lol @ playing a FPS for the storyline
but crysis was pretty much an average FPS set in a vietnam-esque locale ... the only things setting it apart are the ridiculously gorgeous environments, and your power suit. it didn't really bring anything new to the table but i found it very entertaining.
anyway about fallout, yeah, they probably could have done better on the textures and shit, but it was still very entertaining. i hear you jbrist, i typically upgrade the hell out of my rig too (though i'm about a year behind because i've been broke ;-
. but even still a fun game is a fun game regardless of the gfx. Good gfx are just gravy.
Like, okay, FarCry 2. Have you played that? It's fuckin beautiful. When you're out in the wilderness you can't help but just look around sometimes. But the gameplay is HORRID. It's just the same mission over and over and over. So I didn't even beat it. Couldn't stand it.
Even still, you thought it was too slow, ... okay, I guess. I mean, it's way faster paced than any other RPG out there pretty much, lol, but ok, that's your opinion
