Fallout 3

I’ve just unwrapped the new copy of Fallout 3 that popped through my letter box.  I had to order a new one because my cousin borrowed my original copy about six months ago and admitted a couple of months ago that he’d broken it by moving his Xbox while the game was playing.  I got sick of waiting for the replacement he promised me and ordered one myself on Sunday night.  I love how speedy Amazon is.

So, I may end up spending a fair bit of time on this in the next few days.  I wasn’t very good last time, to say the least.  Molerats were the definition of a tough enemy, to me.  I never did get the chance to get very far though because everyone wanted to borrow it so I ended up swapping for games like Infinite Undiscovery which I really didn’t get on with.

Anyway, I’m playing Lost Odyssey for now, mainly because I can’t be bothered to get up and change discs, but I’ll be sure to pen some of my feelings on my Fallout 3 experience when I do start playing again.

Watch this space!

No, THIS one –>                         ;)

EDIT. Evening: I’ve just put the disc in and I’ve just been impressed by the box, disc and booklet artwork.  I love that the booklet has been printed as a ‘Vault Dweller’s Survival Guide’.  The entire concept’s genius and it shows great attention to detail.

EDIT midnight the next day: Woo!  I just got my first one-shot kill on a raider in the Super Duper Mart, using manual aiming with a hunting rifle.  One shot in the head and a critical hit because I was hiding.  Oh the happiness of this bunny!  That just about makes up for the game letting me get stuck on a shelving unit after I spent the last hour clearing the place out.
