    Fallout 3 is okay, the series hasn't been totally flandarized by this point but you can totally feel that it is on its way.

    I would not recommend Fallout 3.

    This game is copycat of fallout 1,2 in many ways. Very few new stories are added. Not even a proper RPG

    Fallout 3 is one of my favourite games of all time, this is including the bugs that had my friends and I in stitches for what felt like hours. Bethesda took from fantastic predecessors to build a first/third Person Open world game with hours of playability and Lore. PLUS COSTUMES

    The Story allows for huge possibilities and the graphics were NICE!

    Unfortunately the game does come with bugs but as mentioned, it is usually not gamebreaking and mostly entertaining to watch.

    This game gave us the need for things we didn't know we wanted until it was released, weapons customization (we want it because this game doesn't have it)    … Expand

    Don't get the Steam version and you wont have as much issues, an excellent game, the story doesn't offer many options but is bit less far-fetched than New Vegas and most of Fallout 3's map (except DC) is interesting and cool, Anchorage is also still my favorite Fallout DLC

    In my opinion one of the best RPG's ever made and a game that will always have a place in my heart. If you enjoy freedom and exploring, character customisation and getting immersed in a video game world then this will not let you down, it feels real! like the world actually exists and its your playground to do whatever you like. Every bit as good today as it was when it was released!

    This game is truly amazing. It’s so fun to explore and doing missions is so addictive and fun. The game presents challenges that are fun to adapt to. These challenges are not frustrating because it all depends on how you play the game (how much ammo you waste, what type of build you want, and who you ally with). Even in 2021, this game ages perfectly and is just a fun time.

    Look I can completely respect anybody's opinions and stuff for liking this game, and I'm not saying you can't enjoy Fallout 3, but you have to admit that Fallout 3 is objectively the worst Fallout, as there is little to no emotional stakes and dilemmas for your character to come across in the world of Fallout 3.

As in, there is no real choices to be made as you can only ever be either a goodie two shoes or Satan, there is no grey area where different opinions can lead to different choices that be both good or bad in different perspectives like in the previous games or even Fallout New Vegas. Also Todd Howard is an atrocious game designer, as he made the terrible mistake of generally leveling every enemy in the game to be beatable by a low level character as he thought that would be the easy solution to solving the problem of "if the player can go anywhere immediately how can we make sure they don't unfairly die against high level enemies?" As a result after a few level ups you are practically unstoppable and all sense of danger or tension from combat is erased. Another example Todd's lazy excuses for game design would be the quest marker, instead of using elements of the game's potential design or atmosphere to give the player a sense of direction he lazily put a marker in the bottom corner of our screen to help us. I ask you this, is it challenging or rewarding to discover a new area from walking in a straight line? No? I thought so. Now with all this negativity there is some positive things to be said about Fallout 3, like you said simply exploring the world can just be really fun in its own right and a good chunk of those side quests can be really engaging. However, what Bethesda and a lot of game reviewers say about this game, that it's a game about player choice and freedom, with a grand amount of good quality content when the evidence I provided with this comment clearly states the contrary, you should know that they are wrong, and that Fallout 3 is objectively the worst game in the series.

    A good representation of what can go wrong when designing an open world. Game is boring, badly balanced, with an hilariously dumb morality set in poor dialogues, served by streamlined systems that didn't get a second thought. It is a mediocre FPS and an insult to all what original Fallout devs achieved with 1 and 2.

    I know the point of Fallout is to explore a post-apocalyptic world, but after a 100 hours of seeing the exact same landscapes, it gets kind of boring. Ignoring that, the game's story and characters are truly great.

    Fallout 3
    To start, I must say that I met the franchise for New Vegas, since Fallout 3 simply refuses to run on modern PCs, so I played the PS3 version, which is not perfect, but runs well. It has some light frame drops and crashed two or three times.
    I will try to be neutral and succinct in this analysis, without comparing the two games. However, I say that a series of items and    Fallout 3
    To start, I must say that I met the franchise for New Vegas, since Fallout 3 simply refuses to run on modern PCs, so I played the PS3 version, which is not perfect, but runs well. It has some light frame drops and crashed two or three times.
    I will try to be neutral and succinct in this analysis, without comparing the two games. However, I say that a series of items and possibilities created by Obisidian (such as the superstimpacks, the weapon repair kit, among others) in its masterpiece are missing,and would be really good to have them. Still Fallout 3 is an excellent game, where Bethesda Game Studios got it right in many ways, making a game that was revolutionary in its day.
    The game starts smoothly, where we create our character and see him grow inside Vault 101, we receive our Pip-Boy and we have the combat tutorial. Then suddenly our protagonist's life is turned upside down, when his father leaves the Vault without authorization, arousing the ire of the Overseer. So we have to run for our lives, entering the desolate lands of post-nuclear war Washington for the first time.
    I begin by highlighting the similarities with the first Fallout, where we also control a 19-year-old who is forced to leave the Vault and face the “outside world”. At the beginning we only have a pistol, little ammunition, some melee weapon, some stimpacks and the most expert players will already have some simple armor, from the guards who dared to cross our path during the escape.
    Now we must explore this open world, to find our father. The map is not that big, but at the time it was quite impressive. We have several different environments to explore, with many interesting locations, giving us the feeling that each of those places has its own history, which we would like to know.
    Our choices matter a lot, we can be a hero or a villain, according to the Karma system. Personally I prefer the path of goodness, which gives the feeling of accomplishment, in addition to bringing some extra rewards, like the items I earn every time I go to Megaton, for saving the city.
    In addition to the main quest, which is very linear,simple, relatively short and can be completed in a few hours. However players who like to explore and hunt for good items will take around 40 to get everything, reach the maximum level, with the best weapons and armor. My complaint is that the maximum level is 20, which I consider low, forcing the player to be very wise and careful when it comes to evolving his character. I believe that is why it takes so long to gain another level.
    As for secondary quests, we have one in each city or larger location, with several inhabitants. There aren't many, but they are enough to explore the map more and earn good items. I even completed almost all of them, except for one that would make me lose karma and one that was given by slave owners, who were too dead to talk to me.
    Still, we are not obliged to know most of the scenario. There are several Vaults that I didn't even get to, because I thought I could go there later. Anyway, it depends on each player.
    The enemies are not many and a little repetitive, but they are interested and good to face, forcing us to act differently with each one of them. A serious problem is its hit detection, which will only register its attacks if we hit them right in the center. Often the aim will be red, but because it is not precisely aimed, we will only be wasting ammunition, which is not that abundant.
    Another complaint I have is regarding the durability of the items. The weapons wear out very quickly, requiring constant repairs. Armors look like they are made of paper because they wear out very fast, even power armor. So much so that this problem was corrected in the successor games.
    However, like any good RPG, it is very pleasant to get stronger and stronger, to be able to go where and when you want, in addition to being able to do what you want, reaching one of the various endings, each player being able to reach the one they prefer. Weapons are good and efficient, NPCs are interesting to talk to, each place has an aura of desolation and mystery, and should be well explored, for the maximum benefit of the player.
    Finally, I say that Fallout 3 is a sensational game. It has a simple plot, but with gameplay and exploration that stand out, good and addictive. The player will be swallowed up in that post-apocalyptic environment, wanting to stop just seeing the credits. Even more considering its low price today and low processing requirements, in addition to the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions, as well as backward compatibility with the Xbox One.
    Pros:
    Great and good game to explore
    Many good items
    Interesting quests
    Large scenario with many locations
    Cons:
    Hit detection issues
    Eventual crashes

    I really enjoyed my experience through the wasteland, It has some atmosphere feeling that I'd wish RAGE have. My only big take is that the 2nd half of the campaign just didn't hold strong as the 1st one.

Throughout the whole game you can feel that the game was made with love and soul. It is not even right to call Fallout 3 "a game"...it is a world. The fact it was released in 2008 perplexes me because the game feels like a pinnacle of gaming industry for me (please consider the fact I am quite new to the whole video games thing).

    I respect the Fallout series, but this is the worst part. From the very beginning of the game, after leaving the shelter, boredom begins. Especially the mission "Survival instructions". Why this flawed mission was added to the game is still not clear. The engine is simply disgusting, although for 2008 maybe norms.
    This game never went to the end, very boring.

It seems under every rock you find an interesting character with a unique and unexpected quest. Honestly, I wanna say everything here is near perfection, this is one of my all time favorite games. Between mods and the vanilla, there is a huge amount of content to dig up here. I love the V.A.T.S. system, it keeps this game from being just another FPS with level ups, to a live action turn based combat game almost. Why, if I love this game with such a passion is it an 8 out of 10 then?

    Windows 10 makes this game nigh unplayable on modern systems. You can get it to run. As a matter of fact I think GoG actually just sells it out of the box ready to play. But steam's version is a mess unless you put some work into it.

    The graphics are extremely dated, even when first released in 08, and there's a few bugs riddled throughout this game.

    The game boasts player choice and its effect on the endgame, but in reality, that's just not there. And if you go into the game knowing this.. well, it's just fine. Never effected my personal playthroughs because I didn't have any expectations there really. But as I grew older I realized it was kind of lame.

    Nonetheless, minus these few gripes, I personally think every other aspect of this game is just.. perfection. As I said, I think this is one of the all time greats, and it's definitely in my top 5.    … Expand

    It's not all bad, I managed to get through the main story. But I was constantly thinking: man what a great game Mass Effect was. I didn't appreciate that one as highly as I should have. Turning Fallout into a shooter, major disappointment. Making it palatable to new players and giving franchise a new lease on life, major win. Rating is the middle ground between the two.

    I am very late to the party by writing a review for this, but I decided after doing one for FO4, i'd do one for 3 as well. Now don't get me wrong, FONV is a great game, but it's not as good as FO3. I have played the tar out of this game since it was released and just began playing it again.

    Bethesda did an awesome job on this game. It's not only (imho) the best game in the fallout series, and one of the best games ever made, but Bethesda's finest creation. Yes, there's Morrowind and Skyrim, but FO3 is still better. Any ways, here is my list of the Good and Bad points for FO3.

    THE GOOD

    Gripping and Intriguing story.
    Colorful and memorable characters.
    Incredible voice acting.
    Superb musical tracks.
    GNR Radio and Three Dog are wickedly cool!
    Beautifully detailed world.
    Very nice graphics for 2008.
    "Broken Steel" DLC is as good as the main game.
    Lots of quests with lots of twists.
    Tons of replay value due to character choices.
    Exploration is awesome. Just awesome!

    THE BAD

    Prone to the occasional freeze or crash. SAVE OFTEN.

    That's about it. As you can see, despite that 1 BAD point, I have nothing negative to say about the game. It's a true masterpiece and I thank Mr. Howard and all the DEVS at Bethesda for making FO3 for us. 10/10.    … Expand

    I played the first two Fallout titles after finishing this one. I enjoyed the first two maybe a bit MORE than this one, but Fallout 3 is a pretty good game on its own. The story is good and has meat to it, and the characters are memorable. The graphics are meh, especially for today's standard, however the soundtrack and the environment the old tunes created was unmistakable.

    Fallout 3 is a disappointment that unfortunately portended a negative turn for the series. The opening segment of the game is strong but the rest of the game is simply shallow at best. The characters aren't particularly well-written and the plot is not very interesting. Also, the ending is a big let down as well. I would recommend that you probably avoid this installment of the series.

    But I managed to override those issues, and I could replay it again, and in the end the only thing that I could not get to work was the fact that Steam was not counting properly my game time.

    The graphics are very good, for 2008 standards, and the map is huge. Traversing it and see all its destruction makes us feel lonely and in the end of the world. But we always can overcome that feeling with some music, and the 50's style music that we find in the radio make us think how the world was before.

    The game play, animations and A.I. has not aged well. While the DLC super tanked health/damage enemies can be an annoying grind in time and resources to put down.

    Once all the bugs were fixed and the DLCs came out for the game of the year edition it is a fantastic game with a great story. I think it is the best fallout. It has choices that are consequential and the fact the aiming system isn't perfect adds to the combat. It makes it more of an rpg not being able to rely on aiming so you have to use VATS. Along with New Vegas this is my favorite Fallout.

I was playing the GOTY edition and thought the bugs would be fixed, but nope. It's Bugthesda after all. And I don't care about bugs like glitches, people flying and so on. I'm talking about bugs, that make you unable to progress in the game. This is a joke my friends. I had to use console commands, so I could move on with the game as the cutscene that was supposed to show up in Finding the Garden of Eden never did. Had to restart the mission, then I had problems with npcs in other missions, where I would finish the mission, walk up to the npc to tell him/her that I've done the job, yet couldn't speak with them. Sometimes the npcs would disappear, so I would have to clone them. This game is a complete mess. For this alone, I can't call it a good game. It's not a good game when you need console commands to finish it. But but... I love the atmosphere and the places. Loved some missions too. Mostly side quests, because the main storyline is a joke. Fallout 3 isn't even half as good as New Vegas is. And it certainly can't touch the previous Fallout games. Still, I had fun with the game, even when the stupid bugs tried to ruin the whole experience. It's a 7/10. I don't recommend it to people, that hate when game crashes. I counted... game crashed 56 times while I was playing it. It's crazy. Pickens hardly approves!… Expand

    incredible game that still holds up several years later. It has many glitches and the main story is weak. Everything else about the game is amazing.

