Introduction

In the mid to late 90s I enjoyed the first two games of the Fallout series; they are still permanently etched in my mind and in my opinion are rated amongst the top ever produced.

Interplay (the company that produced/published these games) went under some time after leaving the status of Fallout 3 in jeopardy. Over the past few years I have regularly read No Mutants Allowed hoping for good news about my cherished game. Eventually Bethesda came along and bought the rights to the game and whether we like it or not they produced Fallout 3.

I’ve been waiting for Fallout 3 since 1998, That’s 11 years of waiting. So I’ve taken my time to finish the game and explored practically every part of the game possible. I spent over 56 hours and saved more than 1030 times over the past 6 months exploring as much as possible in the game and I feel that I have finally made up my mind about the game.

This review comes from someone who has finished the game, so expect a few spoilers. This isn’t a concise review in that I haven’t chosen to analyze absolutely every single part of the game.
