I’m not surprised by this. I bought Fallout 3 for my PS3 only because my PC is old and slow and I’d have to do a major expensive upgrade (or new PC) to play it. Many PC gamers have been around for a while and if they are like me, played, loved, and cherished the original Fallout and Fallout 2 on their PCs….if you played the predecessors how could you NOT get Fallout 3?
I’m only a few hours into Fallout 3 and I love it so much I’ve stopped playing Bioshock and that’s a freakin’ awesome game too. Now if my kids would only go to bed earlier so I could play for more than 15 minutes a night…that would be great.
