I played this game for the first time in 2002 and it blew me away. so much bigger than the first one it was amazing, and the inclusion of over 50 new weapons HAHA! I know that same rag on the combat for being turn based and having no skill. but these guys just don’t understand the beauty of this amazingly intelligent combat system that is so deep when it is understood and used right. I saw a review busting the games balls for not allowing you to have a social character and forcing you to have a high strength character at the start... um your playing it wrong than I went through the game once as a master social character who didn’t kill anyone at all and convinced the final boss to kill himself! Good times... since 2002 I have clocked the first fallout at least 10 times in totally different ways. And I have played this one through at least 8 times (Give me a break its at least 4X as big!!). If you haven’t played this game buy it and play it through again and again, you will not be disappointed!!!!
