Get the PC version and let the mod community fix everything and enjoy the true fallout 3. 


Or just give it a week or so and Bethesda will have it fixed. I'm pretty sure they're good at patching things.

 

By the way guys its good so far. Granted I've only played half an hour, maybe 45 min so far but its been good. I'm gonna get in a couple hours before bed hopefully!

Seriously are guys really saying don't get it because it has an 85? Since when is 85 bad. If you got an 85 on a math test are you going to be upset? Probably not, I'd be ecstatic.

Just like with oblivion and FO3 right? No, they might fix the big ones in the coming months but only the PC version will have them all ironed out.

what exactly is wrong with it?

Just really buggy and lots of technical flaws.

I was reading them yesterday and a lot of the reviewers noted that it caused their X360's to freeze alot. The Joystiq reviewer said it froze more than 3 times while playing.

Sometimes enemies would be locked into the ground.

Loading times are bad even after full HDD Install. It takes about 25-50 secs to load things.

Those kind of issues are bringing down FNV's reviews.

it's  more buggy/glitchy than the first. More so than it should be. Obsidian has done this on a regular basis. Can't speak about this game itself... but I doubt the reviewers are lying about it.

But imo, it will probably patched/modded in the future on PC atleast...  And, if the reviews are correct, then it would be better than the first.

Well I don't even know what technical flaws there are yet. I'm gonna go play it shortly.

i have been playing for a few hours and have encountered no glitches. Though i have installed it to the harddrive so that helps. Also the load times are short for me only like 5 secs to go in or out of a builing so i have no problems to report yet,

I don't understand how you people can play an RPG without a keyboard. There are like 4 buttons on the console controllers. Lol.

Play Demon's Soul and you will understand.

Anyway Demon's Soul is better than Fallout, Mass Effect and Dragon Age IMO (I think it's the best RPG I ever played).



I have been playing for around 6 hours straight now and have only seen one visual glitch,

- a part of a mountain was spiked up into the air in a strange way.

- enemy AI is still reasonably poor, but the game has a lot of cool improvements over the first.

You can pick items up, I mean you can pick anything up and then drop it, things like skulls or garden gnomes or baseballs, this allows for the re-arranging of items.

Also, the hardcore mode really changes the dynamic of the game, and although there was a learning curve to it a little bit, I like it alot now.

I picked up 2 games last week at Toys R us's buy 2 get one free deal, (my friend bought one as well)

we worked it out to be 2 games at $60 = each game price to be $40. So he paid $40 for 1, I paid $80 for 2.

I got NBA 2K11 and Dead Rising 2, never opened Dead Rising and took it back today with the receipt and traded in for fallout.

to my suprise, the lady gave me a $10 gift card upon the "return".

SO for 2 new games, I paid a total of $70 (when the $10 gift card is factored in)

point of this long genesis of text is; The game is great, its more of the same with some refinements to the gameplay mechanics, and if you are looking to get it, Toys R Us has a $10 gift card when you buy it there.



̶3̶R̶D̶   2ND! Place has never been so sweet.


:)  You could also pick everything up in Fallout 3...

Gotta  respectfully disagree, I found Demons Souls very boring, with virtually no story line there was really no reason for me to keep playing.  It was the same thing over and over with no real goal to accomplish other then finishing the game, which didn't mean a hell of a lot with no story lol
