Got my pre-order in a while back. It'll be a bit jarring to play, since the past couple months have all been deeply mired in the classics of the three isometric Fallout games.

What about the Diablo-Clone that came out on the console, Stahl?

Is he talking about that one or the excellent squad based tactical shooter? ;)

Not that that one was a great Fallout game, but it was a decent game outside of the Fallout canon :)

I meant Fallout Tactics, not the Brotherhood of Steel console game. BoS was utter crap. Tactics was halfway alright as a Fallout game (and its events are at least partially canon, referenced in the story arcs of New Vegas and the upcoming Lonesome Road DLC), but was actually quite good as a squad tactical game. I've mainly been playing 1, 2, and Tactics so I can show my roommate and friend (both of the barely able to legally drink age) the greatness that laid the foundation for 3 and New Vegas.

The Midwest Brotherhood of Steel got a minor reference in Fallout 3 as well.

The BoS has gotten a major ****kicking.   :'(  The Capital Wasteland maybe all that's left, and it doesn't even follow the proper code any longer.

There WAS no Console Fallout game!
Just as there was no Indiana Jones 4!

OK, i will allow the tactics game, because it wasn't ALL bad . .

No, it wasn't all bad. I'm with you on the upper remarks, though.

As it is, a lot of the Deus Ex screenshots are very good as player-aids to set the mood of the scene.

That's one of the reasons I actually wanted to get this one; it's overall theme and the level of augmentation tech vs. the first two games (which take place a few decades later in the setting timeline) are very good for Shadowrun.

I love playing Borderlands and I am now addicted to Valkyria Chronicles.  I do not even like rpg video games but I enjoy playing it and the squad combat is great.

The first one was fantastic. That was maybe 10 years ago. THis one looks just as good.
