This is what it's about,

Vault 101 - Jewel of the Wastes. For 200 years, Vault 101 has faithfully served the surviving residents of Washington DC and its environs, now known as the Capital Wasteland. Though the global atomic war of 2077 left the US all but destroyed, the residents of Vault 101 enjoy a life free from the constant stress of the outside world. Giant Insects, Raiders, Slavers, and yes, even Super Mutants are all no match for superior Vault-Tec engineering. Yet one fateful morning, you awake to find that your father has defied the Overseer and left the comfort and security afforded by Vault 101 for reasons unknown. Leaving the only home you've ever known, you emerge from the Vault into the harsh Wasteland sun to search for your father, and the truth.

It looks good from the preview clip on play.com.

It all depends on what you like in a game. I think its a game your either going to love or hate if i am honest. I didn't get into it straight away i must admit, but when i adjusted to the story line and the setting i found it pretty awsome. I am still playing it now, i think i have put in about 50 hours and i am at level 15 (skill rating). I have strayed away from the main story to do my own thing, taking my time and enjoying the experience. Its all about exploring and making as much currency as i can. I scrounge and steal my way through the wasteland killing anything that gets in my way. There are plenty of suprises if you do the side missions and both myself and my mate have had different results depending on how we 'played it'.
There isnt much more i can say about it mate. If in doubt try and get it secondhand or do a trade in. That way if you find its crap you haven't lost out so much :y:

If you get it mate stick with the first 20 mins or so :y:. Its a training kind of thing but once you got it sorted your free to go :y:. I am not going to spoil it for you mate but in my opinion it was one of the best 'tutorials' i have seen in a game. If you like first person adventure games this will be right up your street, just takes a bit of getting used to. Its by the makers of Oblivion if your familiar with it ?

I'm completely addicted!

It's different to how I expected it to be, but it's an excellent game...

Same here. I had a bit of difficulty getting used to the 1950's theme but set so far in the future. It was a struggle at first but once my mind had adjusted to the idea i was hooked. I have seen some pretty crazy things and done some crazy stuff but everyones experience is different, thats the great thing about it. My mate plays it and he has had a totally different game experience to me :D I wont post any spoilers but there is some interesting stuff out there to see and do.

Yeah, when I first started playing I couldn't see what all the hype was about, but as soon as you get out "there" and you get used to the gameplay, it's seriously addictive. Same here me and my dad are both playing!
