generally things that are written on old fashioned paper and sent by snail mail are taken more seriously and are more likely to get a reply!

Seems like Fallout 3 uses the same engine as Oblivion so I will be able to run it fine :D
Now, (regrettably :() I've never played 1 & 2 and don't really have time to catch up now. Is there a good place that summarises both up in detail so I can play 3 without being a complete n00b? I'll play 1 & 2 at a later stage when I graduate and have more free time. |

i got fallout1 and 2 plus tactics together in a box for like $20 or something, you should be able to find it at eb games or kmart or something like that
i didnt get very far, the interface was getting on my nerves, but it was good when i could play it
basically there is a nuclear holocaust and you are living in a 50's style bomb shelter called the vault, and you get out and explore the land while looking for a water tank chip or something to save your vault |

I can get it easily, the problem is I don't have time to play them.
Apparently F3 is completely separate so there's no need to play them first. I'll play them later on when I retire :p |

fallout 3 banned in australia :rolleyes:
stupid south australian attorney general. what an ignorant turd. |
popped into ebgames today, fallout 3 is coming out albeit edited, .6 seconds of footage removed (apparently the point where a needle pierces the skin has been removed) and the name of a weapon has been changed as it is referencing a drug.
All in all, as far as i've been told, it's coming out. |

yeah, they changed all the stuff re drug use. doesn't matter to me though, i pre-ordered the unedited version from amazon :) |

to be honest, that isn't enough to get me worried, i'll settle for the aus deluxe edition as I love the fact we are considered prudes by some round the world.
guys in suits, 55+, never played a game in their lives decide the classification of games.
hilarious. |

it depends. i ordered my copy well before i heard what changes were gonna get made. back then there was talk about gameplay changes to the way drugs worked, and this might still be the case. its the principle for me too. |

As if you would buy here and pay $100 for it when you can get it from playasia.com for like half price. Awesome store, highly recommended. |
