Is PS3 version the same bullshit like old Bethesda's work?

Bullshit. I havent had a single problem with civ5, metro 2033, stalker, mafia, just cause, dead rising or any other pc game I played in the past 2 months. Obsidian are the most incompetent devs around.
I have to echo joystiq, it is baffling this game shipped in its current state. At this point I am half expecting it to format my C drive.

If it hasnt been fixed in all these years i doubt Obsidian is going to show up and fix stuff thats been plaguing every Bethesda release since Morrowind. The only way these bugs are going away is to use an engine that can actually handle huge open worlds.reddwarf42 said:

I'd like to know too. The PS3 version of FO3 was great after being patched for crashing and improved texture filtering but it was garbage at launch...hopefully not the case here although I'm probably getting the PC version.

It still shouldn't crash. Chug maybe but not crash.

The save issue is on the PC right? Maybe its a cloud issue?Animator said:

stupei said:If you pick explosives as one of your three starters, the game starts you out with some dynamite and the gangs in the local area are very prone to using it too, so you'll be able to loot plenty off their bodies.
So far I'm actually explosives-speech-lockpicking, with Four Eyes and Good Natured and having a blast.
Punished in what way? I mean, aside from repair, I'd say those characteristics were largely under-valued in FO3.
Putting points in Big guns early in F3 was not wise because big guns did not show up until the latter half of the game. Overall, certain weapons, like scoped and sniper rifles did not benefit as much as they did from gun skill points. The better route to go in F3 was definitely through science, speech, repair, and non gun skills.

Yep, and no one else has had issues with any of those games.:lol
Multiple people have said they have had smooth gaming experiences with the PC release. Different hardware configs cause issues, it's a fact. It's part of PC gaming. If you can't admit that you have some serious denial issues.
I love PC gaming, always have and will. But I'm not blind to the fact that shit gets messed up with different hardware.
Just because YOU personally haven't had issues doesn't mean that others haven't. Just like you might be having trouble with New Vegas when others have no issues at all.
Loved Fallout 3, decided to go ahead and just order Vegas on Amazon for release date delivery... long story short, I still don't have it yet the UPS tracking shows that the address is "incorrect"... I've had at least 10+ things ordered on Amazon and delivered to my apartment by UPS... it's probably just some dumbass UPS driver that's too lazy to do his damn job and look around the side of my apartment complex. Grr.

Have fun everyone, I'm personally going to wait for the GOTY edition with all the DLC, hopefully there will be some good mods by then too .

Given the same engine an repurposing of content, I imagine you'll see alot of popular mods rolling in within a month or so, like Fellout, for example. Its more the static mods (buildings and such) that will take time. Hell, I bet the texture replacer one (forget the name) could already be used or nearly used in it.

Already a couple mods up. FOOK - New Vegas and an early version of FO3Edit for NV. Other than that there is a nude mod up already but thats expected :lol

The metro was always the most dreadful thing for me in FO3, knowing that one simple doesn't exist in NV whatsoever is music to my ears!
If you're thinking of getting the PC version, I'd stay away, it runs like shit unless you can brute force it. I'm getting low teens framerate in the starting area during firefights with one enemy, on any graphical settings. Framerate doesn't change between ultra>low, kinda mind boggling. I haven't seen a game run this bad in a long long time. GTA 4 runs better which is hilarious to me.

Wild Wasteland has some wacky items and encounters that a non-WW game doesnt. The flip side is that a non-WW has some more realistic items and whatnot that a WW game doesnt.Branson said:

Has this already been posted? From the Rock Paper Shotgun review:
Got the 360 version and took a 2 hour lunch to crack into it. Pretty great so far. No major bugs to speak of, just a very similar experience to FO3. I realized before I left the first house that Hardcore mode isn't for me. I would have taken the kitchen sink if the game let me :lol.
I am concerned with people not getting the game based on reviews. I will say this just based on the couple hours I spent with it: If you liked FO3, and would like more of that with a completely different map/NPC's, get this game.

this is kind of getting me a little worried. I have the same setup except a 2.6 quad core.

Honestly, a better question is was the PS3 version of Fallout 3 crappier than the 360 version? The tech is basically the same from all accounts

If you have a nvidia card and are having problems what drivers are you using? There was a driver release yesterday that makes mention of New Vegas in its readme (its in reference to 3D stuff but still).
edit:
Also.. when i did my GOTY run i ended up using MaximizedWindow to run the game. Basically Fallout 3 ran like ass in Fullscreen mode and i had the odd CTD now and then. This program runs the game in windowed mode but expands it to make it appear as in Fullscreen. After i did that not only did i get rid of my CTDs but the game ran better and that stuttering bug disappeared. i also found true love and won the lottery with it installed. i would try it out myself but i dont have the game yet

So weird. It runs smoothly on High with Vsync on even on my laptop with a core 2 duo and ATI 4670. I haven't gotten to try it on my desktop yet though.

Since when are mostly 8s and a few 9s not so great?

Everyone that has been running the game fine has had ATI from what i can tell so its likely something that can be addressed in a driver update or patch.piratepwnsninja said:

I'm learning from F3 and am waiting for the first patch to hit before I start playing.
Too much broken shit at the beginning.

Does anyone think that maybe it'd be a good idea to have a separate board like the matchmaking board where people can go to JUST talk about graphics and hardware issues for PC on new releases?
I don't mind if people discuss it but it does the guys looking for Hardware and performance talk no favors to have to filter through game discussion, nor does it benefit people looking for game discussion to have to read and skip over pc performance posts. Just an idea.
Hard Mode, Hardcore on, No reticule is the way to go.
I played stalker with no reticule too, I think it's an immersion breaker in a game that focuses so much on the world they've created.
Plus it makes every encounter that much more frenetic if you don't have time to get iron sights up. :lol
For some reason hardcore makes this feel a lot more like stalker than F3 did. I love it.

There are updates to Direct X that dont change the easily identifiable version number. Usually they have a month in the name of the redistributable.Sebulon3k said:
