Fallout 3 - Xbox 360

I was worried that I may not like this game. Now after playing it and understand how this game works I think it's the best game I've ever played. This is an Open World, RPG/Action, FPS/3rd person Adventure game. The graphics are good, the gameplay is superb, and want you can do is massive. The game starts in 2077 where, supposedly, the US stayed in the 1950's culture. That was until the bombs fell and we had to rebuild what was left of the countries culture of the United States. But However, 200 years have passed by [2277]and that is were your life begins. You have lots of weapons to choose from and can make your own, and body armor. Two different ways to take down you opponents, Two different camera options First Person View [FPS] or Third Person which is behind the character you're controlling. Be good, Be Bad [This Effects Gamplay Experience], kill people (People's Appendges do come apart, that includes yours), get addicted to drugs or alcohol (Your Choice). Play it, trust me it's big and it is good.

This game was a little slow to start with but once you get to level 8 or so it starts to pick up. My ONLY complaint about this game is that for now the highest level you can get to is 20. After that XP just stops. It does take a while for you to get a nice little ammo cache though too but that's just part of the game. Overall this game has a great storyline with lots of quests to do on the side.

I will preface this review by saying that my personal preference for games is the First Person Shooter genre (FPS), preferably ones with a dystopian or sci-fi theme (Halo, etc). Fallout is unique in that the play is nonlinear, which makes for an engaging experience. You determine the initial characteristics and attributes of your character, and each decision you make following your escape from Vault 101 impacts those attributes. There are tons of weapons, lots of NPCs, a decent amount of quests (marked and unmarked), spooky ambience and freaky zombie-like creatures. The stress relief of being able to kill things, and the depth of an RPG-- it's a win-win. There are a few bugs and glitches here and there-- just remember to save frequently, and you'll be just fine. Online there is a Fallout 3 wikipedia called "The Vault" which has a comprehensive walkthrough and virtually any information you could possibly want regarding players, places, weapons, armor, etc. I highly recommend new players look it up online, as it saves some frustration in the short term. I've been playing for a few weeks now, and its still fun. Remember to explore the whole map and complete the side quests before completing the main quest tho. Overall, lots of fun, but a co-op mode would have been nice. Recommended.

Great Role playing game, one of the best hands down. I do warn though, do not complete the main quest in the game first, if you do then the game is over and you can't go back to do the smaller quests. Graphics and gameplay are fantastic, vast variety of weaponry and an open terrain to explore. Give this game a chance I'm sure you like it. This game is from the creators of Oblivion so if you like RPG or First person shooters than this is the game for you. Get it while you can!!!!!!!!!!

I'll admit that at first I didn't like the game but once I got use to the game play I've been addicted! Only thing that I hate is the fact that you have to have your weapons repaired throughout the game. In my opinion this game is better than Oblivion. Don't get me wrong Oblivion is fun but I think Fallout is better. If you give this game a chance it is well worth the cash and time. I would definately recommend this game to RPG fans.

this game is a fantastic game! i play it for hours and the addons from Live make the game just come to life. broken steel, the pitt, and op. anchorage just add to the excitement

This is the most addicting game I have ever played. It's full of adventure and a very long game granted you do all the side quests. If you just stick to the story line it's very short. Plenty to do!

Without a doubt this is one of the best games of all time. The world of Fallout 3 is simply amazing. The graphics are top notch, the voice acting is great, the story is amazing, and it's going to take you a good long while to beat it. After I finished my game i looked at the total time and i had put in more that 150 hours of game time. The only downside of the game was that you could not continue playing after you beat the end of the game, but thanks to some recent downloadable content, called Broken Steel, you can now play after the ending of the game. If you are looking for a game that you can really get immersed into and is worth the money then Fallout 3 is the game for you.

This game is great overall its a mix of an RPG & first person shooter, very lengthy with bonus add-on from xbox live marketplace making the game even more lengthy. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME. It's well worth the money, and the graphics are pretty awesome too. BONUS you can also control what you say to people and the outcome of friends or not friends with whom you choose. BUY IT AND ENJOY!!!

Although there's a 3 behind the name Fallout do not mistake this game as a true sequel to the series. Fallout was a true CRPG this is nothing more than a FPS (first person shooter) with RGP (role playing game) bits sprinkled in for...flavor? The creators of this abomination were responsible for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, that's all nice and all but this is no excuse for take the original plot and trashing it in the name of financial gain....My suggestion is play the first 2 games and then compare. Buy at your own risk!
