Fallout 3 - Opinions

Marshall shares his views of Fallout 3 for The Nerd Cabinet

"I remember when this game was released back in 2008. I got home from school, went on Xbox Live and saw a numerous amount of friends playing it, questioning myself what the game was I looked at it online and shortly after travelled to Blockbuster and rented it. "

I also LOVED Fallout 3, I rented it aswel, only because I didnt really know what I was walking into, I saw a few gameplay videos etc. It looked alright, bit shabby

I honestly think it was because of the controversy there was surrounding the game, "ultra violence" being the word

But now ive played it, I can say theres more to the game than just violence, I remember a quest where you go to this small town and theres slaves walking around wearing bomb collars, this one dude runs for his life and his head goes pop, lol, If I remember you have to save these children for a town ran by children, very funny/original, I love the humour and random events

Fallout Vegas was "ok" didnt seem as big as Fallout 3, I cant wait for Fallout 4, Its gotta be a next gen title

I was so excited when this game came out. I played/loved the first 2 on PC.
My Wife an I had just bought our house in September of 2008, and after weeks of cleaning/painting/moving in -- when this came out in the end of October, I couldn't wait to just sit down on my couch, relax, and explore the wasteland. Sadly, my PS3 would get the YLOD 2 months later and I wouldn't get to finish/100% the game until a few months after that.

Truth be told, I enjoyed "New Vegas" more, though. It felt more like a true predecessor to Fallout 1 & 2.

Still playing it and about ready to play the dlc for the first time. It's the only game that I've had since release and haven't traded in.

I'm currently playing the GoTY version. I have 2 dlc packs to beat before I finish the last mission.

One of the better games out there despite the occassional in game hiccups/freezing

I have fallout new vegas ultimate edition next in line.

Fallout 3 was good, and I was waiting for it forever.. but still New Vegas for me was the best, since it had classic fallout atmosphere, and those amazing deserts and Las Vegas... just great..

[Lighter9]

My opinion is it was a great game, yet it still freezes on me. I had to restart my system several times because it kept freezing as I was going up to Mothership Zeta.

Fallout 3 was good, I had a lot of fun with it, but there were obvious flaws, many of which were fixed, or at least improved upon in FO:NV.

I still have the tin can lunchbox from the special edition lying around here somewhere as well...

F3 was one of the best games of this gen.
