Fallout: Des Moines. Lots of Brahmin, hordes of bloodthirsty mutant crows (around the ruins of the Principal Building), and a wacky cult of ghouls that worship the last Iowa State Fair Buttercow.

I know, I'm a avid fan myself. But that doesn't mean there absolute nothing left. Chances are, there are still a few survivors left. But my point is, we don't know much about the rest of the world during the war and even less after the war, there is much more room for development (story-wise) than in any other place in North-America.azraelthor said:
Well, I live in a little Pennsylvanian town, so I would say Fallout: Pittsburgh, but they already did that with The Pitt for FO3.
What I think would be awesome is Fallout: New York. have most of Manhatten sunk with only the sky-scrapers left above the water, with skyways connecting them.

I would personally like to see the US united under the banner of the NCR then have them send the Player Character across the ocean to Europe or Africa. OR maybe Japan or Russiadeckai said:
Fallout: Seattle
Well, there are a lot of really tall buildings to explore. And in a few years, there will be a subway. Plus, we've got Microsoft and Nintendo in this area, so lots of technology. And Zymogenetics.... I don't know what they do, but I see their building all the time (it's all large and isolated) and I feel like something ominous could come out of there.

Fallout: Paris
I want to fight beret-wearing raiders and mutants who attack me with giant baguettes

Fallout Vancouver or Montreal... or Buffalo. I live in Seattle, I just think a snowy techno-medieval setting would be awesome.
EDIT: I guess it would be called something different. Fallout: New Vegas was about a post-apocalyptic city state in where only the strong and the privileged can survive. It's set in Las Vegas, but the change the name and vibe. I was thinking of Fallout: Northern Wastes, years after Fallout 2 (which was set in Oregon) and there could be a mystery involving the war between the US and China which broke out in Anchorage.

What people forget is that a Fallout Location would only work in America or possibly in China. For obvious reasons that makes the series the way it is. I think a Fallout New York could work.
I should clarify that I misspoke; 'misspell' isn't really the best term to describe their title choices, more like they add a twist to the titular locations of their games. For example, 'The Capital Wasteland' (I know, Bethesda, not Obsidian) is a twist on Washington being the capital of the United States; or 'New Vegas' as a twist on 'Las Vegas'; or 'The Pit' (also Bethesda) as a twist on "Pittsburgh". I interpreted it as them merely staying in touch with the whole 'post-apocalypse' theme as it implies that mankind has been bombed back to a new dark age and is now improperly referring to former states and cities by nicknames and abbreviations as a sign of gross ignorance brought by the collapse of western civilization.azraelthor said:
Following the pattern, "Road Island" because 'rhode' is pronounced the same way as 'road' and could possibly be used to tease at the possibility of vehicle combat a la road warrior, which heavily influenced Wasteland and the Fallout games that came after it.
Never heard of MIT referred to as 'The Commonwealth'. Huh - cool to know, thanks. That actually gives context to the whole FO3 reference of the commonwealth.
Oh ok I was thinking the Big Empty but that was people just reading MT as the two the two letters and deciding that it sounds like empty. But I do see what you are sayingChimichanga said:
Fallout: San Francisco
I think it would work, the map would cover the bay area and places like Google, Apple, Nasa, and other big companies around here would be nuked. We'd actually be one of the first places to be nuked because the command center for west coastal defense is located here too. Not to mention the Golden Gate Bridge.

Sadly, I think this is a good point about the tone, humor, and established mythos of the series.Skullkid4187 said:
But purely from an imaginative point of view, I would love to see Fallout: Tokyo. Imagine the re- emergence of technology and conflicting ideology of New Vegas... with Japanese future technology. I think a faction of people who rebuilt a community of ninjas would be right at home in the series. Not that they would do it, I'm just considering the Rule of Cool potential.
