Selfish Fallout3 plug

[Ldub]

I have a PS3, but I am just not so keen on these types of games on the console...its all about keyboard and mouse. If you could hook a keyboard and mouse up to a PS3 I would have bought it already!

Dude...you CAN, if the game supports keyboard/mouse functionality...

^Yeah adding the keyboard/mouse to a PS3 is pretty easy really

[Hotsauce]

PS3 will support bluteeth mice or keyboard, or usb connection.

As for the game...

It plays much like reskinned Oblivion. Character here needs items from other side of map sort of thing. The items and scenes are excellent, the movement of the NPC's and opponents is a little stiff.

I do like the idea that you choose your role of good or evil, much like Deus Ex, it determines final outcome.

Once you figure out that you NEED to use R2 for effective combat its much easier to play. I used scoped .44, and sniper rifle exclusivly, and took down every opponent with them easily. I was a little disapointed that the game ended when it did, and I wasn't able to finish the rest of the world. I'm replaying now from an earlier save.

I played 'good' on the first way through, I'm going to try it again as evil.

I still need to pick it up. I got it to a little VX mod project that cut in to my gaming time. I’ll post the mod later.

What John is talking about (R2) is VATS. Strategic targeting system that allows you to set up shots and get a bullet-time style playback of your attack. Good fun really, and IMHO, never gets old.

I just beat Fable II, Lost Odyssey, and Infinite Undiscovery so I am gonna get cranking on Fallout 3 now to get myself some achievements. If you play on 360, my tag is "VXSS". Just started playing it last night and made my character "Obama", who has a very decent resemblance, heh. Saving the world, one mutant at a time!

Not to take anything away from Fallout 3 truly a great game, but I just got Little Big Planet, and played for hours with some buddies of mine and I can honestly say I have never had that much fun and laughed so hard in my life, that game is the most entertaining game I have played to date. Two thumbs way way up, and Resistance 2 is phenomenal as well.

HOLD THE PHONE! So you are saying that there are games that you can use keyboard and mouse with on the PS3? I mean, I know the devices can be hooked up to the PS3, but I thought it was a problem to use keyboard and mouse with most games?

PS - Yeah, I saw some stuff about Little Big Planet on G4 and I really couldn't understand what all the hub-bub was about. I guess I will just have to play it to find out. In a nut shell, what is so fun about it?

PPS - I just finished playing the Left For Dead demo on Steam. I enjoyed it a lot. I am debating whether or not to buy it. I just don't wanna spend $50 on a video game at the moment...

Well I started playing Fallout 3 last night and couldn’t stop playing entail about 5am. The world is massive and so open. It an RPG_FPS, awesome game so far and I love my dog.

Hmmm... I got Fallout 3 from Santa, but I haven't installed it, yet. I'm afraid I'll 1) run out of disk space and 2) play until 5am.

Well I finished the game a couple days ago. It took me awhile to figure out that QuiGon was my dad. Very cool game. I love how it combines the open world envierment with the occasional action packed linear game play. It’s definitely the best game I’ve played this and last year with left4Dead coming a close 2nd. BART! You do know that Fallout3 was designed specifically for you right?

P.S. I do have one request. EXPANSION!!!

BART! You do know that Fallout3 was designed specifically for you right?

I have always looked at the FallOut games and known that I would probably like them. However, I am always stuck in the same way I am right now, that is, with an outdated PC that need more video power. For some reason, I have always been on the Half-Life upgrade schedule...that is, when Half-Life came out, I bought a new PC, when HL:2 came out, a new PC. So, when is HL:3 coming out? That's where I will probably upgrade.

And I STILL need to buy LFD.
