    My best moment was shooting the Railway Rifle, long distance no VATS, at a Raider and having it rip his head off and pin it to a wall. All in all, about a 400 metre trip. I was kinda gutted though, because it was at that moment that I knew that nothing this game had to offer was going to be as awesome as that.

    Also, this game has the worst ending(s) of any game ever. Thoroughly disappointed, and tremendously pissed.

    Just beat the game today. Overall I thought it was ok, would have been better if the story didn't move so slowly near the end and that the ending itself wasn't just a slideshow (how lazy can you get, honestly). One big flaw with the ending was that (SPOILER)Fawkes could come with you all the way to the purifier but refused to punch in the code despite him being immune to radiation. What kind of bullcrap is that? And it should be obvious why the ending sucked so much. Fallout 3 had confirmed DLC coming before it was even released, same with GTA4 and Tomb Raider Underworld (both also having noticably bad endings), so I reckon the true conclusion to the story will arrive in the DLC. Of course I could be entirely wrong but its worth noting nonetheless. I detest what developers are doing with DLC these days and always choose to boycott it.

    The thing is though that the DLC apparently contravenes several possible endings. (SPOILER)Your character only actually survives if you send Lyons into the room, and presumably refuses to use the modified FEV. It would have made a lot more sense to have a good ending because that could have fed into the DLC much more easily. I don't think it's anything to do with the desire to sell DLC, and is everything to do with Bethesda's inexplicable inability to do anything good in plot terms since Morrowind.

    Have a ps3 lent to me and obsessively playing Fallout 3.

    Decided not to kill the overseer this time.

    About to escape the vault. I got Butch's tunnel snakes jacket.

    It was amazing, in my opinion. I loved the level up system. It made me happy. And I loved the character creation... the graphics weren't wonderful, but it was really a nice game.

    I feel that it tried to hard to be 'mainstream' but destroyed much of what the first two games so great. =/

    It's a good game, but not nearly as good as it should of been. Fallout is an RPG. Not an RPG/FPS hybrid.
