SUMMARY

Those grapics are horrible. They really need to make revolutionary steps in video games because it doesn't look all that much better than when I played rainbow six back in high school.

The robots dynamics are all screwy when he walks too. He takes a step and then scoots left or right because he can't walk over something on the map. You can see it on the bridge.
 
Here you can watch the better quality version of the game. I really don't play games but I have been following the Fallout series since it came out in the 1997 so I had to give it a try for the good time sake.

I used to be editor in chief of monthly computer games magazine back in nineties. Horrible is exagerration. But I didn't like it either, I have seen better animation years ago.

They don't have to make any revolutionary steps, it will be enough to use correct technology available :smile:
 
Youtube doesn't really do HD gaming any justice. I think I'd prefer Far Cry 2 for more realism.
 
To be honest I think fallout 3 is an insult to the fallout series, but then again only weird people agree with me.
 
i remember hearing the game producers comment that this game was in the making for 4 years, but I don't remember where the video is on youtube.
