So i got the game today (like i bet anyone cares)... anyhoo

I got the game today (well technically yesterday) and i've totaled up about 5 hours of game play.

And what did i exactly get done in that five hours?

1. Left The Vault
2. Some Side Quests (like 2 of them)
and
3. Completed the "The Power of the Atom" Quest.

I say that, this game is going to take some time to beat. YES!!

I had to send the game back to Gamefly immediately after I beat the main quest because it was consuming all of my time. The main quest actually doesn't take too long, but there is soooo much more. In essence, the game is pure digital crackrock.

I will probably buy it at some point b/c I want to do the side quests. There's just so many other games out right now, I had to put down the pipe.

Here's my advice: pick locks. Put lots of points into Pick Locks. That's the easiest damn experience in the game.

This is true.
I appreciate the social commentary as much as the gameplay

SPOILERS. DON'T LOOK IF YOU CARE.


Did choose to blow up megaton or defuse the bomb?

Blowing it up is just so much more fun.

Getting it for Christmas.:)
A friend of mine didn't like it because he kept running out of ammo.
I've heard it's good, but just how good is it?

Welcome. The way i see it...

You have just enough time to beat fallout by the time the DLC comes out next year.

Congrats.

I am currently on Fallout hiatus. Friggin L4D is like crack.

Its very good. Very gritty, and vats is awesome. Some really epic quests, and then a very few filler...garbage quests. All in all though, its an awesome game. Oh, and your friend runs out of ammo because he sucks. Its called scavenge, hoarde, and pick your battles. You know, survival. He should try it.

Also, the sledgehammer is great for saving ammo. WHACK! KABOOM!

Lol. Or, if you travel to (its either SW or NE. I forget) the corner of the map, their is a trailer park. In that trailer park you find the blueprint for the deathclaw weapon thing. Just...good luck getting the "death claw hand" item.

by the looks of it, i'm going to do more playthroughs of the game.

The first playthrough, i'm trying to do everything right. (So i Defused it)

Well besides the whole town of megaton getting mad at me cause i accidentally went into the armory... I was walking right next to it and accidentally hit a, and went inside. came out, everyone was shooting at me.

So of course, i had to go walk around the wastelands for like 20 mins just so they can cool their asses down.

came back in and finished that main quest right there.

Yeah i've ran out of ammo quite enough, but all i have to do is walk around and find some raiders. They carry enough. Like a Sniper Rifle. That made me HAPPY.

I spent ten hours my first day playing it non-stop, barely scratched the main quest.

Then, I did it. It was awesome.

Lol. Ammo is pretty easy later in the game. Once you get laser/plasma type guns, you find ammo for that everywhere. The enclave has it, robots have it. So its pretty abundant.

Makes me wish i spec'd energy weaps...

It came with all the labels you need.

I got an empty box with all the instructions on how to pack it and a self stick label

remember to remove your hard drive first.

When I got it back it played fine and they gave me one of those newer quieter drives(mine was a launch unit)

Good Luck.

(Now you make me want to go spend money, I've been wanting fallout but have so far resisted the urge) :D

the guy said i have to ship it with an unmarked box (of my own). Which wasn't a problem, because i have plenty of those laying around.

And i'm sorry, maybe you can enjoy the game more than me at the moment. lol