    I started to play the Fallout games with New Vegas. It was a nice experience but I couldn't enjoy the factions system, it seemed too forced and burlesque.

I decided to try Fallout 3 only this year and I knew i could use some mods to make it shiner.

    I couldn' t expect this game to be so good by reading some reviews. I fact there is everything I wish for a smart RPG: some interesting dialogs, a coherent and immersive world and a good leveldesign. The VATS system combat is also a great success and one of the keys of the hypnotic pleasure you get from playing a 3D fallout. Some people complain because this opus is not as fierce as the old ones, but I'm bored with the cynical writing in fiction work.    … Expand

Это потому что я всегда пишу от своего чистого сердца это как преобразовывать то что ты говоришь сразу же вот и у меня так же. У меня нет аппарата который стоит между ними и так сказать сортирует и фиксит это все. Впервые с фаллаутом 3 я познакомился еще в том году когда она скорее всего вышла, я не помню точно но вроде мне было 8 лет, я родился в 01 и скорее всего это был конец 9ого либо 10ый. Диск с игрой принес старший брат, мне он не разрешал в него играть, и я всегда мечтал поиграть в него самому в то время. Я боялся монстров, не знаю почему но икона пакета крови в пип бое меня вечно пугала и когда я смотрел на него у меня болела душа. И с этой игрой у меня связана фигня с тем что у меня в ушах начало звинеть и наверное из-за этого она мне запомнилась. И теперь наконец то в 19-ом году мои руки дошли в него нормально поиграть просто в других попытках игра вечно не хотела запускаться на современных виндувсах и я нашел решение, оказывается гоговцы перерелизнули игру с фиксами и игра работает как по маслу. И какое же мое удивление было когда я поел этого говна. Я просто не мог ожидать что игра может быть настолько плохой. Просто наверное может быть мое мнение не настолько объективное ведь я не играл в игру в 2008 или может быть я не могу сравнить её с играми того времени но блять она реально настолько плохая что пиздец! И какое же блять мое разочарование было когда я вижу оценку 91 на метакритике! Да и юзер скор блять 8 из 10! Сука! Почему люди такие говноеды? Почему сука? Почему я живу с такими долбоебами на одной ебучей планете? Из-за такой хуйни мне начинает казаться что я долбоеб а они все нормальные люди. Скорее всего этой хуйне даже есть научный термин или что-то в этом подобии. Тут даже описать не надо почему игра плоха, лор, квесты, анимации физика, стрельба, диалоги, баги. Иногда очень редко бывали интересные моменты но это очень редко. В игре нет выбора, ну он блять типа плохой или хороший, это не выбор это хуета. Смысл игры тоже хуевый найти отца который сдохнет (ОЙ БЛЯТЬ ПРОСТИТЕ ЗА СПОЙЛЕР) и вообще всем похуй и даже гг. Вообщем ну реально бля это полный калл даже для того времени.
    Ставлю хуевую оценку но не ниже как в Скайриме потому что более менее в эту залупу можно поиграть и получить "какое-то" удовольствие.    … Expand

    One of my personal favorite games! The story is deep and well whiten, and the characters have great personality. A few bugs get annoying, but nothing to bad. The graphics still look great to this day. I love the perk system! I suggest getting it on Xbox one via backwards compatibility. The best game in the fallout franchise for sure.

    Квесты, в сравнении с первой и второй частями Falllout, убоги. В большинстве из них нет выборов для игрока и они повторяют сами себя.
    Дополнения такие же скучные, как и основная игра, за исключением Point Lookout.
    Вышеупомянутая стрельба такая же, как и в играх серии Call of Duty - НИ-КА-КА-Я (стрелять скучно и несмотря на относительно немалый арсенал, ощущается одинаково, поэтому всю игру я прошёл с Китайским автоматом).
    Музыка, представляющая из себя песни в стиле 50-х годов, неплоха. Эмбиент не раздражает и прекрасно вписывается в игру (Инон Зур полностью заслужил заработанные деньги).
    Интерфейс не отвлекает игрока.
    Управление на клавомыши стандартное (W+ЛКМ=Happines).
    Реиграбельность, несмотря на указанные недостки, присутствует.
    P.S.: рекомендуется игрокам, не ознакомившимся с серией (однако лучше всё-таки сыграть в Fallout: New Vegas, разработанную "отцами" первых двух частей).

