The Good

The Bad
The story and characters can feel a bit sterile Combat feels mildly clunky.





Synopsis
Fallout 3 is a extraordinary First/Third Person RPG, this is a world similar to ares but a nuclear war occurred leaving it a desolate wasteland filled with tons of weird creatures and few normal people. You being one of the normal people have to grow up and try and rescue the world by preforming tons of different tasks!






Story (Credit to Gamespot)
This focus is obvious from the first hour of the game, in which character creation and story exposition are beautifully woven together. It's an introduction best experienced on your own rather than described in detail here, but it does set up Fallout 3's framework: It's the year 2277, and you and your father are residents of Vault 101, one of many such constructs that shelter the earth's population from the dangers of postnuclear destruction. When dad escapes the vault without so much as a goodbye, you go off in search of him, only to find yourself snagged in a political and scientific tug of war that lets you change the course of the future. As you make your way through the decaying remnants of the District and its surrounding areas (you'll visit Arlington, Chevy Chase, and other suburban locales), you encounter passive-aggressive ghouls, a bumbling scientist, and an old Fallout friend named Harold who has, well, a lot on his mind. Another highlight is a diminutive collective of Lord of the Flies-esque refugees who reluctantly welcome you into their society.





Gameplay
Fallout 3 is a game that feels like it will never end. There are so many campaign like quests and mini quests on the side. Do to how big the game is, it does get a little laggy at certain points but not usually. One of the great things about this game is the feature to speak to other characters. In fallout you actually build your character from scratch make him just like you. There fore you can pretty much say whatever you like to other characters


Graphics
The graphics are amazing considering that this game is from 09 and is pushing the limits to how big it is for an Xbox game. Most of the characters look as if they were real but they still could be a bit better. The one huge land is called The Wasteland and i would say all around the graphics get a 8/10

If you love RPG/Open ended games Fallout 3 won't disappoint you.
I would recommend this game if you haven't played it.

If you feel this deserves a rating vote up above :thumbsup:
