War. War never changes.
From Wikipedia
Fallout 3 is an action role-playing game released by Bethesda Game Studios.[5][10] It is the third major game in the Fallout series, which has also spawned the spin-offs Fallout Tactics and Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel.
Fallout 3 takes place in the year 2277, 30 years after the setting of Fallout 2 and 200 years after the nuclear war that devastated the game's world.[11] The game places the player in the role of an inhabitant of Vault 101, a survival shelter designed to protect a small number of humans from the nuclear fallout. When the player's father disappears in mysterious circumstances, the player is forced to escape from the Vault and journey into the ruins of Washington D.C. to track him down. Along the way the player is assisted by a number of other human survivors and must battle a myriad of enemies that now inhabit the wasteland. The game has an attribute and combat system typical of an action role-playing game but also incorporates elements of first-person shooter and survival horror games.
This topic is long overdue, man. Where's the Fallout love? Anyway, Fallout 3 came out for PC and XBOX 360 about two weeks ago, and by now mostly everyone who's interested has either played it, beat it, or planning to play it. I've beaten it about a few days ago (for PC) and I have this to say; this game is like crack. I literally could not put it down until I was finished, and I had like two or three all nighters playing this game, exploring the wastelands, seeing how people made it in the post apocalyptic world, and trying to piece together what happened to cause the whole mess.
The game's world is HUGE, and there are STILL places I've never seen or heard of. I think it may be smaller than say Oblivion in terms of straight land mass, but there's so much to do around every corner you won't find everything in a short time no matter what you do. I'm sort of glad I beat the game only because I got my life back.
But yeah, I'll throw in more thoughts as the topic goes along. Discuss! Spoilers are fair game, as long as you use the right tags and hide them!
