Well I have decided to Make some video game reviews on here as I play alot of them, and I know a large population on this forum plays as well.



Game: Fallout 3
Released: October 28,2008
Genre: RPG/Action/First person shooter.
Developer: Bethesda
Rating: M for Mature(requires a liscence to buy in most states)
Platforms: PC, Xbox360, Playstation 3


The Year is 2277, 200 years After the bombs fell across the unit states. You are one man, or woman, against the world in the metro area surrounding Washington DC.

You were Born in Vualt 101 and thats where you will die. Thats what you are told over and over. But a hour after playing you are in this huge world, that it seems everyone is trying to **** you, or at least send you on missions that will get you killed.

If you liked the gameplay of oblivion and the dark scary story of Bioshock you will be in for a great game. This RPG (role playing game) Immerses you into a incredibly deep story. With hours apon hours of gameplay avaible and endless endings.

With the ability to be Evil, neutral , or good the entire story changes and actualy affects your gameplay and missions down the road.

With this game released a week after Fable 2, another RPG game, it casts a huge shadow on the very basic very predictable story line of Fable 2.

Fallout 3 is what a RPG is supposed to be. The actions you take Directly affect you and the story ending you will have. Actions from Minute 1 shape you and what you will experience.

The Dialog is almost endless with 1000s of NPCs. You can skip most of it but there are some very important story lines as well as some hilarous things said by some NPCs that you just wouldnt want to miss.


From Blowing up a city with a nuclear ****, to controlling satilites with the ability to attack ground targets , to looking for Bobblehead dolls, to listing to GNR Radio that plays almost 50s style music the story line, game play, graphics and everything surrounding you ***** you into a very addictive game.


For any major Game player this is a must have game this holiday season.

This game is easily Game of the year.

10 out of 10.


Go out and **** some mutants.

Being a pretty big gamer I bought this. Haven't got it installed yet, but I am really looking foreward to it. I played the other Fallout games and they were awesome. I also liked Oblivion as well so hopefully the two will come together nicely in Fallout 3.

I was thinking about buying Fallout 3. But I'm more into FPS games and MMORPGS!

I'm so excited about World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King coming out next Thursday, November 13th. And I'm highly lucky I'm off the 2 days it comes out. So level 80, here I come! If anybody else that surfs these forums play WoW, I play on Silvermoon, Alliance side. Look me up, Adreneline is my 70's name, got a few other 70s also. Just for you horde lovers, I also have a 70 horde on another server and account (Can't think of the servers name off hand).

I'm also excited about Diablo 3 coming out next year sometime!! w00t w00t! TWO BIG Blizzard cames coming out. *Jumps up and down*

I'm also looking forwards for Starcraft 2 to be released also next year. But not nearly excited as I am for WoW:WotLK and D:3

For you FPS players. I also play Counter Strike: Source, Battlefield:2, Battlefield:2142, Call of Duty:4 and a few others. I have posted this information on anther thread on the forums. But if you play CS:S, add me to steam: OneStylishGuy25 - I'll be more than glad to pwn you at any time, any day, anywhere! :D

There will be upcoming reviews of WotLK CoD World at War, End War and more!

I have 5 lvl 70s.

and lvl 70-80 is supposed to be equivelant to the time it takes to go 1-70. So i doubt 2 days is goin to do much lol

I have heard the same thing about WOTLK, the new achievements have really breathed some life back into the game as well. I have 5 level 70s on 2 different servers so I'll be hooked on WoW for a long time. Need to find the tie to play Fallout 3 though. They made the original into a FPS so it should be interesting.

Yeah but it'll be a challenge to see how many levels I can gain in 2 days. I went from level 60-70 in 3 days :D LOTS of mountain dew and hot pockets were eaten/drunk. LOL

Yeah, I love the achievements. I have heard months ago that they were talking about putting housing facilities and guild halls into WoW:WotLK but I haven't heard much about it. Would be a great idea to do. Hence Guild Wars has Guild Halls and Fable has housing. Wouldn't be bad to put that in WoW!

Fable 2 was a major disapointment to me. The Co-op was destroyed by lionhead.

The game was to predictable. i guess i should write my review for that as well.

That's why I didn't buy it. I could tell by looking at the box and the game reviews I would not like it so I didn't bother buying it.

Same reason I stayed away from Warhammer. And it's a shame too. I was really looking foreward to the release of that game.

Mercs 2 is pretty fun:p

They just released content for cheats and such to use that make it a blast when you beat the game.

Getting in their version of a apache with unlimited ammo, shooting rockets like crazy and leveling towns

I haven't bought Warhammer - I heard that game ****** majorly! I have Age of Conan. first 20 levels is boring. I canceled my subscription. Graphics are great! Game play is great, combat setup is also great. It's just boring. To much talking.

I'm still hooked on Star Wars Galaxies. They are getting ready to add Hoth to the game.

I might jump on it after some updates and if GoGamer.com has a special price on it. (they usually do within a month of most new games.) I tried Fallout2 back in the day when I was a kid and I didn't get hooked at all and dropped it after less than an hour.

I am a big RPG fan however. Unfortunately Bethesda is the last in straightup RPG makes out there. BioWare, the other big player, was recently swallowed up by EA.

I am playin Command and Conquer Red Alert 3 lately. The campaign story is corny, but its intention is to be corny and fun. It also contains a lot of babes. Its nothing revolutionary, but it is fun and looks great visually.

OH! Another great game is BioShock! That little girl in that game is scarier than the monsters in that game. It's just the way she sounds and talks....*PURE EVIL*
