Fallout 3 (360, PS3, PC)

November 21st, 2008 Posted by Alex Beech

Fallout begins with your birth and rapidly moves you through your youth, introducing you to the controls and your character. The paced start is welcomed as after Fallout thrusts you into its post-apocalyptic-alternate-near-future-world you realize how open it is.

You emerge alone, with only one vague objective and no clue how to achieve it. You decide your route and personality through the game. Focus on the quests characters give you or the main quest. Or shoot people before they give you quests. It’s up to you.

Fallout is vast. Like any game world this size allowances have to be made. The closer you look the more flaws you see. But problems are rare and the impact on the game is usually negligible. It would be possible to spend hundreds of hours exploring the world and still not find and do everything. The best thing is you’ll want to. Maybe twice.

Character customization isn’t limited to appearance.

    Yeah right. Written by 10 year olds with a main quest that looks like a retarded kid when compared to the rest of the RPGs around, this game is only good for morons who love to be spoonfed everything and resent any games that poses even the slightest challenge. Fallout 3 is a disgrace wrapped around shiny graphics and occasional brilliant side quests. Nothing more.

    I played it once. Uninstalled and burned the DVD. An epic waste of my money.
