Scott,While I personally don't share your opinion on Fallout 3, I definitely respected your well thought out and reasoned piece. I have to say this is one of the better reviews I've read in a while (I don't normally comment on reviews).What I do find sad is that the game journalism is still so full of 'fanboy' culture that you (and I would imagine, many others) felt compelled to self censure. Giving yourself and anxiety attack.Differing opinions should celebrated and discussed, just like in other mediums.I noticed the same thing this year around MGS4. I played it. All of it. And as I read all of these reviews, and how it deserved to be the top of everyone's gamer lists, I could only wonder: Did we play the same game?Brian