    Very interesting story, big map not too full with enemies but also not too empty *cough NEW VEGAS *cough
    On the downside are definitely a lack of weapons, also the sound that the chinese rifle makes tends to get annoying after a while and from my 3 playthroughs that I had, some quests got bugged here and there but no biggie. DLCs are just amazing, especially Mothership Zeta.    10/10

    Fallout 3 is a all-round glitchy and rather boring game, with a weak plot and characters.

The game in itself is plagued with glitches and mistakes that could easily be fixed, but the developers never did. The game is also mistagged, as it is not a RPG seeing it comes up with your character’s backstory for you. However, the game does have some positives. The game controls well and VATS system is great way of adding the original elements from the previous games. Otherwise, Fallout 3 is not a Fallout game and no one should play this game.… Expand

    And even more than the lack of plot depth, the world just did not have the same permanence as Fallouts past.

In Fallout past, that would have guaranteed death on sight. In Fallout 3, it is a temporary annoyance.

    And also, in this new Fallout world, your freedom of action is greatly limited, plus your character variety is badly flawed. In Fallout previous, your attributed determined your skillsets, which determined your approach to the game, from brute force hulk with BIG guns, to the leader of a party through Charisma, Fallout allowed you ultimate freedom to solve your quests. Not Fallout 3. The few skills you have to work with now matter less than the three you actually need to finish the game.

    Yes, the world is huge compared to Fallout previous, but is so EMPTY compared to the previous offerings. It is a wasteland, devoid of the culture that made Fallout special. Plus the way you get sucked into the rushed ending, with no warning that you are in the endgame, left me frustrated that I really had no opportunity to explore the landscape fully.

    Overall, this feels like another game wearing Fallout clothes, and doing it badly. A below average FPS, and a bad RPG, but overall a slap in the face to RPG fans, and another stain on the franchise. Bethesda is absolute trash    … Expand

    Fallout 3 welcomes the Fallout franchise to the world of 3D.
    Here we had not yet seen the revival of interest in the isometric model.
    An awkward conversion, but with the promise of greatness. The classic Fallout RPG mechanics has been adjusted to suit the first person view and action model of a shooter. The step away from turn based, tactical combat too is seen clearly in this new    Fallout 3 welcomes the Fallout franchise to the world of 3D.

    We see a shift in storytelling, where the scope of choice is narrowed down though still present. And the general atmosphere of the game is lighter, with jolly music to keep you company as you run or jump across the wasteland to save the world.

    Still, it is Fallout. If a bit bland.
    Bethesda will take what they learned in this game, and make for us a better RPG in the next, surely.    … Expand

    What do you get when you combine the storytelling and irreverence of Fallout 2 with the jaw-dropping 3D realism of The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion? Not this! But that's okay! It's still one of my top ten games of all time. (And there are only about thirty games in my top ten!)

    I would give it a 7 however after seeing what Fallout has become since Fallout 4 at least I can go back to Fallout 3 and see that there was a time that Bethesda actually put effort into their games. Add the nostalgia factor since this was my first Fallout game I'll give it an 8, because despite the flaws it's still built with love.

    Minor niggles aside, Fallout 3 is almost entirely spectacular. Everything from the graphics, to the sound, to the plot is first-rate. The VATS system worlds like a charm, and it’s so easy to get the hang of, you’ll be cracking skulls like there’s no tomorrow. [Dec 2008, p.55]

    A vast and open world of unimaginable possibilities opens in front of you in Fallout 3. Great story, flawless combat system, and the option to choose your own way makes it a hot candidate for game of the year. [Nov 2008]

    Fallout 3 is one of this year's best games. It's an unforgettable journey that lives up to the series. You are an ex-vault 101 inhabitant, and you discover a whole new world, full of zombies, mutants, raiders, aliens and all kinds of creatures. Welcome to this post-apocaliptic reality, where you are going to spend hundreds of hours.
