That's a very interesting study of the psychology of Fallout 3. I haven't gotten the game yet (I know, I know, shame on me), but from reviews, articles, and word-of-mouth, it's really looking like a very morally charged experience.

I certainly hope that it's better than Bioshock's valiant but failed attempt to bring an element of emotion to in-game choices. And in Oblivion I always felt like I could get away with murder (literally and figuratively) without any real emotional or physical consequences.

Regardless, Fallout is definitely on my must-buy list for the coming month.
