never played 3...would rather have TES5 (not the online BS)
That's because you know nothing about x85 .net Windows containers with remote capability.

I don't expect you to know what all that this is if you've never worked with it.

You need to hunker down and get 3. If you like TES, I don't think there is a possible way that you don't like Fallout 3. Not quite as deep as Skyrim when looking at crafting and such but the landscape and locations have the same amount of story and intrigue. It is TES with guns, sort of. It could be the hold over until TES5, which I am also patiently awaiting.
 
Is it going to be .net compatible with Windows and x85 containers?
Maybe ... ?

More seriously now ... as long as they don't use the same game engine as Rockstar used for GTA V on the PC, I'll buy it. I never buy PC games at release, not merely because of price, but because they are so damn buggy. But since I had this week off, I bought GTA V for $60, and found out first hand how buggy it is. After several back'n forths in a support ticket, giving them far more debugging info than they ever expected, Rockstar admitted it's 2 known bugs they are still working on.

Kinda sad, because GTA V does look very good in steroscopic 3D, and is very fun to play. But if you cannot even get half-way through a mission because it keeps crashing, and you cannot save mid-mission per the game's design, the mission gets very old on the 12th attempt.

Definitely the mods, the endless mods. Part of the reason I still PC game, instead of console. Thank God for Steam, before which it was impossible to maintain games on Windows.

Steam regularly knocks 75% off the Bethesda titles every 6 or so months. So it's a good idea to put on one's Steam wishlist so one is notified. I mean, even the GOTY versions can be as low as $5 if you wait for a sale.

BTW, I actually think I have an extra copy (that I can gift) of each Fallout 3 (GOTY) and New Vegas (non-GOTY?), in my Steam account, if anyone is interested. Just let me know.

Just FYI, Steam is having a weekend sale on the Fallout 3 titles.
The base games are -50% off at $4.99 and the GotY/Ultimate editions (Base+all add-ons/Expansions) are -40% for $11.99.
