Product Description
Fallout 3 X360
Amazon.com
The third game in the Fallout series, Fallout 3 is a singleplayer action role-playing game (RPG) set in a post-apocalyptic Washington DC. Combining the horrific insanity of the Cold War era theory of mutually assured destruction gone terribly wrong, with the kitschy naivety of American 1950s nuclear propaganda, Fallout 3 will satisfy both players familiar with the popular first two games in its series as well as those coming to the franchise for the first time.
Welcome to the nation's capital.

The Story: Vault 101 - Jewel of the Wastes
For 200 years, Vault 101 , a fallout shelter, has faithfully served the surviving residents of Washington DC and its environs, now known as the Capital Wasteland. Though the global atomic war of 2077 left the US all but destroyed, the residents of Vault 101 enjoy a life free from the constant stress of the outside world. Giant Insects, Raiders, Slavers, and yes, even Super Mutants are all no match for superior Vault-Tec engineering. Yet one fateful morning, you awake to find that your father has defied the Overseer and left the comfort and security afforded by Vault 101 for reasons unknown. Leaving the only home you've ever known, you emerge from the Vault into the harsh Wasteland sun to search for your father, and the truth.Key Features:- Limitless Freedom! - Take in the sights and sounds of the vast Capital Wasteland! See the great monuments of the United States lying in post-apocalyptic ruin! You make the choices that define you and change the world. Just keep an eye on your Rad Meter!
- Experience S.P.E.C.I.A.L.! - Vault-Tec engineers bring you the latest in human ability simulation - the SPECIAL Character System! Utilizing new breakthroughs in points-based ability representation, SPECIAL affords unlimited customization of your character. Also included are dozens of unique skills and perks to choose from, each with a dazzling variety of effects!
- Fantastic New Views! - The wizards at Vault-Tec have done it again! No longer constrained to just one view, experience the world from 1st or 3rd person perspective. Customize your view with the touch of a button!
- The Power of Choice! - Feeling like a dastardly villain today, or a Good Samaritan? Pick a side or walk the line, as every situation can be dealt with in many different ways. Talk out your problems in a civilized fashion, or just flash your Plasma Rifle.
- Blast 'Em Away With V.A.T.S.! -Even the odds in combat with the Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System for your Pip-Boy Model 3000! V.A.T.S. allows you to pause time in combat, target specific body parts on your target, queue up attacks, and let Vault-Tec take out your aggression for you. Rain death and destruction in an all-new cinematic presentation featuring gory dismemberments and spectacular explosions.
- Mind-Blowing Artificial Intelligence! - At Vault-Tec, we realize that the key to reviving civilization after a global nuclear war is people. Our best minds pooled their efforts to produce an advanced version of Radiant AI, America's First Choice in Human Interaction Simulation. Facial expressions, gestures, unique dialog, and lifelike behavior are brought together with stunning results by the latest in Vault-Tec technology.
- Eye-Popping Prettiness! - Witness the harsh realities of nuclear fallout rendered like never before in modern super-deluxe HD graphics. From the barren Wasteland, to the danger-filled offices and metro tunnels of DC, to the hideous rotten flesh of a mutant's face.

I was really looking forward to this game, man what a bummer. Now I know I'm in the minority here but it's my take on this game and here it goes.
Well, so far I've put in at least 6 hours...6 hours of agonizing bordom! I just don't get what all the "hype" is about. It's almost as if you have to like this game or you're not "cool" by the way people talk about it. Guess I'm not cool, I freakin hate this game.
I actually restarted the game to go ith my lowered my expectations and see if I could bare through it. No go.
The pace is so slloowwwww. My god people, how the hell can you deal with this? I would much rather read a good book than play this, it's far more exciting and stimulating.
The graphics are just so-so, nothing great here. The animations pretty much blow, pretty clunky to say the least. AI isn't the greatest either. And it's so wordy, like I said, if I'm gonna spend hours reading I would rather read a book.
Maybe I'm just spoiled when it comes to RPGs having an uber gaming computer and having played some pretty amazing RPGs.
The break down of this game is as follows.
49% Talking
49% Traveling
2% Action/picking up trash
I'm so glad I got it used, I would really be ticked if I wasted $60 on this.
You've been warned.
 simply amazing November 12, 2009
Video Game Addicted (Brooklyn OH)
through my many years of gaming ive never liked first person shooter (with very few exceptions) and ive only been a so-so fan of RPG's. This game combines both elements flawlessly. The only thing i could say bad about it is that it is very addictive. You will say you will only play for an hour before you go to sleep, and then you will look at the clock and see its 4 in the morning. This game has a pretty compelling story, which keeps you playing. One of the only other games that combines these aspects as well is half-life. So if you want to go on a uniqe and exciting experiance i reccomend you buy this game.
 You can join the brotherhood of steel. Why not the Enclave? November 12, 2009
Andrew Jackson
All in all, this is probably the best game I have ever played. However, I was disappointed that you could work with the Brotherhood of Steel, but not the Enclave. This game is all about the choices you make. You should be allowed to choose which side you are on instead of being forced to side with the Brotherhood of Steel if you want to finish the story.
I understand that they are making a game called Fallout: New Vegas. Bethsheda, PLEASE allow us to join the Enclave.
A horrible future makes for a great game. November 4, 2009

This game was not what i was thinking it was gonna be from looking at the backcover but it turned out to be a great game.It is one of thoes games were you have to stick to the mad or you'll get loss and say "what do i do know".But apart from that it's realy fun,there are a lot of things to be done in the game so even if you beat it you can still go back.
