According to gamesindustry.biz, Fallout 3 made number one on the October sales chart in the US. It also hogs the 8th spot with the Collector's Edition, and that's about as much as there is to say about that for now.
From the Perpetual Student, Perpetually Gaming blog comes an Excel thingy with which to plan your Fallout 3 character: the Fallout 3 Character Planner!<blockquote>While playing Fallout 3, and leveling up my character, I can’t help but let my mind wander to all the different possibilities of what I can do with my character. I’ve decided I want to start a new game with a guy geared toward being a Ninja. Since nearly every enemy in the game has a gun, this would make for some interesting gameplay. With all these ideas, I wanted some kind of chart where I could plot out my skills and perks and get an outline of my character. Such things exist for Diablo II and Too Human, but I could not find such a thing for Fallout 3. The obvious solution was to make my own.</blockquote>And he did! Russian Game-OST reviews the game's soundtrack, as one might expect, translated for our convenience.<blockquote>The game welcomes us with the very same music theme, which runs through the game as a burden. Weather it is to the good or not, the industrial ambient left us – now the wastelands are filled with the symphonic music with ethnic instruments’ panes here and there. Surprisingly, this doesn’t harm the game at all. The new Fallout was most likely to change in music aspect any way, ‘cause now the symbol of a true blockbuster and elite game – live symphonic music. Pure electronics is the destiny of low-budget projects.</blockquote>And in case TechSpot's graphics card rundown wasn't good enough for you, H Enthusiast has what is probably an even bigger one! Fear the tech lingo!<blockquote>Fallout 3 may have more controversy around it than any game in memory, but one thing at least is clear: it is a great performer. You don't need the most expensive video card around to play it with the highest settings at respectable resolution. In fact, a $205 GeForce GTX 260 (original) will get you very high settings at 1920x1200, and it's no slouch at 2560x1600 either. But if you have that giant display, and you need a high-end video card to push all those pixels, the fastest video card out there for Fallout 3 is the ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2. It is ultimately up to the consumer to decide if the extra $105 is worth it for another notch higher AA setting, but we could not be more pleased with how the HD 4870 X2 performed in Fallout 3.</blockquote>Great, I was afraid I'd have to graft a PX 97-82b to my 456x3470 and plink down ¥4.3 on a retrofitted Gorgo JUG 50 (S1-Bauer pre-97 model, natch). To round off, another couple of those Fallout 3-themed webcomics episodes. Hm.
