Decent game but I was expecting more. Possible Spoilers
by Syldain on November 2, 2008
Pros: It's a Fallout title and it stays pretty true to the original.
Cons: Characters you talked to aren't very memorable.
Item descriptions are gone.
Want to know why the world feels so big? It's because your run speed is horrible.
Feels more FPS then an RPG. (VATS system not as useful as I thought it would be)Summary: It's great that Bethseda took up the challenge of creating Fallout 3 and while they did a good job it feels like they left out alot of the little ...
Summary: It's great that Bethseda took up the challenge of creating Fallout 3 and while they did a good job it feels like they left out alot of the little things that made Fallout feel edgy. The humor in the game just wasn't there (Where's pip boy?). I used to love reading the little descriptions that came with weapons or other items. The people you meet aren't very memorable either. Aside from Moira in Megaton I didn't really feel anything for most of the others I met.
I'm a hardcore fan and I still play Fallout, Fallout 2 and yes Tactics so I'm not sure if I just expected more. I'll still play Fallout 3 just to complete all the little quests but I'm hoping if they do a 4th they'll have a better and longer main storyline.2 out of 2 users found this user opinion helpful.

Completely fantastic game!!
by freckling07 on October 29, 2008
Pros: Aside from the graphics being awesome, the story line and customization allowed by FO3 are incredible. Smooth movements, good audio, easy controls/interface, and LOADS OF FUN!! what else can you ask for?
Cons: walking around takes forever to get anywhere
Summary: I love the options available, being to choose who your character is and what he/she is about. The action sequences and dialog speak for themselves. A truly rad game.

Best Game in a LONG TIME!
by ashows on June 7, 2009
Pros: THIS is the MOST memorable game! I find myself looking up the stories and things relating to Fallout on the internet cause I got so interested in it!
-Big, Big World
-Choose your Destiny.
-V.A.T.S.
-Lot More!Cons: -At some points, laggy. (Solved when Installed on Xbox 360 Hard Drive.)
-Sometimes weird diologes and interactions. (Like a kid talked bad about her mother to me, like she wasn't around, but she was next to us, taking no notice!)Summary: Just Get It and Stop Reading the Complaints. Apparantly Those People don't like RPG's!
I find myself only using the V.A.T.S. It is SO COOL! ...Summary: Just Get It and Stop Reading the Complaints. Apparantly Those People don't like RPG's!
It is in my TOP 5 VIDEO GAMES EVER!
I find myself only using the V.A.T.S. It is SO COOL!
And Plus, Its Washington D.C. and Landscape in a Post-Nuclear Time! What can get better than that! And the Atomic Age-looking buildings and cars! Incredible!

Possibly the Greatest RPG/FPS hybrid ever!
by Blue_Sky19 on April 10, 2009
Pros: Stunning Visuals;Execellent Quests;Breathing world;Authentic Fallout Humor;An endless world with stunning replication of the D.C. area, full customization every aspect of wasteland life, true "survival like" feel. VAT's cinematic kills, perks we love
Cons: Less "FPS" feel than expected, third person views unrealistic
Summary: With the new DLC, there is no reason a true gamer shouldn't play it, on par with half life!
BTW- Beats Oblivion in my prefs.Summary: With the new DLC, there is no reason a true gamer shouldn't play it, on par with half life!

Total crap
by kenmil01 on February 17, 2009
Pros: None that I can think of.
Cons: Endless conversation and totally unrealistic characters

Summary: If you like a game where you spend most of your time engaged in stupid conversation with equally stupid characters, then this is for you. Those characters, by the way, seem to be able to take several shots to the head without any adverse reaction. Boring, boring, boring.

- Description: Vault-Tec engineers have worked around the clock on an interactive reproduction of Wasteland life for you to enjoy from the comfort of your own vault. Included is an expansive world, unique combat, shockingly realistic visuals, tons of player choice, and an incredible cast of dynamic characters. Every minute is a fight for survival against the terrors of the outside world - radiation, super mutants, and hostile mutated creatures. From Vault-Tec, America's First Choice in Post Nuclear Simulation! For 200 years, Vault 101 has faithfully served the surviving residents of Washington DC and its environs, now known as the Capital Wasteland. Though the global atomic war of 2077 left the US all but destroyed, the residents of Vault 101 enjoy a life free from the constant stress of the outside world. Giant insects, raiders, slavers, and yes, even super mutants are all no match for superior Vault-Tec engineering. Yet one fateful morning, you awake to find that your father has defied the overseer and left the comfort and security afforded by Vault 101 for reasons unknown. Leaving the only home you've ever known, you emerge from the Vault into the harsh Wasteland sun to search for your father, and the truth.
