Mel and I have spent around 50 hours playing Fallout 3 in the past week. It's pretty good.
It was a tough call, but I picked the PS3 version of the game over the PC version, forsaking superior graphics and input devices for the ability to play on the big screen from the couch. So far, it's been worth the added difficulty of aiming with a joypad (instead of a mouse) to bring Mel into the game. She likes to sit with me, pointing out traps, enemies, and loot while reading GameFAQs and a Fallout Wiki. She's been immensely helpful in telling me when I should maybe go back and look harder in a particular room to find a skill book I missed and she's already decided what my ideal armor is going to be and researched how I can find it.
