Fallout 3 – Game of the Year Edition

Although this encompassing game was originally released in October of 2008, the Game of the Year edition was released October, 2009. It included all five game add-ons – Operation: Anchorage, The Pitt, Broken Steel, Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta. It has been released on Xbox 360, Playstation 3 Games, and PC Games. Having played through the original release of Fallout 3 this game was a nice change from the typical sword and magic RPG that is rampant in the industry. You are immersed in a post-apocalyptic open war zone that basically leaves everyone fending for themselves.The character customization really wasn’t all that amazing, but you’re still given full control of all your stats. These include main attributes with such things as strength, intelligence, and charisma. Each of these has benefits and can be increased throughout the game depending on your style of play. Along with your main stats you’re also given skills and perks that can be upgraded at each level increase. The skills relate to your healing ability, small guns, big guns, and then also your ability to hack terminals or use the lock pick ability. There are many other skills and can all be increased to 100. These items will also be increased depending on your playing style and the stats of your character. Depending on how you want to increase these stats, Fallout 3 gives me many different ways in which to do so. Perks are also additions to your character that can increase skills, your main attributes, or give you increased damage, more health or armor, or even open up different dialogue choices with those that you encounter.

Throughout the game you’re able to find all kinds of loot, side quests, and interesting characters to interact with. With scenery in some of the wasteland is kind of drab, but usually you’re trying to sneak up on some enemies or possibly shooting them with a mini-nuke from a distance…  which in my opinion adds to the fun of the game instead of making the backgrounds pretty. Overall it’s a fun and challenging game to play. It does have some monotonous quests where you have to go kill a bunch of creatures just to get on the good side of someone else, but finding new and inventive ways to kill them can often be more fun than running in guns-a-blazin! The only other issue I had with the game was with maxing my character out too early. I was still doing some side quests and the game additions when my character maxed out on levels. This made it less exciting since I could no longer gain experience by killing more creatures, but the storyline still kept me interested.

The add-ons for the game add hours of exploration and lots of new weapons/upgrades and interesting characters. The downfall with some of them is you’re transplanted from the location of the main game and brought to an off-site area that you’re unable to leave until completing the new quest. In one of the add-ons they actually grant you an extra ten levels to increase your character even further (including new perks and the ability to increase stats/skills) and also allow further exploration of the wasteland as without this add-on the game ends with your final quest.

Overall it was a fun, immersive game with lots of gun play, quests, and items to interact with. I’d recommend it to anyone interested in the RPG genre.
