Besides the fact that Fallout 3 still looks as amazing as ever, we were treated with a video that shows its unique gameplay mechanics. It looks as if you can switch between first and third person view, the latter being the default.
The physics and lighting look amazing as our character shoots off an enemy’s arm in a shower of blood and gore.
We saw the PIP BOY 3000, and its skills, stats and perks that are associated with it. Also the player had the bloody mess perk activated, which makes people explode in gobs of blood. He turned on the radio in the PipBoy to listen while walking.
The game will feature over 100 hours of gameplay and the ability to go and explore almost every building you cross. The VAT system is a mechanic where you are allowed to pause the game and choose which body part you want to focus on when shooting. You can choose to take that route or have straight up live combat, or a mix of both.
Something exclusive to the Xbox 360 and PC versions of the game will be a substantial amount of downloadable content.
Stay tuned for more info on Fallout 3 during E3 week.
