Fallout 3

Meh, Tactics is a good game. It was disappointing if you are looking for the same things you can get from the first, but it was a good tactical squad game overall.
KvP:
Seriously though, if you like tactical combat games, like Jagged Alliance and the like, you could do worse, provided you keep turn-based combat on.
KvP:
"Real Time Settler" mod. Basically this allows you to build and run a small town, and govern it, protect it from raiders, etc. It looks pretty impressive given how far afield it is from normal F3 gameplay. There do seem to be some insurmountable issues with the engine though (for example, navmeshes can't be altered so villagers will attempt to walk through walls because they don't know there are walls)
KvP:
Not long now.

So I'm playing this FO3 PC mod called Wanderer's Edition and despite my skepticism at its ambition it actually works surprisingly well and fundamentally changes the way you play Fallout 3 (for the better in my estimation, but it's definitely a matter of taste). Pistols become useful, shotgun shells become precious resources, most of the skills become more useful and you can't specialize in more than a few, you're no longer invincible (you have to run and use tactics with most of the battles, and the dart gun becomes 1000x more useful), healing becomes tougher (there's an optional "triage" mod that requires you to have surgical tubing in order to apply stims to limbs), sprint and slo-mo add some tactical elements, and there's even a bit of variety added in PC backgrounds (I'm playing as a ghoul, which means feral ghouls are neutral to me and environmental radiation slowly heals me and reduces my rad count drastically, but there are other backgrounds that change up where you start, your starting equipment, bonus perks and modifiers to your skills, etc.) that really add something to the game up until the point at which you start the main questline and all of a sudden you're from Vault 101 (F3 being what it is, however, you can delay that for a long, long time)
It's actually one of the more successful full-game conversions I've played. There's a lot but most of it is actually optional. Most of you pricks probably play on consoles but there have to be a few of you who are sporting the PC plumage (Steve?)
