, and yeah it's quite a lot of lore one have to know about, I would recommend this site as a place to start:http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_Wiki search for the called "Fallout Bibles" in particular.

i actually have that site bookmarked :P

anyway, I'm not sure if I said anything on here, but like 2 weeks ago or so my xbox got the red ring of death, so i had to send it in. unwilling to give up modern warfare 2, the next day i got it on the PS3. for some reason it seems easier; on the xbox, i had a negative kill/death ratio. on the PS3 I average at about 1.10, and half the time I get like 2:1, and then the next game with same people I get like 1:2 or something similar. its very interesting really. I think ti has something to do with how I use my guns. if I dominate a whole day using the same gun, almost every time the next day I suck with it. this has happened with just about everything but the M4A1 and the SCAR-Heavy. I'm not entirely sure why.

hmm......what else? tried installing rise and fall: civilizatiosn at war. had to do a system restore on my vista laptop, though it went to right before it was installed so its all good.....ill try installing on my grandmas computer...

I'm setting a goal for myself to finally beat Bioshock (got it last.....year at some point before fall. got to Arcadia i think and then I just stopped playing for some reason.) before the years end, hope i can meet it. I've always been kinda anxious to finish it, just never found the time or the will to play it over call of duty.

oh! waiting for Halo:Reach. looks pretty cool, though I'm still waiting on those damn iron-sights for every gun so I can aim thing. I hate spraying when with proper aiming I'd be fine.

aparently you can have like 50 A.I and 20 vehicles on screen at once, far more than any previous halo. should make for epic battles.

Returned Uncharted 2, Bioshock 2, and a couple other games for 100 dollars credit and Saints Row 2. Yahtzee was right; spraying human feces from the back of a septic truck IS good fun!

D'oh!

Oh and Fallout 1 & 2 is in the "Fallout Collection" re-release thingy,
I don't think it's available for free on teh internet but I think it's available on Steam if you can put up with their evil ways that is.

i think i saw it at Best Buy when I bought FO3 actually, but I dont wanna pay for those, especially considering i probably will play once, and not touch them again, plus i robly wont even finish them or like the gameplay. just thought that id like to get the story from the games themselves; i find that what a wiki says is typically far less in-depth or cool than hearing it from a game.

I'm currently playing browser-based 4X game Neptune's Prinde, and contemplating creating a thread here to set up a game or two. I figure I should wait until I finish my first game though. Well worth a look, I think, and hardly a time sink if you don't want it to be.

Personally I am quite fond of the gameplay, takes a bit of time to get used to the turnbased combat and it's lack of userfriendliness so it's quite understandable if you would not like the gameplay. I agree that getting the story from the games themselves is a lot more epic/interesting than reading it from a wiki.

note: sorry to hear about your xbox360 problems.
