SUMMARY:
Well. I got this game for Christmas in 2008. I played through the first bit and never touched it. Scared the living hell out of me. But I picked it up in about July, and I can't stop playing it. Here's why.

Starting off, the game will feel odd and foreign to you. But over time, you get used to every part of it. My first point is the in-depth gameplay. This game goes above and beyond. There are ton's of ways you can take out enemies, ways to play the game, skills to expertise, and choices to make. Throughout the game you can choose different weapons, different tactics and different choices....

If Bethesda has ever had a project in the works that could rival the multi-award winning behemoth that is The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Fallout 3 is it. The previous titles in the series hadn’t been as anticipated or well known as the third instalment, in fact a great majority of post-Oblivion Bethesda fans probably hadn’t heard of Fallout. The first two instalments of the series were still RPGs, but more of the conventional kind; its trademarks being the turn based combat and the Birdseye view over the character. However, Fallout 3 is the same as previous titles at heart but adapted to a more Oblivion-esque, modernised style.

The Fallout 3 is set in a post-nuclear America. A war against China led to a climax in which China nuked the entire country, creating the vast wastelands which you traverse, and also the vile mutations you battle against. However, some people were luckier than others, just before the bombs dropped, those who had invested in Vaults fled...

THE GOOD:
-NEARLY EVERYTHING

THE BAD:

SUMMARY:
Fallout 3 is an RPG (Role-Playing-Game) developed by Bethesda. People who played the first three games will not be completely satisfied, as it does strip some of the qualities the first and second ones had. But, even if you haven't played the first two or three, Fallout 3 is still a great game. It kind of sums up the important stuff from the past games, along with adding a slightly new experiance for veterans. And, although this takes place in the future, in the year 2277 to be exact, even people who don't care much for the futuristic games will probably find this game fun.

Fallout 3 also provides an endless ammount of replay value. One time through, you might to be the nicest person ever, never cheating people out, always ensuring the peopel are safe, etc. The next time, you might want to evil. You might want to kill everybody in sight, innocent or guility...
