    Post-apocalyptic fun

    Let me start this off by saying that Fallout 3 is an amazingly well done game. There are a few bigger snags to it, like the clunky combat system and the fact that people's eyes in the game don't move or wink, but it's all fogiveable - the expierience is great.  There are a lot of many interesting charecters to meet in the world of Fallout 3, such as Harold, Three-Dog (who I killed, because he spoke bad of me on the radio) and others. The quests are also good, and varied.  I love the storyline of the game, though I was dissapointed by the ending. I was expecting better. All in all, Fallout 3 is one of the most beautiful, detailed and fun games out there. Heck, you can even blow up a town with a nuke!

    Pros:

    Great graphics.
    Very well designed charecters, good storyline.
    A lot of stuff to do besides the main quest.
    Soundtrack.

    Cons:

    The combat is clunky, but you'll do with V.A.T.S.
    The wasteland is a great place, but there's a huge travel distance between places that you haven't discovered yet.
    Some glitches here and there

    9/10

In fact there are a huge amount of similarities between this and Oblivion, although instead of wande...

      Fallout 3 is flawed fun 0

      Fallout 3 is a big, big game. And when a game has such a quantity of content, glitches, both tiny and big, are pretty much unavoidable.  Therefore, this new Fallout, that really doesn't have a whole lot in common with the previous ones aside from the theme, is riddled with glitches. However, if you are willing to look past those mistakes, you'll find a deep and expansive game, that has plenty of great moments and lots of things to see and find.It's a wastelandFallout 3 is set in the post-apocaly...
