Mass Effect

[EverBlue]

I have both worries and excitement for Fallout 3.
On one hand, Oblivion with guns... (Okay, not EXACTLY.. But pretty darn close) The world is supposedly smaller then Oblivion's, and one of the things that made the Fallout series so great, was the things you could do. I remember in Fallout2, seducing a drug lord's daughter, sleeping with her, robbing her blind.. Going to the hallway to leave and running into her mother.. Who invited me into bed. I slept with her, robbed her. Left the room, and proceeded to kill the druglord and his guards.
But the fact that Ron Perlman is once again voice acting, is a HUGE plus. One of the few reasons I actually bothered with C&C3 was that figurehead Joe Kucan returned as Kane. C&C is not C&C without Kane. Just like Fallout isn't Fallout with Ron to voice that one line that manages to send shivers down my spine each time I hear it.. "War... War never changes."
But god dammit if it isn't being ported to console. Which means 2 things.
It's going to be dumbed down, and linear. (Like Mass Effect!!)
