[...] I blame derivative design. If MMORPGs were something more than grinds, perhaps they could have been something great. It’s this desire for them to be something more that causes me to keep trying them, long after I knew better. [...]

Compared to EVE Online, it’s single player, but you can control several ships at once (without buying multiple accounts and multiboxing) and the combat is actually the first person visceral cockpit-based combat that a lot of people wished EVE Online had.

Hmm. Possibly I was a bit harsh. A bad day..

And seriously – its been a long time since any software house has brought out anything as quality as Fallout 3. But I eat humble pie on the more extreme parts of my commentry.. A bit over the top!

Tricky call about whether or not I should have approved that last comment. On one hand, everyone is entitled to their opinion. On the other hand, apparently expressing your opinion about Fallout 3’s ending means “YOU ALL SUCK” according to this guy.

What a bunch of winging losers.. The game is probably the best game I have ever played in over 30 years of quality gaming right down to the original Ultima series of the 80s.. And the silly little girls winging on this page make me sick. You’ve no idea how good you’ve got it and how much of an amazing game Fallout 3 really is (I suspect you bunch of girls have never played the predecessors either, let alone classics like Dark Sun or Might and Magic). YOU ALL SUCK..

Oh and to answer all your pricy little girl crying – BUY THE EXPANSION PACKS LOSERS. Then you can have your nice little endings AND carry on playing to sell all your kit and level up to infinity etc etc.

PS Get girlfriends and jobs too – it will help you lead happier and more fulfilling lives away from just your Xbox and porn on the PC..

Actually, doing a bit of research on motivation, it seems that making promises (and getting upset about not seeing them through) is perhaps one of the worst ways to motivate one’s self. It’s far better to simply undo the negative thinking with the activity you want to do that is putting one off it. By forcing myself to do something, I make it seem like it’s something one needs to force themselves to do.

Same here…Heard great things about the Fallout brand and decided to try F3 for my playstation. All of that work! I got all my heavy weapons and my power armor up to 100% for this?!?! Not to mention the obvious plot holes with faulks (radiation proof my ass).

Very disappointing…
