I have it on the PC and I've played it for about 3 hours. I wouldn't say it's boring but there are many other games that are better. The story is supposed to be great once you get right into it though.

if you do get into far cry be prepared to spend time doing everything. its not instant gratification (except for starting large bush fires with molotovs) but the story is superb and the graphics are jaw dropping!

Call of Duty 5 is good, not sure it is as good as Cod4 though, the gameplay I kept waiting for something interesting to change or the scenary to stop being Green Green Green.

Fallout 3 is just incredible, you either love it or hate it. I hated it at first until I got into it and started to appreciate what it is really about.

It has a perfect difficulty balance (played on medium) where you have just enough ammo and health to get through but still at times you are wondering how the hell you will defeat the 6 mutated zombie creatures coming at you! The graphics are amazing, one of the best I've seen on the box and has some really cool zero-g moments too. Worth a few play through to get achievements. A must buy in my book.
Awesome I've heard it's pretty scary stuff. Not scripted that you know when someones going to jump out at you. But scripted that you don't!

Well damn, they must have turned the settings right down on the console because I still think the half life 2 engine on the PC is one of the nicest looking game engines about... that doesnt kill computers (Crysis).

It has moments of pure genius and several times I've been blown away by how clever it is. It's worth a play through at least twice as you have the whole good/evil choices but to explore the whole map will take you around 50+hours. A must buy.
You played Fallout 1 and 2? If not you should. If you like fallout 3 story you'll love the origional! The origional has something 3 hasnt, and imo 3 loses something with the change of perspective and game machanics

Have a search on Play, You can get Fallout 1,2 and tactics (only for PC ) for £6.41! give it a go... for that price you cant go wrong!

P.S. If your computer can run Windows itll be able to run these, so no excuse for not buying

I was in Game on Saturday and after I got over the shock of how much acne a person's face can hold I asked the assitant about Fallout 1 & 2. He looked at me like I was Grinch. Sheesh.

Will be having a look on Play laters. Cheers Greek but do you think my system can cope?

It depends on if you are running 1 copy of it or 20,000 copies of it

Aye you should be A OK!

It is wierd that they havnt re released the first two games for people who are interested! Hmph.

If you arnt sure about the combat system (it is a little old school) just give it a chance.

You'll learn about the true Super mutants in the first game and the true Enclave in the 2nd one.
