The first Fallout I played was 3 and I did not like it at all. But on a whim the other day I picked up the other 3 Fallout games on Steam, and after realizing that Fallout 1 doesn't run properly on my computer I started Fallout 2 and i LOVE it. I finally get why so many fans of the old games hate what happened to 3.  Don't get me wrong I can see why people like 3 I just also see why people hate the change and I guess I'm one of them now.
