Well to say the least I am very let down the by Manual. This was the first thing I noticed when I opened the box. Both Fallout and Fallout 2 were spiral bound and had an excellent introduction and a great overal style. The Tactics manual is your standard booklet and is in no way shape or form similare to the one found in Fallout 1/2. This may seem insignificant but I was looking forward to reading a well-put together history of the Brotherhood and how conditions got to the way they are. Well just my 2 cents anyway but I think most everyone will feel the same way.
 
Yeah, well I bet you can SEE the items, eh? I can't. That's NOTHING, your problem.

Um I don't know if you've realized this or not but FO:T is NOT Fallout Three. Trust me if you go into a game expecting it to be something it isn't you are probably going to be disapointed so don't expect it to have the same gamestyle or manual as Fallout 1/2. And as for the story... why don't you install the game and watch the start-up movie and it will explain everything...this is a game not a novel (personally I thought it was kinda obvious)
 
The movie does do a good job of explaining the backstory. I'm somewhat unhappy with the manual too, but not so much because of the contents of it, as the low grade paper.

No shit. Everyone drop this fucking "it isn't Fallout 3" bullshit already.

If it's going to use the Fallout name, then it had better damn well stick to the Fallout Universe, right? Retro, post-apocalyptic, taken from the nuke scare era.

Amazing concept, huh?

Doesn't explain the guitar or many other things. It would be like going to watch a re-edit of Star Wars and having Darth Vader say "Luke...I am your mother....intense hormone treatments have given me this thick, luxurious voice...show me your Schwartz...."

Fits in like a raw crab claw, shell and all, amidst a nice beef curry.

In which, they botched up the origins of the BoS.

Congrats.
