Ok let me first say something before you leave and eventually go to the next thread so let me say it. I know it is a game that came out in 2008. The thing is I need to start some where to say something without being beating to death by raging people with my own limbs. Now that I got that out of the way I might as well say I am an awful writer so most of this will be me putting thoughts down before I forget them. Now to Fallout 3. I have to say that this isn't the game I was thinking of when i picked it up. I for one played Fallout before this part and I have to say I loved / hated the game. For me the Fallout series was not a game as it was a movie with some watcher input. Now why did I say this? Well for one it proves anything has the possibility of being a gem. When I heard about Fallout 3 I was quite happy. Suddenly that changed to possible fear when it was changed gameplay wise. So lets leave memory lane to this installment. Now first thing is that they did do a good job at making something to at least appear to be fallout with the changes and then when you start playing the feeling of "this is Fallout" turns into "this is Fallout in a different perspective". Yes the overhaul of the game was good but it could of use some more links to the original story than "here is the brotherhood of steel, enclave, a vault, and the US and ever other country is blown up. Have fun!" Yet in the end I liked it. It does require at least a look.
