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. Review: Brilliant and beautiful, yet buggy - I know Fallout 3 came out almost 4 years ago, followed by the GOTY Edition, but I purchased it recently to see why it is highly rated. I will avoid spoiling the story for those who have not played the game by going in into big details. But, to summarise in a nutshell, the game focuses on your character, that has lived in the comfort and security of the *Vault* since birth, suddenly leaving after his/her father to the outside world which is a post atomic/apocolyptic wasteland, in order to chase him up. The rest is up to you to find out. The game is absolutely brilliant in terms of what it offers, it is massive in size and there are so many in-game locations to discover and visit that have a story (sometimes freaky) to explore and discover. You will spend hours upon hours trying to play through all the missions (especially if you are a trophy hunter like myself) and going back and forth between locations, which has been made easy thanks to the fast-travel feature. It does start off a bit slow and the graphics at the beginning are not that pretty but once you get through the first part, things start looking better. I like how you can alternate between first-person and third-person view to suit your individual taste. I prefer the third-person perspective and panning the camera in so it is just behind my characters right shoulder (reminiscent of the camera angle in Resident Evil 4). The unique VATS aiming system is quite clever yet albeit slightly frustrating at times (some shots which should easily hit target still end up missing!). However, the results are also quite gruesome yet fun to watch most of the times, considering how an enemys head may fly off in a violent eruption of blood and gore, or get blown to tiny chunks of blood and bone! Even limbs will fly off at death, if shot at! its also impressive considering how many lines of script have been included as non-playable characters say many different things making the game a very real experience. However, on a negative side, there are numerous tech issues which quite honestly should not have been in the GOTY version. You will experience numerous game freezing incidents and crashes throughout the campaign requiring to reset your system. Sometimes when you aim manually you will find bullets going through an enemy head and not harming them - silly to be honest. Also, there is a bug which Bethesda should have fixed with a patch which is potentially GAME-BREAKING!! (thankfully I found a way through after spending time online looking for a solution - thanks Youtube!). The bug involved unlocking a door in Vault 112 with a key which was practically NON-EXISTANT in the game! If you get into a similar position as me, look for *fallout 3 vault 12 failsafe code* video on Youtube, to stand a chance! Just remember to make regular save files for backup, in case things go wrong!!! Despite these issues, I really have enjoyed Fallout 3 from what I have played so far. I strongly recommend it to all gamers who have not played it. For a 2008 game its brilliant yet four years later (as of today) it is still a gem to play! The positive points easily outweigh the negative points. Bethesda has managed to create such a surreal yet realistic experience with Fallout 3 and as a result it is one of the best games you will play.

Highly Recommended - 92/100 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Magnificent Game *by N***C on 25 February 2026* What A Game ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good solid RPG *by F***N on 31 May 2013* This four year old game has been reviewed extensively so in keeping with my other RPG reviews, I'm going to try and give a female gamer perspective on it. First of all, if you have the choice, get the xbox version. I've played both and the xbox version runs better and crashes less often. It's particularly noticeable when you're high level and are working through the DLC. So you want to be a post-apocalyptic gun toting bad-ass chick? This game is definitely worth a look. There are quests for heros, quests for dubious canabalistic vampire types and you can even join up with the slavers. The engine keeps track of all this with a karma system. There are NPC followers who will only join you if your karma is good, bad or neutral. Even the house you get depends on whether you choose to help a town, or blow it up. In that sense, I find this game less constraining than FO:NV where factions will quickly hate you if you kill a few of them, even if you left no witnesses (some sort of unexplained magic I guess - which is a whole other rant about developers making up rules that have no basis in the game world they've created). So lets look at a few specifics. Character? Alright, considering the age of the game. Female protagonist is an option and she can have wild purple hair if you like. Armour comes in varying degrees of flattery from Raider Painspike, which seems to involve a bra made out of colanders, to full power armour that makes you look like a genderless robot. None of it can be improved beyond it's maximum armour value which means if you fancy wearing raider armour as a higher level character, you might need to turn the difficulty setting down a notch. Romance? No. Followers? Renegades get a follower earlier than heros, unless you know exactly where to go to get Dogmeat. They're fairly basic but solid on the whole. With the Broken steel add-on that comes with this edition, two of them become virtually indestructible which forced me to turn up the difficulty setting to maximum when I was a high level character. Loot and inventory? Fairly good and intuitive. I'm not much of an FPS fan, so this game has more than enough choice of weapons and armour for me. All of it needs to be maintained which with your repair skill you can do yourself, or pay some NPCs to do it for you. Big guns are plentiful and look really cool in third person mode one-on-one with a Deathclaw. Combat? First person with the option to zoom out to third person. In my experience, the third person perspective only works well with VATS (the computer targeting system) or with melee weapons. Third person is more playable in FO:NV. So you can either aim and shoot, or drop into VATS and pick your targets while the game is effectively paused. DLC? Mixed bag. I couldn't finish Operation Anchorage because I kept drifting off. I can imagine the design meeting: 'what this roleplaying game needs is a first-person shooter DLC'. No, it didn't. It needed DLC with a good storyline. Mothership Zeta. Framerate all over the place and the story wasn't good enough to compensate. Again, didn't finish it. Point Lookout. Fallout 3 gets a few tribes and some freaky inbred hillbillies. It's a lot better than it sounds. It also has some intriguing side-quests, discoverables and the gaming equivalent of an acid trip. Arguably one of the best of the DLCs because you get a whole new Island to explore. The Pitt. A dark journey into a world of slavery. The story is alright but a bit linear and the quest markers are even more dodgy than usual. Very satisfying slaughter match at the end with evil NPCs that needed to DIE! Broken Steel: I hardly think of this as DLC because it continues seamlessly from the end of the main quest. Good loot, reasonable climax, new places to explore, but really, Sarah Lyons should have been available as a follower. So all in all, not bad for a four year old game although it would have been nice to be able to join a raider gang or something. Sure you can join the slavers but the leader is ugly, has a heart shaped velvet bed and a female sex slave. Not my kind of gang. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fallout 3 - Game Of The Year Edition (PS3) - Fallout: New Vegas-Ultimate Edition --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/52669114-fallout-3-game-of-the-year-edition-ps3](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/52669114-fallout-3-game-of-the-year-edition-ps3) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-08-02*
