Fallout 3 complete, review coming tomorrow ... maybe
Nick Chester | 5:13 PM on 10.27.2008 22 comments


After two weeks, I've finally completed Fallout 3 (Xbox 360). No, that wasn't me playing every day for eight hours, but I had played off and on since the game arrived on my doorstep. Today alone, I plowed through six or seven hours worth of gameplay just to see my game to its conclusion.

Before I actually sit down and write the review, there are a few things I need to take care of first.

- I need to pop in the PlayStation 3 version and make sure that it works (read: see if there are any major differences, graphic or otherwise).

- Head out to Washington D.C. to cover the Best Buy/Bethesda's Fallout 3 event, freeze my ass off, take pictures, and talk to the Bethesda folks. (I will ask them why I couldn't (spoiler) during the (spoiler), because it would have been awesome.)

- Sleep.

Because the daily flow of the site doesn't write itself, I'll do my best to getting around to writing a proper review tomorrow (the embargo lifts at 12:01am, but that ain't happening, suckas). Some stuff might come up, and I won't get to write it until tomorrow night. Oh well.

I can't say too much about the game (embrgo, ya'll), but I'll say this: if you're already planning on buying the game, I sure as hell wouldn't talk you out of it.

Excuse me?

No.

I'm a gamer. I'm impatient. I want the review now.

I'm calling 8/10. Also, can't wait. I think I'll be picking up the game either way, but Destructoid reviews are always the best.

Only if the review is 9 or higher. Otherwise, don't even bother, Chester. Don't even bother.

REAL journalists reviewed it 3 weeks ago at a liquor-laced 'review event' that featured topless dancers, clowns, and a bed made of gold.

In your review can you address whether it is as funny as the first two games? That is if you are familiar with the original rpgs.

Real reviewers got a dump truck full of cash from Bethesda to give it 11/10.

REAL reviewers bought me a copy of the game, PS3 wise.

But only if you're already planning on buying it? Not if you're undecided?

Your words are twisted with hidden, deceitful meanings. I've got my eye on you...
