Partial redundancy shake fist at BN edition.
Radioactive Culture blog, 8.9/10.<blockquote>Fallout 3 never did turn out to a game that I wanted it to be. All of the elements that made Fallout my favorite game were eschewed by Bethesda. The turn-based combat, the epic storyline and the isometric view are all gone. Admittedly, I didn't expect Bethesda to deliver such a game either. I thought the franchise was going to be massacred, turning Fallout into a game like Oblivion but only with guns. For the most part, it did felt like an Elder Scrolls game. But that's because Bethesda's expertise lies in such games, and I'm glad that stuck with what they know instead of capitulating to what the gamers want.</blockquote>Spot’s Speck of the Internet blog.<blockquote>Questing/Storyline in the game is incredible. They did a fantastic job creating such a depressing world where everyone is literally scraping by to make a living. As with any free-form RPG, you have the ability to choose whether you wish to be someone of a good nature, someone of an evil nature, or a middle of the road kind of person. You come across someone who asks for a bottle of purified water, you can give it to them to save their life, you can leave them alone to scavenge on their own, or you can just pull your gun/knife/fists and kill him. The possibilities are endless. One thing that I really enjoyed was the fact that they did a great job of threading your decisions into a huge end game. While there are 6 major endings, with the possibilities that you can do throughout the game, there are 100+ endings.</blockquote>Pigeon blog, 10/10.<blockquote>This game comes highly recommended by myself and by everyone ive spoken to about it! The only bad word I can say about it is that it did eventually come to an end!
The Game is yet another piece of Bethesda magnificence, these guys can do it all! From Oblivion’s swords and horses, to Fallout 3’s Guns and Ghouls! Bring on The Fallout 4</blockquote>Game Positive, 9.5.<blockquote>If you're a fan of one of the originals, if the idea of an epic post-apocalyptic role-playing game interests you, or if you want to try something new and engrossing, Fallout 3 is a winner. The things that Bethesda did so well in Oblivion are again the strengths of Fallout.
The star of Fallout, of course, is the world, the characters, and the stories - all features that any type of gamer will appreciate long after the game is over. Many of the side quests in Fallout 3 had more depth and emotion than most of this year's big titles had in their main plot line. Much of the credit for the game's impact goes to the writers as well as the impressive voice acting - and not just the big name actors like Liam Neeson and Malcolm MacDowell, but the seemingly endless field of talent that populated the Capital Wasteland.</blockquote>zMogo Tech Blog.<blockquote>Overall, Fallout 3 is a game that delivers whether you’re a fan of the series or not. But if you are, you won’t be disappointed.</blockquote>BIGsheep's Space blog, 10/10.<blockquote>Whilst combat may still be a work in progress (although a step up from Oblivion), Fallout 3 is ultimately an immersive world where it is possible to lose yourself for hours upon hours. Drawn in by tales of survival and the vast map just begging for exploration, the goodies that lie at the bottom of long abandoned vaults and the search for your missing father, there is so much to do it is hard to see a better value game this year.</blockquote>
