I can't play Mag due to my lack of a PS2 but I completely agree with what you're said about COD. I'm not going to repeat it because it's all right there but I just don't like COD. It's fun but Battlefield is much better.
All of you saying you loved Fallout 3 and so will love Fallout are horribly wrong. I tried the same thing it's completely different and no where near as good. In my opinion at least.
This game is contending Fallout 3 for my favorite game ever. With the crap ton of replay value I KNOW this game will have it's probable that it will, as opposed to Fallout 3 where it's possible (and encouraged after between the wait until the level cap raise and after the Broken Steel story) in one playthrough.
The classes aren't really that great. The article says that they were "inspired" by TF2 but the just ripped them off. The Assault guy just has a future version of the Heavy's gun. The Robotic does the EXACT same thing as the Engineer and the Medic even has a knife that appears to have the same function as the Medic unlockable bonesaw (I forget what it's called)
@Eureka: On second though,(in the of chance you come back to read this which you probably won't) your complaint about no liking the character art falls flat. You don't have to see your character so I guess you could complain about the NPCs but that doesn't make much sense either.
This game looks awesome. The only thing is that the "millions of guns" claim is going to fall painfully flat. I'm sure a lot of them will good but no doubt the majority will me mediocre or just plain shit.
I don't agree with Gears being a head of Fallout 3. Horde mode is fun but after the 15th time being trampled on wave 49 just doesn't keep me occupied. Also because the online matchmaking take forever to load. I would have put TF2 on the list in it's place.
Conversly Fallout 3 has occupied over 100 hours of play plus 3 other characters before I finally got bored last week. Even then every time I pop the disc back in I add another 3 hours.
P.S. I play Rock Band only when I have friends over. And after that I always have to play my real guitar for at least an hour to keep myself sane.
I disagree with the part about the cartoon graphic being a down point. The graphic make it even funnier. Imagine the Mr. Incredible and Buzz Light year ripping each other apart. Funny right. My point exactly.
