Product Description
Fallout 3 Vault 101, 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. 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.

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.

 DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU HAVE WIN 7 September 4, 2010
Marc (USA)
A simple google search of "Fallout 3 Windows 7" would have saved the the trouble of wasting my money on this game. There are many, many people who have gone to great lengths to make this game work with Windows 7. Many people, but not the maker of the game. If you go to the Bethesda support page there is nothing under Windows 7 support. As much as I would love to try the game, I cannot. It will not work on my system.
Dont get with arrow media September 3, 2010
Pelton N. Jones (Maryland)
First of all I got one day shipping and when I looked at my orders it was coming a week later when I tried to cancel my order it said that it was being prepared and couldntbe cancelled
Overall Id say that one of the big things for me when ordering online is if it comes soon I dont like waiting It annoys me to no end, Im not saying anything about the game because i didnt get it yet but the shippers SUCK THAT IS ALL

Great game, but if you have the choice, go with the Game of the Year Edition. You'll want the expansions, and they cost $9.99 a pop to download. For a few bucks more you get all you need.
Awesome August 30, 2010

Love this game. Has soo much to do and you will play for hours. Starts off kind of slow but once picked up its awesome

knittingen (Dallas, ya'll.)
Truly a masterpiece.
What can I say? As an RPG fan, I spent 70 hours on FF7 back in the day, until there was nothing else to do but beat the Emerald weapon. Once that was done I was disappointed it was over.
This is the game that keeps on giving. I've been on it over 150 hours and still haven't done everything there is to do. I have two of the expansion packs by the way.
It's a gritty, dirty looking game with pretty nice graphics, if that makes any sense. It's totally addicting in my opinion and I've spent 12 hours on it in a day before.
For me to write a huge review about all the things I love about this game would be far to time consuming to write and read. For me to list just some of the things I like about it would be a crime. If you like expansive, epic RPGs, travelling along a map freely, and doing missions as you please... You will love it too.
It's a must, must, must buy. Best game I ever played.
