[Official] Fallout 3 - DLC for 360/PC released!


Recommended Posts

Well like the wiki says, they never plan to use it so why bother with it at all. It's just an excuse pretty much whenever they give a game 10/10.
IMHO then for all intents it is a 0 - 10 scale due to the fact they have preemptively decided that no game can or will ever get 11 anyway. It may as well be a 10/10 and the fact they write 11 sounds more like a move by a marketing department.

But glad to see this game going well as is Fable and I hear Farcry to. The three F's were my most wanted games this year beating out even GoW2 so it's great to see all 3 doing well.

The point of this scale is to illustrate that a perfect game is not only one that delivers, but over-achieves. Basically a perfect game is one that does everything right and goes one step further getting an 11/10. I feel it is a great idea and is the only truly purposeful difference in rating systems today. Out of 3 is just a horrid rating system.

so all the reviews say this game is amazing. which makes me want to play it, except there is this gears game and this fable game and this fifa game, and this dead space game, and this nhl game, and this far cry game.... i have no time for any of this. i need more time...

Priorities man. :)

I'd personally wait on FIFA (unless you are a huge football/soccer fanatic) and NHL. Fable 2 is worth getting for sure, and Dead Space and Far Cry 2. But Fallout 3, is just, amazing. Played a bit of it today, and now I'm just waiting for my copy to get unlocked on Steam.

yeah i got fifa already, still haven't touched it cause i am busy with fable (which is the best game i have played so far this year, i haven't been this addicted to an RPG since ff9). I have to play FIFA cause i love soccer (look at the avatar) and NHL is prolly the best sports game ever made (look at the sig). Dead Space is low on the priorities unfortunately, i guess fallout 3 will be after fable or far cry 2 (i hear it sucks though from the people play it on here, so that should turn me of off it for a bit).

Just tried the game for around 30-40 minutes and I was pleasantly surprised!

Loved how you were introduced to the game. Yes it might be somewhat similar to Oblivion with the way you choose skills and 'path' but the story and they way it was handled was just amazing. The first time I saw the environment I was blown away, gorgeous game (Y)

Can't wait to spent some more time with this.

I may pop to Grainger Games tomorrow and see if they want to sell it early...they tend to break release dates

I usually check the shops round my end to see if any are breaking the realease dates, but they never do :laugh:

Have got this pre-ordered at gamehubs but am not in a rush to play it, am having to much fun with Fable 2 at the moment.. then there's Far Cry 2 which i've hardly touched yet so this is gonna be shelved for a lil while..

Holy crap, all these games getting great responses by Sethos?!

Blasphemy!

A buddy of mine traded in SOCOM cuz of the bugs, was geared up to start playing CoD4 again, and the clerk let him have Fallout3 early (this was early last week or so). He's been playing it nonstop ever since on PS3.

banned from xbox live, and i didn't pirate it, i had recovered my GT on my friends xbox, which is modded, and he had the game in without me knowing, and he said it was cool if i played it, but then my other friend said it wasn't

i was just wondering if like because theres some achievements from like 10/25 would get me banned if they saw it

Ok....

No you should be fine. They are linked to gamertags, rather 360's. Let's say your 360 was modded too and you connected with a burned game in there, you have the risk of getting banned. Since you didn't run the burned disk on your 360, you should be fine.

this game runs freaking great on my box everything maxed to ultra 1680x1050

    • Nobody is buying a PS5 only for playing Until Dawn 2. Their loss.
    • If you actually used it instead of responding like a petulant child you might be surprised. I switched from Google some time ago and have been very satisfied.
    • I am one of the first people to use the DXVK technology. In the channel below you can see some videos that I have made using this technology, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey. https://www.youtube.com/@nahum7995/videos Assassin's Creed Odyssey experienced several bugs and technical issues during its first months after release. It launched with its own fair share of funny but frustrating glitches. I ran it on DXVK 9 days after its release and I played it for many hours but didn't see a single significant bug on Linux. Assassin's Creed Odyssey is widely celebrated for pushing the franchise in bold new directions and specifically for nailing several elements better than any other title in the AC series: Player Choice & Branching Narrative, The Mercenary & Cultist System, Mythological Integration, Overpowered Combat Abilities, Open World Exploration But what I'm trying to point out is that this game wasn't quite playable on most windows systems, until a few months after its release when most of the bugs were fixed. However, on Linux it ran completely flawless from day one, although DXVK had seen little development and refinement at the time. What do you think the situation will be in 2026 now that most bugs and glitches of DXVK have been completely eliminated? This is information from Google about these situations that I am quoting. In many cases, using DXVK (a translation layer that converts DirectX 9, 10, or 11 into Vulkan) can result in more stable frame times and higher performance than native Windows rendering. This happens primarily by bypassing driver overhead and multithreading draw calls that were previously restricted to a single CPU core. Older APIs (like DirectX 9 and 11) are largely single-threaded on the CPU side. DXVK translates these calls to Vulkan, which is highly multi-threaded. This reduces CPU-bound stuttering on weaker processors. In certain cases, GPU manufacturers (especially AMD) have significantly better and more modern Vulkan drivers than they do for legacy DirectX. Vulkan gives developers—and in this case, the translation layer—closer control over how resources are held in VRAM. This can prevent micro-stutters and sudden frame drops during chaotic gameplay. Yes, certain games, particularly older DirectX 9 to 11 titles, can run with fewer crashes on DXVK than on native Windows. By intercepting DirectX draw calls and translating them into the modern, highly efficient Vulkan API, DXVK bypasses the limitations and poor driver support that cause instability in aging game engines. PlayStation 1, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 can be easily and perfectly emulated on Linux. In fact, modern Linux emulators offer high-performance upscaling, widescreen patches, and automatic controller mapping out of the box.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 PlayStation 1/2/3 games look drastically better on Linux thanks to resolution upscaling. Furthermore, it is also a fact that you cannot play many fun games on Windows either, isn't it? - The Nintendo Switch has an extensive library of exclusive games. - PlayStation has an extensive library of exclusive games - Android has "mobile-exclusive" games, meaning they are exclusive to mobile devices (iOS and Android) and aren't available on PC or consoles. And finally, it is also the case that in the next five years there will be games that millions of people will say you absolutely must play and that they want to play this specific game that released a few days ago. However, the other side of this story is that currently, absolutely no one cares that they cannot play these upcoming games right now.
