    IGN gives it 9.6

    I am compiling my own, but after one night of play this is a very solid buy.
    It's a totally different type of game than F1 and F2, but it does nothing to disgrace the memory of those two. The tone is right so far, and the gameplay is fun and engaging.

    On the PC, it doesn't suffer from consolitis. Nuff said there.

    The V.A.T.S. gives it the feel that F1 and F2 had. I'm glad that is there. Plus the ability to just do combat the good old fashioned way. I have been flip flopping between 1st person and 3rd person view. I'm saving up the cash to build a Rock-it Launcher now :-)

    Hold down the "R" key to holster.
    Hold down the tab key to turn on your flashlight.

    Here's a 'cheat' for you.

    Hit ~ to enter console. Then type "setessential 6a772 1" without the quotes. This will make "Dogmeat" invincible. When he 'dies', he merely is unconscious for a bit.

    Man, I wish I had known that one sooner. I ate Dogmeat a few days ago. :-(

    Paradise falls

    Wups, I walked into town without getting permission and ended up attacked. I obliterated the town.

    Somehow I found this satisfying, since it's a town of slavers.

    Hope there wasn't something important there that I missed!

    I did the same thing. I didn't mess around. I just wiped them all out. Was a tough battle though as there are so many of them and they are quite defensive.

    Ditto - I just wiped them all out. Missile launcher worked well to clear the tower and surrounding area

    I finished Fallout 3 this weekend. I was a bit disappointed with the ending. Just a bit too dramatic for my tastes I guess. Over all though, this game was way worth the money. I am starting over playing an evil karma character now. I might check out the expansions too...Broken Steel sounds fun and raises the level cap too.
