My first F03 screenshot

... courtesy of the installer auto-detecting my rig's abilities.

This might not look that exciting to other people, but I have never had a top-of-the-line gaming rig before.  Glee!

My collectors edition ships tomorrow, so I should be good to go by Thursday. I've also managed to get my hands on the power armour figure, which should arrive the same day.

360 version so I can play it on the HDTV - I canned the PC order for now, I'll maybe pick it up later on if the toolset appears down the line.

Crazy amount of games lately - my premier edition of Red Alert 3 ships tomorrow as well. But Fallout 3 first.

Amazon cancelled my pre-order for Ce. Managed to find a Danish site with a few left and pre-ordered, it was sent today, and it doesn't officially come out until friday <3

i was almost scared for mine because my credit card was compromised... but it was approved before my card canceled so i am in the clear (funny because i was going to cancel it tomorrow and pick it up at the nearby EB, which supposedly had quite a few Collector's Editions).

also, my friend bought his today and will probably be telling me all about it tomorrow, haha.

I got the CE (for the 360), and will be playing shortly. Will skip the PC version unless, like Petrarch said, a toolset comes out.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I got the Collectors edition for the PC today. I will be enjoying this but first I'm taking a shower so I can get ready to enjoy this.

Then I have some work to do but then more Fallout.

So if anyone was really sad that I couldn't play because Amazon cancelled my Survivors edition and then delayed my order... don't worry!

I will be enjoying Fallout in 10 minutes so you can rest easy.
Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.


Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!

I went ahead and took the plunge as well. I was in a building shooting and stabbing people when I decided to take a break.  :P

Yes I was desperately clinging to my Bible and gun at the time.  ;)

Dude, they're definitely going to release a toolset.  The only reason they didn't release one with the game is that Oblivion got fucking re-rated by the ESRB because of a user-created mod or whatever the hell happened.  As soon as it's been on the shelves for a month or two and the rating is set in stone, there's no fucking way they won't release the mod tools.  Frankly, with the insane shit that the ESRB is pulling lately, delaying the mod kit release only makes sense.

I fucking hate you Than. So fucking much.

I picked up my copy this morning and it autodetected it at low quality. Currently counting down the hours at work until I can get home and playyyy. General feedback I'm seeing on messageboards is positive so far.

Owl, all things being equal, why get the 360 version over the PC version?
