Mike wrote about it, Piets been playing it, and even I reserved a copy of the collectors edition and have been hammering away at it with every free moment I have (not so many as it turns out).

Yes, it was the long awaited Fallout 3.

You see I’ve played Fallout 1 and 2 for years, I have nice shiny copies of the games and an old laptop I use exclusively for playing the older games (it has nothing but Windows 95 games installed on it) and Fallout was one of my favorites (I never did play Fallout Tactics), wandering the wastes and doing as you please and damn the karma.

So far this version hasn’t failed to deliver. The change from aerial view to first person isn’t as jarring as I’d expect and the VATS system can be used nicely in conjunction with the less familiar “blast and run” FPS style.

I’m, best estimate, 75% complete on my first play through and there are a great many things I wished I had tried differently, but generally speaking I’ve no serious complaints with the game and I don’t regret the money I spent on it.
