    Pleas be honest on Fallout 3 for the ps3 version I been reading alot of negative review for the Goty edition and I was wondering is all of this really true how the game could freeze and the frame rate drop so much that you have to stop every hour and reboot your ps3. Just want to know if it is Playable

    I would no because I bought the X360 version. But if you have a choice go for the PC or X360 versions.

    I dunno 'bout the GOTY, but the regular version plays fine and doesn't have as much screen tearing or color explosions (dunno the technical term for that) as the 360 version. 
     
    Very playable.

    It's very playable.  I watched a friend play the GOTY edition on PS3 for several hours without any graphical problems.  But like any other game of its nature, it's certainly not a bad idea to save frequently.

    @Carnin:  Like most things on the Internet, the supposed issues with the game are completely overblown. The game is not only playable, but just as enjoyable as any other platform. So what if the drawing distances don't go to the horizon like on the PC. The supposed tearing is next to invisible. These observations are after near 60 hours and counting of play time of the PS3 version.

    I have the PS3 version and had almost no problems, the game could freeze up on me, but that was only when I played it for 5-10+ hours straight. I could also let the game stay on for a couple off hours while I was out or something and come back and play it without problems.
     
    So yes the game is very playable on the PS3.

    I've had a lot of freezing problems with the Mothership Zeta quests.
