Fallout 3 is better than real life because...

[MiracleOfSound]

Due to the lack of internet and noughties culture, nobody says 'cool story bro' or sings Spider Pig

Your dad is invincible

Spoiler

(until he gets near water purifiers)

You don't have to bother changing your leg movement to move diagonally, you can just glide along.

YOu can instantly create complex weaponry while mid-battle.

 

[sms_117b]

Because if it's not used for a few days your stats don't decrease

Because it has interacting robots

Because cars are fueled by nuclear reactors

Advantages

-I can talk to a tree C:
-I can kill stuff
-Moar killing
-Power Armour
-Mini nukes
-Freedom (EDIT: Then again)
-I can side moonwalk

Disadvantages

-Crap Snipers
-No internet D:
-You can get addicted to alcohol after 3 bottles :C
-Mine town (do not want to go there :U)
-I'd finish my life in about 3 days and then I would be stopped by an invisible wall (soooo 20th century ;P )

Look up the wiki, the sniper isn't accurate, but it's very precise. You just need to adjust it accordingly. What's the mine town like? I lied to her.

 

[SonicKoala]

You can freeze time

Vendors are always willing to pay something for any piece of trash you pick up off the ground

You can carry thousands of pounds of weapons - the only penalty is you walk a little slower

You can travel anywhere you want in a matter of seconds

 

[AngloDoom]

Miracle water, and the ability to not only befriend animals, but have them rally to your cause.

 

[Cmwissy]

Because your Social Skills are determined by your Charisma.

[me] [speech 100%] I'll disarm the bomb for 500 caps

I SUDDENLY CHANGED MY MIND - HERE'S 500 CAPS!

You can't have sex in Fallout 3.

/thread

Get the animated Prostitution mod, and you can.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own this mod, I just know about it

OT:

You can run around a giant wasteland, kill anything you want, and when you level up your entire genetic makeup can be upgraded through the use of perks.

Lots of interesting stories, unlike real life ^^

Gustav's place

Many vaults to explore

An awesome radio station

The ability to kill the guy that owns the station, and have him replaced by a boring old woman

Mirelurk Kings

Cannibalism is common ^.^

EDIT:

Time-warp quote:

Because Pip-Boys are awesome.
I wish I had a big-ass watch that could tell me both the time of day and the condition of my body.

Agreed.

necro-whoda-whata?

Necrophilia: The practice of deriving one's sexual jollies from those who have passed away.

Drink from toilet; Regain health.

I wonder what those mutants have in thier poo that is so medicinal? They must drink Dettol or something.

I've drank from some pretty gruesome toilets in F3, one even gave me an electric shock.

 

[veloper]

because making a lot of money/caps fast is stupidly easy in this game.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Old women have the bodies of nubile twenty year olds.

Unfortunately, the Capital Wasteland is completely devoid of paper bags.

 

[DoW Lowen]

It's not... Really it isn't.

You want to experience an anarchic wasteland? Try Uganda, Somalia or Sierra Leone for a few days. You get to drink from toilets, you'd probably have to kill bandits to survive and you will probably resort to eating from garbage bins.

 

[Tekyro]

God mode. Need I say more?

 

[ThePocketWeasel]

I'd hardly say it's better overall, you know with the whole nuclear wasteland, but...you don't have to sleep, you can heal yourself with a bottle of what's essentially coca-cola. Oh and you can rob/kill people and people still think you're amazing...providing they don't see you.

Why no sir, no you needn't

Side note, off-topic:

What is the reply button for? I have clicked it accidently many times, and all it does it take you to the bottom of the screen, where the reply box already was. It doesn't quote, it doesn't specify that you are replying to that person at all...what is the point of it?

 

[SextusMaximus]

...You can drink out of toilets and get radiation sickness.

Wait.

For lazies.

You can fire a double barrel shotgun at a feral ghouls head.

'cuz da cripz aint got nuthin on the tunnel snakez!!!!

 

[Communist partisan]

It isn't better than reall live cos' it's no spas 12 in it...
