Anybody else playing/played Fallout 3? I find it to be a terrible waste of time, takes hours to make very little progress, and I feel like I am constantly wasting my free time treading across the desert, making it halfway to my desired location before being ambushed and killed by mutants and having to load from my last save point. Frustrating and time consuming, but it is a hard game to put down. Amazing visuals and occasionally some pretty unique game play make it worth sticking with it despite it being the time waster it is.
The "Traquility Lane" portion of the game was brilliant! Psychotic and rather disturbing in many ways (this is the kind of thing you don't want kooks like Jack Thompson or Hilary Clinton to see), but also incredibly amusing, and sometimes outright hilarious. Very reminiscent of the old Twilight Zone episodes, they captured a really cool erieeness with the whole black and white thing. Seriously, this single quest is a great concept for a whole game in itself. I'd pay good money for an extended experience of Tranquility Lane. Imagine spending hours doing tasks for Betty, or figuring out ways to defy her. I'd buy it.
