Not only that, but it's Vault-Tec approved!

I like the mission where you put exploding collars on people

wasn't Fallout 3 just Oblivion with guns?

And way better

wasn't Fallout 3 just Oblivion with guns?

Pretty much. Fallout 3 is generally considered to be on of the worst of the series by hardcore fans. I don't particularly like it, either. Because it was made by Beth it was somewhat different from 1&2/New Vegas, and as such isn't liked as much. It's story line's pretty weak, plus it has level-scaling like Oblivion, so it hasn't got much going for it.

Never played it

Can you vid me an example?

There's loads of let's plays of NV and 3, although I can't recommend any, because I've never really watched them.

Here's a New Vegas montage to give you an idea of the gameplay:



Fallout 3 uses the same engine and has pretty similar gameplay.


This is a demo of Fallout 2, which is very different from 3 and NV.

I have friends who really loved New Vegas, but I don't know anything about Fallout 3.

It's much more open-ended than the others, so if that's your bag I'd definitely recommend it.

I never got into Fallout 3, I've never really been into open-ended games, they tend to bore me.
