It's from a well-known Dutch gaming site.. In the link there is a video which shows leaked footage of the PS3 version of the game. Robert Bowling talked about a big announcement earlier, and it's likely that it will be about this. The third person option will not be for the whole game, but for a few modes.. I can't say I like it..

Thoughts?

It's an OPTION. You have no right to dislike it because it's not forced upon you.

Larad, I know it's an option, I said it myself. The thing is: I was hoping that this 'big reveal' would be alot more then this...

Well he said it would change the game, and he was right. Dont know if I would prefer it to first person. Ill have to give it a try.

Well it doesn't change the game actually... Fallout 3 didn't change when I switched from 3th to 1st person.
