Product Description
Vault 101 â Jewel of the Wastes. For 200 years, Vault 101 has faithfully served the surviving residents of Washington DC and its environs, now known as the Capital Wasteland.
Manufacturer's Description
The third game in the Fallout series, Fallout 3 is a singleplayer action role-playing game (RPG) set in a post-apocalyptic Washington DC. Combining the horrific insanity of the Cold War era theory of mutually assured destruction gone terribly wrong, with the kitschy naivety of American 1950s nuclear propaganda, Fallout 3 will satisfy both players familiar with the popular first two games in its series as well as those coming to the franchise for the first time.
Welcome to the nation's capital.

The Story: Vault 101 - Jewel of the Wastes
For 200 years, Vault 101 , a fallout shelter, has faithfully served the surviving residents of Washington DC and its environs, now known as the Capital Wasteland. Though the global atomic war of 2077 left the US all but destroyed, the residents of Vault 101 enjoy a life free from the constant stress of the outside world. Giant Insects, Raiders, Slavers, and yes, even Super Mutants are all no match for superior Vault-Tec engineering. Yet one fateful morning, you awake to find that your father has defied the Overseer and left the comfort and security afforded by Vault 101 for reasons unknown. Leaving the only home you've ever known, you emerge from the Vault into the harsh Wasteland sun to search for your father, and the truth.Key Features: - Limitless Freedom! - Take in the sights and sounds of the vast Capital Wasteland!

 WARNING - Game can be full of glitches January 8, 2009
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Be warned this is a great game and many people, including myself love this game. But it is full of glitches that can prevent you from playing the game and enjoying it. They can also be game destroying and in a few isolated cases it has been known to destroy systems. Don't get me wrong it is a great game but please check the official Bethesda Fallout 3 forums for the low-down on what many PS owners a really experiencing.
 Really worth it`s money !!! January 7, 2009
Well, I`m just playing it for about 10 hours, but I can say it`s really worth while spending my time on it. Exciting and enduring fun.
I wished, more action adventures would be like this (creating your character, your skills and your own ending). I`m fed up with those linear ones.
BEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED. January 5, 2009
I have over 20 years gaming experience and i can say this is THE best game i have ever played,The sheer size and complexity is incredible, its so much more than "A game" its a whole new world to explore, Meet people, Trade, Yes its similar to Oblivion, But who cares? I loved that games also!, If you love RPG's or adventure games in general you will love it.I am at 77 hours at the moment, new armour new guns and ready for action! One comment i do have is that there is no online application. Something for the future possibly.
If you're considering this game, Get it.And let me know how you get on once in the waste-lands.I love it,cant recommend it highly enough.10 out of 10.
Vault Raider January 4, 2009
I am new to the Fallout Series but am not new to free roam first person shooters. I was addicted to this game just out of the Vault. I've finished the game twice and there is still an amazing amount of things I haven't attempted yet. Definitely one of the best games I've played for years. Hope that there is an expansion pack soon.Game of the year.. Maybe.5 stars
Mad Max 4?! January 3, 2009
Great game on PS3! A post nuclear 1950s wasteland.. you feel a bit like Mad Max when you meet some of the nasty wastelanders! Good job you've picked up your shotgun, sniper rifle, lead pipe, pulse grenades and other weapons along the way! You emerge from your nuclear fall out, meet the wastelanders.. some good.. some bad. You can go for chit-chat or shoot your way out of situations. Take on tasks.. or not. The game is very open ended if you want - or task driven if you prefer to follow a definite route. Very good game. Great story, great action, some very unique game play. The game is immersive - the more your play the more you get into the environment. Really enjoyed the game - 4 stars comes from the occassional freeze in the game, but not to worry theres automatic saves and the freezes occur very occassionally (reload game in 30 secs and it doesnt appear to refreeze - this happens maybe 3 or four times during the 40+ hours of gameplay!) not an issue really. Lots of different types of people, creatures and robots - perhaps in Fallout 4 we'll get some vehicles too? Brilliant game.
