There are people that hate on Fallout? Thats crazy talk :lol
There have been exactly three Fallout games: 1,2 and 3 - and they are indeed all masterpieces.
These three game have established a very unique gameworld with a flavor and atmosphere all its own.
Having not played the first 2 i will not comment, but when i go out and pay full price for a game on launch, and the game constantly locks up my PS3, freezes on every notification, has glitches that make you restart the game, constantly getting stuck in rocks and some not even let the game finish, as well as so many other major bugs, i would hardly call that a masterpeice. Add to that a weak combat system and dull story and you have a game that is far from a masterpeice.
Its a shame as well, as i loved F3's setting and the idea of the game, but it was returned within a few days. I tried and stuck with it but its constant bugs were just annoying. Will try the GOTY edition once its dropped in price as i think they have fixed a lot of bugs, but man was i burnt. Because bottom line, it was unfinished. At the time i was reading through Bethesda's forum and their were complaints on all 3 versions, such as GOAT test not working among many others. Because the game was not finished. Their is no excuse from devs to let a buggy mess of an unfinished product out the door, with the frame of mind that they can patch things later. What happens if you bought F3 but didnt have a net connection? You would be stuck with a game that is so buggy its almost unplayable. I mean, inmaging getting to the end and a bug lets you not finish and have to start from scratch.
