's. Plus the impeccable AI and great weapons.

Lets say for arguments sake Blizzard was making Fallout 3. Would people say it's Diablo with guns? Probably. That is exactly why that argument means nothing to me.
Heh,

'WarCraft is StarCraft with lazers!'

'Colonization is Civilization with wagon trains!'

Which, yeah--maybe that will be the most apt comparison. F3 might turn out to be to F1/2 what Civ:Colonization was to Colonization, at least based on what I've heard about the five games.
But arn't there lasars in StarCraft used by the protoss interceptors.(Well lasar beams but you get the point.)

Ooops--those are wrong way 'round. Use the converse for WC and SC.
Ah. Then yes you have a point then.

Nah, see I've actually already downloaded and played Fallout 3, and I found it to be a completely empty experience and really over hyped.

Of course when I played it they were calling it Oblivion.
He's not serious, he's just making a bad and unfunny joke because he hates Oblivion

Uh-huh...I'm gonna go ahead and pretend that you've played at least 2 other games, because chances are, one of them will have had this

Have you seen the AI in the R2 Co-Op beta? No? If I didn't know they were computers I would say they could be players. They do not stand in the open, As soon as you start shooting at their way a regular one will head for cover instead of standing out in the open.(If there is cover.) The AI cover each others back, Like for instance Two will sit back to back to each other over a teamates corspe so no one can revive him. If a group of four move towards you some rush and some stand on top of a hill while the rushers distract you. The regular chimera will hide behind a big guys shield. Also the AI will actually flank. For real, I never thought I would see it but they do. This is not static flanking like in most games, But when the enemies spawn through there teleporter some will head directly at you but others will flank depending on if your teams all focused in one direction and such. Very dynamic. I have not seen such good AI in a long time.

And after thinking about it. The AI in Call of Duty 4 are alright but I don't see them using any real tactics. They are really static feeling, Like you can instantly know what they are going to do. You run up to them they with smack you, You stay back they will shoot at you. They do not change cover and yeah..

It's released coming friday in Europe, where I live. I upgraded my computer especially for Fallout (and of course other games too, but primarily Fallout)
