Still in making, but it be hard to choose fallout online or Star wars the old republic.....
Hard choice but I think I would go toward Star wars, since I been a huge fan of that much longer than fallout :o
Tho fallout online....kinda ruining the single player game type which star wars did after Knight of the old republic sith lord... :facepalm:
