Re: fallout 3
 
Fallout 3 (got it on xbox 360) looks fabulous but there's something about riding a horse and sword fighting that feels better for me. The one thing I cannot get used to is the maps, they are so hard to read, Oblivion's were much clearer. But the more I play it the better it gets.

For PS3 I got Far Cry 2 and disappointed, now that can be a pain going from place to place for missions. COD WoW is just brilliant. Wish I'd got it for 360 as servers seem better but my mate only has PS3 and I wanted to do Co-op mode.

Dont forget FIFA 09!

Aye at what setting though?

or more importantly what resolution...

1024x768 with medium settings isn't anything near the kind of hardware destroying full settings at 1680x1050 or 1920x1080 with things like soft shadows or reflective water enabled

i can run at 1680x1050 with high settings no AA though... saying that you dont really need it at these resolutions imo (Cant do highest, kills the system 15fps :-? :() and get about 30-40 fps at all times on the 9800GTX. So looks pretty good :)

fair enough, some people actually like to adjust their settings in order to improve the image quality of the game or increase the framerate though;)

i wouldn't take the mick out of someone's hardware unless they were trying to unjustifyably defend it, the phenom does it's job just fine

so anyway... back to fallout 3 - i finally decided to sit down and play for a couple hours tonight and after bit of exploration ended up at the:

***possible spolier***

GNR HQ, finally the game starts to get a bit more interesting, the mutant behemoth was fun and the temptation to ice one of the knights and steal their armour was almost uncontrollable;)

I just been looking at the armour and weapons available in the game. Its not got as many weapons as fallout 2. The armour doesnt look as cool and bulky either :(

The Super mutants dont look at ace as they did in fallout tactics. A shame!

Might give this game a go eventually...
