I got Oblivion and it was one of my fav games. After watching the demo of Fallout I feel kind of disappointed. Luckily he was playing in the outskirts of a city so that's why it was so uninteresting looking (well besides the awesome graphics for the environments). But the gameplay is what gets me: There is no aiming reticule- I am kind of disappointed from this because it is a good idea but it looks like it is really really hard to aim right as the demo guy missed many MANY time at point blank. Also the VATS just seems pointless. Ya it's cinematic but it's not FUN. All the graphics in the game are amazing but the gun models need a lot of work. That's what I think.

I think it's a brilliant game idea that's coming together very well.

The extra 360 only content seals the deal.

The best part is that it offers you 3rd or 1st person when it comes to controlling the game, I like that they offer you flexibility.

I think it looks outstanding. There is an aiming reticule. How is VATS pointless!?! Maybe this type of game is just not your style but I think it looks like a helluvalot of fun.

I cant what for Fallout 3. It looks like it'll be one of the best games to come out in a while. And the VATS looks sweet.

I wasn't very impressed with the gameplay the movement looked funny and the shooting and the killing didn't impress me much it looks kinda robotic and cheaply done. I actually skipped over most of it during the microsoft briefing I was that underwhelmed with it.

Between Fallout 3, Gears 2, Fable 2, Too Human, Soul Calibur 4, and Mercenaries, as well as other titles, this is looking like one of the best few months for gaming! Fallout 3 looks downright amazing, VAX seems awesome, there is an aiming reticule, watch the gameplay again, you'll see it. Can't wait for it, that and Gears will be two of the best games we'd had played in a very long time from the looks of it.

^ It's "VATS", although it's an honost mistake if you're only going by the E3 demo. Kinda sounds like VAX

There obviously is an aiming reticule and I really thing the demo guy was just a bad shot. Everything about the game looks amazing, can't wait for it. I want a freakin' teddy launcher so I too can make people asplode!

dont forget the gun models may look stale now but the game is still 3 months away from release...thats plenty of time to add polish...and the final stage of most game development is adding polish...also maybe to make it more cinematic he turned the reticle off...there was a reticle in oblivion i dont see why they wouldnt have one here especially since it revoles around guns now not swords...of all the games coming out this year this is by far my most hyped one

I was very excited.....BUT....When they showed the vids where you kill someone with the teddy bear I got turned off. Turned off as if I saw a hot chick with crossed eyes and bucked teeth. I dont know, I try to block it out....but blood came from the enemy when he got hit with a teddy bear? C'mon.

i was sceptical of how much of a flop it was going to be after the first teaser trailer. then after the first showing of the vats (or whatever)..i was like..ok..pretty cool. and then they showed the whole open world..i thought cool...and then the whole radio station..i thought cool..and then the teddy bear launcher...F******* AMAZING.....haha. im sold on this game. and i will be playin this for sure on release day. This is going to be an amazing few months. Games im gettin for sure..too human, fable 2, gears 2, fall out 3, rock band 2, and theres more i cant think of.....CRAZYYYYY AWSOMMMMEE

Compared to moderen games it looks Amazing, Compared to Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 it has nothing on the games and lacks the humor or even a 1/10th of the writing and feeling it has. However most people on this forum I bet have yet to play Fallout 1 or 2 or even know what they were like so for them its cool to swallow this new shallow version of a true classic. Its like reading "Paradise lost" Cliff notes that have been left out in the rain and thinking you read the real story.

P.S The "VATS" System is a offshoot of the oringal games which allowed you to make targeted attacks so if your enemey is using a two handed weapon like say a Rifle or Sledgehammer you could aim for his left arm and try to cripple it so he couldn't attack with his two handed weapon, Also you could aim at the eyes,the head and the groin and etc...Saddly this new "VATS" lacks many of the options for this soo...

I think the outskirts looks great. That is very appealing to me, playing a character who is fighting to survive and gets his supplies and food from run-down diners and stores. It sounds like a great RPG.

I think, like the previous Fallout games, it'll be great. On a personal level, I'm just not digging the VATS system.

I've played every Fallout game produced, and even though this seems to be a completely new revamp on the game, it should be awesome. The story of Fallout is just fantastic.

I disagree completely, the preview that was shown was only a segment. And the game has a lot more to offer, I wish people would just be patient and wait for more gameplay footage.
