I had this preordered for PC for a while.  I might hold out on playing it for a week so mods can fix some problems the game suffered due to the console versions.

Oblivion with guns? I'm so there Borys, you have me hyped!

Seriously, what I've seen so far doesn't make me think it's Oblivion with guns. It will however be an awesome RPG.

I hope so. After re-playing 1&2, I'm trying to keep my expectations low, so that I won't be disappointed.

Also, 360 version for me. Sorry Borys, I'd go pc, but I'm just too uncoordinated with kb/mouse to play pc games that require any kind of fast action.

Fallout 3 doesn't require fast mouse action.  You can actually pause the action and almost play it in a turn based way if you wanted to.

Jesus H. Christ people you don't have to excuse me because you're buying games on consoles.

I am cool with consoles. I own 2 and 1 handheld.

Really?! Hmmm...I've been steering clear of most info, so this is great news for me. I just assumed it was going to be more action oriented. I'll have to do some reading, it seems. I've always been envious of pc mods.

Unless they changed it, that was how they were planning it.  It was called VATS or something like that.  You can pause the action and simply click on any part of the enemies body to shoot them at that part.  You can either play it like a shooter or slow it down to be more RPG like.

Yeah, I guess I'm going to have to preorder it afterall.

Also, PC version for me. I didn't get a new PC so I could get mod-less console ports.

Some games you just got to take the risk and dive in. I think this will be one of those games.

I loved Oblivion, and the soundtrack/art style are right up my alley (much like Bioshock), so I'm all about some Fallout 3.  Imma get the Collector's Edition. 

Is that pre-order bonus just for the PC version?  I couldn't find it anywhere on the Gamestop site.
