The game is your basic FPS with a Oblivion feel to it (same devs - duh) but very... upgraded. For one although you still have the basic melee weapons such as swords, knives, and hammers (etc) you now have GUNS. The targeting system is just a simple reticle in the screen but you have whats called the VATS system which pauses combat, and let you choose either what body part to attack (you can figure out which body part does the most damage or what happens if you say, shoot a leg). There are so many weapons you can choose from but ammo can be limited and your weapons can still break (although you can repair them yourselves if you have items of the same type since you can break down one item to repair another). Oh and you can also make custom weapons like a flaming sword, a dart gun, or a weapon that shoots rubbish you find in the world. All in all I haven't even bothered with the main quest yet since as soon as I finish one sidequest it seems I'm immediately tasked with another one I can't refuse. Watch out for that radiation!
