This is really great game. Game play is really good. I love games like this before you have more freedom to choose what character you want to be good or bad. And with hundreds of places to go, including thousands of weapons and items to choose from. Nothing you can asked for. Great graphics as well with 4 GB graphic card Ndivia GTX 1050ti I'm using on my gaming PC plays like a charm. Great hd sounds from the graphic card as well. But you might have some issue for installing this game. Xlive.dll files are not included with game which is surprising to me. You must go online install Windows live to get the Xlive.dll file to game to play with your PC. Which I did not get with the disc. That's the only catch. Other than that it's play well with best OS Top of the line in the market Windows 10 Enterprise software version 1903. I can't wait to get the fallout 76 I'm a big fan of fallout games. I highly recommend this game if looking for survival gaming.Read full review

Well now the price is even lower but it was ok then... the only thing (if I remember right it was the disc inside was that had come out of the case button !! ... Overall I think it's a nice game.. ..I had played first, downloaded from the internet and finally I liked it and bought it (the original copy) to add it in my collection..! Anyhow I never ever played the mods of the game.. ..I 'll play it some other time I suppose..!

I really enjoy Fallout. I played Fallout New Vegas first, now I am playing Fallout 3. I just wish that I had a newer computer, if I have one, I would play Fallout 4. For all you young game players out there, I just want you all to know that some of us old folks like these types of video games too, I am 72 years old.

So many ups for this game warranting the five stars. One thing which I should have paid attention to was comparability issues. Fortunately I have an older PC with XP so was able to load to that one. CRC error messages when trying to install multiple times on my Win 7 machine. At least it'll be something I can play to pass the time waiting for Fallout 4 in November :)

Fallout 3 is a truly great game and stands the test of time. Now that you can get the GOTY edition which features all the add-ons, this is a must have, and the price is so low! This the PC version. I also suggest you get the Prima Guide for the tips in character building.

This game is so awesome that when I bought it on the XBOX 360 I knew I had to get it for the PC. I like playing on the PC so I can use mods and cheats. This game is so much fun. One side note though. I bought this game and put it on my PC that has Windows 7. Everything went fine until I tried starting a new game. After a few seconds of loading it would crash. I read through forums and threads and everything I could think of to fix it. What finally worked for me was watching a Youtube video about this problem. In the video (which linked me to a second video) they directed you to a link which downloaded this file. You were then to take the file and place it in your Fallout 3 folder (they explain the specifics in the video). This fixed my problem. Even with the technical problem this game is awesome and totally worth the struggle. The Game Of The Year version has the expansion packs and it just makes it an overall fun game.Read full review
I decided to buy this edition despite already owning the original game because it included all five of the DLC expansions. Individually, these are 9.99, so I figured if I could get all five for thirty dollars or less I would come out ahead. The Fallout world is a familiar one to me. I own the previous entries and it only a question of when I would explore the Capital Wasteland, not if. I viewed the release with great anticipation. I was not disappointed. While the game plays somewhat differently than prior versions, due largely to the first-person POV, it is equally fascinating. The post-apocalyptic setting allows for a sense of familiarity mixed with discovery, and the alternate history divergence of the Fallout world from our own history sometime in the early fifties means that a game set two hundred years in the future actually feel nostalgic. Fallout gameplay is as much a hybrid as the setting. While owing heavily to RPG's, there is also an element of FPS and even the old-school adventure games. While you certainly can blast away with your weaponry, often the most rewarding path to an objective involves diplomacy or the ability to connect with your inner child. Even sex appeal is accounted for in the game. The game also retains the franchises traditional choices regarding good and evil. In short, Bethesda did their best to take the old games to the next level, making them more complicated, immersive and challenging due to the advances in the platform on which they are played. They succeeded. Fallout is a worthy addition to the franchise as well as an addictive game in its own right. Buy the Game of the Year edition in order to take trips to Pittsburgh, Maryland and even Alaska (no Sarah Palin cameos) in addition to the vast wastelands surrounding what was once Washington D.C.Read full review
If you're a fan of exploration, shooters that aren't just about blowing the heads off of baddies, and being able to choose the outcome of your actions in a game, then Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition is a game that you cannot afford to miss playing. Set in post-apocalyptic America, you escape a locked fallout shelter community in search of your father, who left without warning. The world that awaits you is nothing like your isolated underground home, however. The Capital Wasteland, the war-torn Washington D.C. area, is full of danger. Though humanity continues to thrive, the constant threats have caused many to lose their morality. Sadistic Raiders loot, pillage, and murder, and slavery has become a lucrative business. Radiation still emanates from bombing sites and nuclear waste, causing both humans and animals alike to change. In this world, you must salvage weaponry, ammunition, and use your wits, skills, and your morals (or lack thereof) to shape your character's journey. The choices you make have many outcomes, and with it, rewards. With over a hundred different discoverable locations, this game will appeal to anyone who loves to not just zip through a game, but stop and smell the roses. Many rare and valuable items can be found in old buildings, as well as evidence of what happened to those who lived and died there. For instance, in a pre-war Pittsburgh factory, you find evidence of a hostile revolt against a factory manager after robots were introduced as replacements for human labor. In an old car factory and showroom, you encounter an ant colony that has taken over the place and now calls it home. These are just two examples of what exploring can find, and it really adds to the game's atmosphere and overall story. One warning to potential buyers... This game is perhaps the most violent game that has ever been created. By shooting specific body parts, an arm, leg, or even head can be blown off in an explosion of blood. This is necessary, as this game tries to bring a certain degree of realism. When dealing with real weaponry, you get real consequences. The ability to choose to kill civilians almost resulted in the banning of Fallout 3 in Japan. This game has a strong focus on morality, so it is your choice whether or not be as just and fair as possible, or be a blight upon humanity. Keep this in mind. In contrast to the original version of Fallout 3, the Game of the Year edition has more content, more weapons, more items, and many additional hours of game-play. The most important difference of all is that the game DOES NOT END once the main quest-line is completed. Instead another main quest is introduced, and the game continues open-endedly. This is a huge improvement, seeing that most players aren't even close to finishing all side-quests and exploring all locations by the end of the main quest-line. Overall, this game is incredible. The amount of realism in this game is spectacular, and the game universe is full of details that make the experience one that cannot be missed. If you aren't disturbed by blood and gore, this game will be enjoyable. It's one of my favorite games and intelligent enough to keep the attention of a smarter gamer.Read full review
