I split it off from FO3 thread Tani. I thought we should keep the two separate.

You can scream out loud
But your panic falls on deaf ears
This is where you've brought yourself
And this is what you've always feared
There's a faceless crowd, with no sympathy
So you can scream out loud
But there's no one listening

Say so long to innocence
From underneath the evidence
You taste like Heaven
But God knows your built for sin

The whole "second wind" is a sweet concept. That save my hide a few times. I picked Mordicai this time around and I am not sure if I am a fan of his "build." There isn't really a sniper aspect to it. You attack one critter, they all come running. There is no real stealth which pisses me off. The is the perk of a sniper build. Oh well...

I'm a level 7-8'ish and I am looking forward to co-op mode. The split screen is an awesome idea as well. All in all, it's a replayed game concept (Oblivion, FO3) but it's different in it's own right. I am happy with it so far.
its HOT when a chick with big BEWBS can give a game review like this.

You do have to keep some of the other weapons on hand however because ammo manangment is kinda hard in the begining.

I am thinking starting a new game pretty soon to to play as lilith, do wish my hotel room had a better internet connection so I could play on live.
It depends. I haven't ran out of ammo provided I snipe off what I can and then switch to "Lady Finger" or "The Clipper." I also use my melee weapon often as well. Pick off the higher ups right away and then deal with the lesser ones up close and personal. The grenades come in handy with the skags. Get up on a high point, draw them in, and then grenade them. I dunno. I don't like that there is not a stealth aspect to the sniper build. I've been dumping points into accuracy ATM and I'm not sure which way I am going to build after that. I could stick with one tier but I think I'd rather have a hybrid build.

I kind of wanted to play Lilith but meh... stereotypical female character. The "phase walk" seemed cool but again, went with the sniper. I'm still unsure about Bloodwing. I'm dunno if I like having him or not. He came in handy when fighting "Scar" the skag but meh... I don't necessarily need him.

I may be mistaken, but doesn't the background music resemble the music from Bram Stokers Dracula (the 1992 movie)?
