I bought this about 9 years ago, and I still come back to it every year or so. Most of the new video and computer games these days don't go into so much detail with your character as this game does - from your skills and abilities, right down to how people react to you based on your appearance. I'm on my 6th or 7th time playing through the game right now, and I'm still discovering new things here and there. Sure it may not have the greatest graphics nowadays and there may be the odd glitch to two, but that's a small price to pay for the elaborate interactions the player will have with the many people and things in the wastes.

Very late here, but just wanna say I like it too. Though I have many other fav games these days (Hello Neighbor from Apknite, Super Mario Run, etc.), it still is irreplaceable in my heart.
Ten and a half years necro.... It must be a record on GOG.com.

The spam bot appears to be getting smarter. The Arcanum review it responded to (about the same vintage) didn't even sound like it came from a human.
I remember really long nights playing this game and how slack-jawed I was at the time as myself, Charon and Dogmeat were the true kings of the wasteland. The more I leveled up towards the end of the game, the more it seemed that Charon and Dogmeat played in God-like mode, they were absolute freaks!

Ah, so many good memories of Dogmeat being 'launched' into the air from my mini-nukes, and he would just brush it off with that stupid grin of his! We were a three man wrecking crew of Biblical proportions = lol! I could almost hear the Deathclaws thinking "Ah shit, it's these guys again - run for the hills"!


I actually preferred the world of FO3 much more than New Vegas, but New Vegas did have better gameplay features and roleplaying. They're both stellar games in the end.
I played it first on the Playstation 3. TO be honest i had abaout 7 runs and 600+ hours on the console.
Fallout 3 had compared to NV and 4 his own VIBE. The ghouls and mutants were really scary and the Underground levels had S.T.A.L.K.E:R Vibes. This game is just one of my most layed and loved games of all time :)
I hope they make a remastered for it :)
Glad to see the spambot necro is still alive, now attracting FO3 players who seem to think the OP is about that game (hint: 2008-9 = 1999, well before FO3 was excreted). Given that katychoui just repeated part of the OP's review text, I assume that's the spam bot again (you know, the one that originally replied to this Fallout review). I'm not sure what its purpose is.

Actually, I wonder how this spambot managed to reply to a review at all, especially on a game that is no longer carried by gog (given the age and the fact that I can't find the review, I assume it's for the Interplay/non-Bethesda Fallout 1 or 2). I'm guessing they know the magic URL to invoke the "comment on review" button, since I don't see it in the interface (probably a feature that was dropped long ago).
