Zombies, Pittsburgh in ruins, shotguns, ball bats, bricks, over use of the word "fuck", and you even get a pickup truck with Hank Williams, "Alone and Forsaken" playing on the radio for awhile.

It's like a redneck gamers wet dream.

Totally love it.

Is that out on PC? if so its definitely one on my to-download hotlist.

From what I can tell, its something like what the lovechild of a FPS, one of the resident evil series, and fallout ?

I just love those post-apocalyptic survival type games (I must be one of the all time biggest fallout series fans, those are some of THE best games ever made IMO, partly for the gameplay and a great deal for the sick sense of humor in the game feedback messages and character screens etc.). Not seen that many FPS in the genre though.

Other than the zombies, all of this can be found in Pittsburgh now.

Lestat, PS3 only right now that I know of, since Naughtydog is owned by Sony. Keep checking, I'm sure they'll have an emulator somewhere popping up.

So true, even the zombies are debatable.

*so much hi five*

Are you aware of the "Mutants Rising" fan-made total conversion?
It is probably the closest thing to a proper Fallout 3 on the way. It is being made on the FO2 engine.

I'm not
I'm one of the "sour grumps" who were heartbroken to see what Fallout 3 turned out to be. I've had the hardest time explaining this to my aspie friend, cus he keeps translating into all sorts of things it doesn't mean - "You don't like nice graphics?" "You don't like shooting?" etc

Fallout was, and is, supposed to be a good, old, classic role playing game. You're a step away from actually rolling dice over your mouse-pad.
Fallout 3 was a "shooter" with elements of role-play added - for some flavor. This was a huge dissapointment to old fallout fans, who have since had a very difficult time explaining just this "nooo, I am NOT against 1st person shooters. Nooooo, I'm not against cool graphics... "
It was just a huge departure from what we were promised.

Also have in mind
Fallout 1 and 2 were made by a completely different developers team - a small, struggling - eventually bankerupted team.
Fallout 3 and 4 are made by super-giant and lord-of-dumbing-down-good-titles Bethesda

Compare Morrowind - Oblivion - Skyrim, in terms of "nerdyness". They have streamlined their games untill they are just a "feast to the eye" and little else.
Fallout was supposed to almost be the opposite, grainy graphics that inspire use of ones own imagination, ripe with intellectual goodies and lots of dark humor.
Not to rip even more on FO3, but the attempts at humor, clever dialogue, etc, fell embarassingly short, and felt almost like a 12 year old trying to sound deep and adult

So... for that crowd, "Mutants Rising" is our last hope

What can I say, I'm a sucker for shooters and nice graphics. 

But I understand your point, they were totally different games.
