Fallout 3 was a pleasant surprise for me. Let me break down why I didn't expect to like it.
1.) Bethesda? Ew, didn't and still don't like their other games.
2.) Real time? But...but fallout is turn based.
3.) First person shooter-esque? Blech, shooters are so main stream (/hipster) But...
If you are willing to look at older exclusives (and like RPGs), Valkyria Chronicles and Disgaea 3 are great fun. The Ratchet and Clank games are quite good as well. No, I'm not much of an FPS guy, how could you tell?
Personally, I prefer the dub of whatever anime. I don't watch a whole lot of them, but the subbed versions I always end up reading instead of watching. If I wanted to read, I'd grab a book or the manga of whatever the show is. I've heard the One Piece dub is an absolute travesty, but I never...

Arcanum on the PC seems to have been fairly obscure, I've never met anybody else who's played it at least. The Legend of Legaia on the PS1 is also an overlooked gem, the sequel less so.
The culture of the Fallout world never got out of the 50s or so. All of the "old" music in the game is the "new releases" of the culture. Additionally, Fallout loves it some references. Why write some old style music when you can just use the good old stuff?

Went to Opera today. Would have been FML enough without everyone bursting into flames and the lead actress going on about mito-somethings...
