Hey Guys, Ive heard great things about Fallout 3 since it came out, and it looks really intresting.

Ive been wanting to buy it but I dont know if i might end up Not liking it.

Its exactly like Oblivion with guns{Ive Heard}, and I didnt like Oblivion. I know it takes time to level up and stuff, but sometimes it just gets me frustrated.

Should I go ahead and buy It or rent it and see if i like it first?

It plays like Oblivion, but it is a lot better and a lot less repetitive.

no its not oblivion with guns. the combat is completely different. you can pause time and cue up attacks and watch them play out in slow motion. If you like open world RPGs, go for it. There's over 100 hours of gameplay in this, and tons to see that isn't just possible to describe. But don't get it now. wait for the game of the year edition to come out. It comes with all 5 expansion packs (each adding about 4-5 hours to the game) and fixes some bugs.

Rent it. Never buy anything you're not sure about. Me personally? I loved it...and I have the Platinum to prove it.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I own and play the entire game, DLC included on another system and if you are going to get it get the GOTY edition.

It's worth the buy, but as everyone else has said, wait for the GoTY edition and really get your moneys worth.

What's the difference between normal and GOTY edition? Concept art? I don't need it.

Available DLC for the game is included on disc. So basically, you're paying $60 and essentially getting what amount to more like $90-100 depending on the pricing of the DLC. I don't know. I'm a PS3 only owner. We still haven't gotten it yet. :? That, and I'm too lazy to see what the MS price scheme was and translate MS Points to dollars.

Fallout 3 is imo one of the best games ever ,really enjoyed it. Played all the dlc and they are great and worth the money. My advice is to create a character with a fighting style you like, for example if you like to sneak up on enimies and kill them with one hit then create a char that does so. Also do all the side quests and go for trophies/achievments for all of them and then finish the main quest you will enjoy it more that way as the side quests are best part of the game.

why would you rent Fallout 3? it's too deep to get hold of within a few days. oh and TC it's an amazing game, either wait for the GOTY for PS3 to come out or get the PC version (mods make it awesome)
