" This all makes me so disappointed I've never played the first 2 Fallout games. Darn it, man. They need to bring them to XBLA. I'd totally buy them both. "
Any old ass cheap computer or laptop will play it, you could probably find something under a $100 or just borrow one from somebody. "
They're about $12 for both on Good Old Games, and probably just as cheap on Steam or something else. I wanted to play them, as well, just never got around to devoting the time to them. They're also a slight deviation from Fallout 3, which was the first one I played, so I probably wasn't in the right mindset to play them when I tried the first time.
A few folks in the forum are posting that they've just received an update on XBOX. Can anyone else confirm this? This is a pretty quick turnaround for something like this, which is nice, considering the noise that's been out on the internets.
Good to see Obsidian/Bethesda/Whoever else being proactive about this. Although, I guess this is a bit reactive...
" The only thing I hate about it is the fucking sales. I want to get Disciples II. I DON'T EVEN LIKE TURN BASED! "
I feel like I'm the kid that decided not to smoke when everyone else started doing it in middle school. You know it's probably bad for you, your parents have told you so, but you're SO not cool if you're not doing it.
The PC version will definitely get patches quicker than the console version, only because of the approval process, but I'm a bit partial to playing on the console. Not that I think it looks any better (Fallout isn't exactly known for its graphics) but there's something nice about playing on a 50" plasma instead of a 20" computer monitor. That's just me, though. I prefer to play most of my games on console.
It's not like this game really benefits from Mouse+Keyboard, either, since it's not really a shooter. You'll be spending most of your time using VATS, so you don't really need to precision aiming that you get with a mouse.
@captain_clayman: There's already patches en route, so I wouldn't wait until the DLC comes out. You'd be better off getting it once it's been patched and leveling up a bit, otherwise the DLC will probably be unplayable until you do so.
I'm extremely happy with my new MBP. It's constantly getting new games through Steam, and what you can't play on OS X, you can play in a boot-camped Windows. The hardware is amazing and OS X is pretty darn great too. This should mean a lot, considering I was a PC user for almost 20 years.
" "Technical issues aside..." Isn't this like saying, "Man, my wife may have 3 tits, a dick and 4 eyes, but damn is she a good ride!" "
Ok....but it's still a woman right? I'm in. "
Yes, I also might be able to overlook said extra appendage for the third titay.
But seriously, I'm 100% positive that I'll gladly be able to overlook the bugs, glitches and lock-ups for another couple of romps through the wasteland. From what I've played so far, I believe that even more. I've even had one lockup, and only wanted to get back into it, even more.
