Yahoo! Fall Games Guide

Yahoo! has put up a guide containing short looks at many of the games games currently slated for a fall release, such as Fable II and Fallout 3.

Platforms: PC, Xbox 360, PS3
Genre: RPG
Release Date: October 28

Explore the apocalypse in Bethesda’s long-awaited Fallout 3. The sequel to two of the most cherished role-playing games ever, the game infuses the great non-linear gameplay of role-playing epic Oblivion with dark, gut-busting humor, deep character customization, and a new combat system so smart it makes nuclear fission look dumb.
Why It’s Hot:

It’s Fallout plus Oblivion — two great tastes that taste great together. Action can be handled in real-time or through the turn-based VATS system, letting both wannabe Rambos and strategy buffs enjoy it equally. The writing is brilliant, the post-apocalyptic world is riveting, and the depth is unparalleled. Need we go on?
Why It’s Not:

Good question. We’ll get back to you on that when the radiation wears off in a few months.
