Fallout

Fallout 3 is the latest addition to the Fallout series and was developed by Bethesda Game Studios, the same guys who made the Elder Scrolls series. The setting of Fallout 3 will take place in the year 2277, 36 years after the setting of Fallout 2and 200 years after the nuclear war that devastated the game’s world.

The game starts out relatively slow as you experience your birth, childhood, and adolescence in Vault 101, which was built to protect its occupants from a nuclear holocaust.  You eventually leave the vault and venture into the wasteland outside.

I was quickly overwhelmed by the vastness and detail of the map- it’s absolutely unbelievable how realistic the environment for the game is.  The gameplay and “feel” of the game very closely parallels Oblivion 4, although the setting and plot are very different.

Life in the vault is just so happy….

The game has a very “gritty” feel to it and the developers do a great job of making you feel apart of the game.  To view your stats, items, maps, and missions, you use the PIP Boy 3000, which is a retro-looking computer that greatly adds to the immersive element of the game.  Visually, Bethesda is doing some really great things with Fallout 3.  I’m sure that this title will become quickly popular after it’s released, despite all the other great title coming out for the holiday season on the 360.

The environments are simply beautiful in a sort of desolate way.

Although I’m still playing my way through the game, Fallout 3 is impressive all around- it’s by far one of the best games I’ve played for the 360.  Score a copy of Fallout 3- it’s definitely a great game!
