I'm gonna have to check it out.

Hate it for haters:

Rating	Description
out of 10	click here for ratings guide
9.5	Presentation The atmosphere and style are everything you could ask for and more. A few bugs and camera issues keep things from perfection.
9.0	Graphics The landscapes are wonderful. The character models and animations could be a lot better.
9.5	Sound Excellent voice acting and a soundtrack that completely fits the game's mood. The sound effects aren't bad either.
10	Gameplay A rare combination of excellent combat and deep role-playing.
9.5	Lasting Appeal A more focused experience than much of what Bethesda has created in the past that begs to be played for hours and hours. This is one game you won't soon forget.
9.6 Incredible	OVERALL (out of 10 / not an average)

 Awesome,  the only thing so far that needs to convince me is that slow shoot system.

Also, just to reiterate, I've had this preordered for months, lol.

Saying that now is like an ego boost.

I'll wait for what the No Mutants Allowed members have to say about the game. I don't want to get caught up in another mediocre game from Bethesda (Oblivion, terribly disappointing)

Please, if reviews determined my opinions about anything my 360 would be my favorite console and I would worship Oblivion. Neither of which is remotely true.

Since the main complaint about the game seemed to be immersion, I figured you might be interested in this line:

Lasting Appeal
A more focused experience than much of what Bethesda has created in the past that begs to be played for hours and hours. This is one game you won't soon forget.

However, if you are referring to my comment "hate it for haters" then I was more referring to those people who seemed to "hope" that Fallout 3 would fail, instead of those who determined they weren't interested because of the developer. Those people aren't haters, but they have made an assumption that Fallout 3 is too much like Oblivion to be any good in their eyes. Now, that assumption may hold true, but then again, it may not.

yup, because I will soon be getting an x-box 360, and this type of game has always been awesome to me.
