IGN.com: Fallout 3 Review

Fallout 3 is a special videogame. It's an open-world role-playing game that delivers an experience unlike anything on the market right now. It's a gripping and expansive showcase of how much depth and excitement can be packed into one videogame, and it does justice to the Fallout franchise. This sequel is the first made by Bethesda, the developers responsible for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. You don't need to play any of their past games or any previous Fallout games to enjoy this one. It stands on its own as a memorable and well-crafted videogame.

I guess game reviewers are all 6 years old then since they all agree that LittleBigPlanet is fantastic.

LBP is gaming in its purest form, simplistic but deep fun, and then goes further by letting you be creative as well and doesn't rely on blood, cursing and moulded plastic armour to sell.

Do we really need this discussion here? I'm fairly sure this is the Fallout review, not LittleBigPlanet.

I might have to check this beezzee out. Sounds like it's going to be solid. Unfortunately I'll probably have to get this on one of the consoles, my PC isn't exactly "high-end".

PirateThom6027d ago

Whoa? Did the embargo just end?

omodis4206027d ago

I can't wait to blow people up tomorrow.

ElementX6027d ago

I preordered the 360 version. Unfortunately my 360 sounds like a jet engine. I wish the PS3 version had trophies out of box, I probably would've bought that version because my PS3 is silent.

Cheeseknight286027d ago

Yeah, I preordered the PC version so I didn't have to listen to my 360's obnoxious drive. Also, I prefer mouse to sticks.

TheColbertinator6027d ago

@Cheeseknight

I agree completely.Fallout games are always best on PC

NegativeCreepWA6027d ago

360 version for me. Bethesda puts out good DLC.

CaptainHowdy6027d ago

i'll get trophies my SECOND time around, when they patch it...'cause i know i'll be playing it over again and again, and again....besides, its a shorter wait for a patch then it is for DLC that has YET to be created yet(dejavu; GTA4 i'm looking at you too). and 100+ hours is enuff to sustain me, at least til the supped up "Oblivion: Game of the Year edition" version rears its head next year.

Si-Pie6026d ago

How old is your 360? The newer 360 drives are alot quieter and I should know as I just traded my 3 year old 360 in for a brand new, one month old 360 and its alot quieter! the older ones were rather loud, however it didn't bother me that much as I always had my surround sound system turned up quite high anyway.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro4d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.

New Vegas and Morrowind should have been first!

Christopher12d ago

Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.

OMGitzThatGuy12d ago

MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it.

Christopher12d ago

***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***

I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.

RaidenBlack11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.

RaidenBlack11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.

FTLmaster12d ago

Got a soft spot for Fallout 3, so I'd be down to play this.

-Foxtrot12d ago

It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.

They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.

neutralgamer199212d ago

Would love a complete remake or sequel with enough resources

Abnor_Mal12d ago

The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.

Yui_Suzumiya11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.

anast12d ago

They are only remaking their games that have been streamlined.
