Awesome game

Fallout 3 Game of the Year edition is definitely a very fun game to play. Depending on your choices in the game you can have so many different outcomes to the ending. You can play the main objective only or choose side quest which makes the game last a lot longer. Depending on your choice on how you want to play the play time is pretty extensive, you are not going to finish this game real quick like most other RPG style games I have played.
I have recommended this game to quite a few friends and they too have enjoyed playing this game. Bethesda Softworks makes other games that I also find enjoyable to play such as Oblivion: GOTY Edition which is a lot like Fallout 3 GOTY Edition but with swords and magic. Fallout 3 takes place in a post nuclear war Washington D.C. and you fight all types of enemies using weapons that range from your bare hands to mini nuke launchers. The add-ons that are included with the GOTY Edition take you to different places to give the game a little different feel, not taking place in the D.C. area, such as the Point Lookout add-on takes place close to D.C. area in a swamp with backwoods redneck people trying to kill you and ghouls, even on the easy setting these rednecks are pretty difficult to kill. Compared to the "normal" game this makes it more challenging to play, in the "normal" game the enemies I have been coming across have been fairly easy to dispatch with the weapons I am using.
Only one thing could possibly make this game a little more interesting, online play. This is a single player only game and the friends I have recommended on getting the game and myself wish we could party up to fight and accomplish objectives with each other. I really do not think a massive role playing game would go over big with this game though, just a few friends(2-4 players) getting together to play when they wanted to.
I do not think a person is going to be real upset with this game if they like playing RPG style games. The size of the Fallout 3 world is huge, plenty to explore with a lot of freedom. If you walk from one end of the world to the other end then you have spent plenty of time doing so.
The game is rated "M" for the bad language and possibly some sexually suggestive dialogue, nothing real bad in my opinion if you allow your children to watch PG-13 or more mature rated movies or even TV shows.

For about $50 this is definitely worth the it. On the PSN store the Down Loadable Content(DLC) is worth $10 each which comes to $50 just for the DLC. This game is also visually stunning, I think the graphics on a HDTV look spectacular. 720P is all you would need for this game and I could only imagine if the game would have been done in 1080p what the game would have looked like then.

great game...just a few gliches

I got this for my husband for an early christmas gift. He's been wanting this game for two years. It was very reasonably priced and in excellent condition. He loves the "game of the year version" because it has a bunch of different added quests on it. The only problem is that sometimes the game freezes up but we found out that was a manufacturer problem that sometimes happened with this game. Other than that he loves it and hasn't put it down for a week.Read full review...

A Great Story Supported by Hours of Side Quests & Exploration of the Ruins

I am not generally a fan of first-person shooters. However, the story, expansive world, and side quests make this game truly epic. I spent way too many hours playing this game, and still have not found near all the special weapons, equipment, and quests that are available. One important note: this game is massive and it freezes a lot. You have to save often, or you could lose hours of playing. This doesn't happen much at lower levels, but as your character levels up, and gets more and more stuff, it becomes a significant problem, especially on the DLCs, which come with this version of the game. In other words, save often and you'll love this game!Read full review...

Great immersible, vivid, and deep game. Watch your file size as you progres

Fallout 3 is a fantastic game in itself but in this version you get all 5 DLC included on the disc. If you enjoy RPGs with some deep story and lots of side quests than this game is for you. The VATS system is pretty unique to its genre. Lots of items to sell, buy, repair and trade. It has a bit of a twisted and Dark background but it has some charm. The reason I gave it 4 and not 5 is that longer you play the game the larger the save date is. The larger the save data the slower the game begins to run the further you dive into this massive game. When your file size gets around 7000 kbs is when the problems start happening more often.Read full review...
