It's not really a facelift. It's just that the 360 version now looks almost as good as the other versions.

Awesome! I was never that fussed about the graphics tbh, I still love the game, and I'd rather have a higher and more stable framerate than slightly better textures, but still it's a nice update to have, and I can't wait to see it.

i'll get excited about a fallout 3 patch that fixes VATS targeting percentages (broken since 1.1) as well as any perks related to targeting percentages.

the new patch's biggest benefit is to allow me to buy the next DLC... strange priorities beth + M$ have there...

i guess i'm happy for you x360 people, tho. your VATS might be broken, but you also have no real, scientific way to prove that it's broken, so game on, i guess.

Broken? Can you elaborate?

the problems, stated clearly.

the methodology used for testing VATS hit percentages. also why VATS may or may not be broken on consoles as well - there's no console to test with, so no one can tell.

the results.

basically that entire thread and about fifteen others there highlight the problems these "patches" continue to introduce (and then not fix).

what the modding community has resorted to in regards to fixing these problems.

I haven't seen it played on anything but a 360, but I do like this idea. trouble is, should I fork out lots of the ridiculous Microsoft points for this DLC? I didn't by Operation: Anchorage but everybody says I should (or says that it's a pile of shit and that I should aviod it, but thats the games industry for you)

Should I?

Looks good! This means my 360 version will look almost as awesome as the PC version, minus the slight stuttering I get from time to time. Hooray!

You're confused surely?

The xBox version has the worst out the lot.

you're probably right. that was a knee-jerk dick-move on my part.

i should state, for clarity, that i'm just bitter about having had to go through the silliness of creating a GFWL account to get at the (pretty disappointing) anchorage DLC content.

i'm fine with being a backseat customer in theory, i think i just dislike it when my nose gets rubbed into it a few times too often, if that makes sense?

I thought that too, apparently the PS3 version actually looks better in some ways.

If that costs money? Hell no. I see slightly more glisteny-ness. I really don't care that much. Might have something to do witht he fact I still play fallout 1 and the graphics mean jack to me. Sure, good graphics are nice, but so long as everything is clearly defined (graphically) then it's fine by me. By that I mean you can tell one thing from another. Clean lines and all.
