Fallout 3 and New Vegas were both really good games, the only complaint I have with the series is that you get to max level really early in the game. I hope they raise the level cap in the base game this time.

My son got 3GOTY last night. Doesn't work on 8.1. Tried all the steps I could find on the Steam discussion page.
Anyone conquered this?

i'm in. Fallout 3 is one of my all-time faves.

Kinda got bogged down in new vegas for some reason.....guess I better get back to work on that....maybe a fresh restart is in store!

I've got to get going again on NV. I got stuck on a quest and moved on. It should like my new rig.

I started playing New Vegas this past weekend after having bought the game a year or two ago during a Steam sale. This thread got me to load it up. I played Fallout 3 years ago. I still get a little annoyed by the PiP Boy being a crappy menu system, (I mean, why can't I just hit M for map) but the game is a lot of fun.

Time to make a choice on XB1 or PS4 it looks like.

Fallout is definitely a game I would purchase a console for. I must have logged multiple hundreds of hours on Fallout 3, and Fallout: New Vegas.

This footage looks amazing.

Riding in dropships as a gunner, jump packs on the power armor, etc..

Cant wait to have this game. Week's vacation from work and locking myself up in the man cave for the duration. Wife and kids should still be there when I emerge, and if not, ill just create a new character.

Yup, this will be my first game when I buy a PS4...

This will be what makes me buy a Xbox One.

Hopefully this game will feature an open ended story, and not just end once the final main mission is completed. Ive always hated that. The Elder Scrolls games always continued after the main quest was over, I don't understand how they cant get it right for Fallout.

They ran into the big issue in Fallout 3 (which SERIOUSLY pissed me off the first time I had played) with the game ending abruptly out of nowhere. I was about 55 hours in, decided to play another piece of the main story and during my frequent saving, I staggered all 3 of my saves over all of my previous ones outside of that mission.

Imagine my fury when I realize I just flushed my entire 55 hours down the toilet by entering that quest.

Even dumber was the fact that there was no way around someone dying there. You've got two followers immune to radiation ffs, but I cant let them activate the device?

They fixed it with the Broken Steel dlc that allowed the story to continue past that point, but it was a damn long time coming.

In New Vegas, they made the exact same style of story. Once you play the final battle, the game ends no matter which of the outcomes you choose.

Its super annoying to me as a completist to just constantly have that one mission left undone, because it will end that character and if you want to use that character in the inevitable wave of DLC that is certainly going to be released, you cant have everything done.

You just put together a more than capable PC.

Maybe I'm misreading you.....but I was able to continue after the ending in both previous console Fallout games.

I've JIMP about 30 times today over this.
