tbh ure all just whiney little children this game was, as b. put it , brilliant, it had everything u, or at least i, could want. i thought the story was at least interesting. the side quests were all unique and the only thing which i found repetitive is my obssesstion with locating every single place which i meant i occasionall stumbled into a similar looking house to a previous one i saw, but apart from that wat is there to complain about . how can you say there isnt enough dialogues i litrally spent more than 50 hours on this game and im sorry but if you want to spend more time on games then ure a sad bastard who needs to get out more

I’m also glad to see the exile doing videogames. So do you exile writers think Braid is brilliant or just pretentious sludge? How about Portal? (Although that one may be far too old for a review.)

Well, you can’t kill everyone. As usual in these games, child slaughter is off limits.

“Thank you for this piece of shit, Bethesda scumbags.”

Why do you think the author is from Bethesda? Honestly I am pretty sure no one here could write such an article. Such people simply dont live here, this is the least inspiring place I have ever been to…

Fallout3
1- has no sex scenes: you just _sleep_ with a whore on a same bed, you can’t even hear some groans
2- has shitty music: wtf are orchestral compositions of Ion Zur doing there?!
3- has 1257952532 less dialogues than fallout1&2.

Thank you for this piece of shit, Bethesda scumbags.

The game simply sucks and I rule.

Hey, great review. I love your writing style. You also have some very interesting ideas, and some good things to say about the game itself. I wish you would elaborate. Please be so kind as to provide more details, more insight and relevant notes on your thoughts about the game. Modders and gamers alike will rejoice when the wheels are set into motion along those tracks. Thanks!

The setting is wonderfully realised visually with a great attention to the 1950s-science-gothic detail, but the writing wasn’t quite good enough and the rpgfps-meld didn’t quite work. San Andreas managed it with a better control scheme, hopefully the modder out there will be able to realise the game’s full game play, balance and story potential.

Every now and again, exploring a ruined house you’ll find for example, a skeleton in a bathtub with a radio. Or a skeleton on the ground, with a pistol lying on the ground next to in and a box of ammo on the table. The people didn’t all adapt well to survival in the post apocalyptic wasteland.

It’s touches like that that make me love the game.

I wonder if the reviewer ever encountered the original classics in all their flat-isometric 8-bit color glory?

-Striving through a hellish desert, dealing with all the wackos, twatters, tweeters and the odd philosopher who preach their own inane gospel: a handful of shotgun shells.
-Hitting each and every hooker on the way, spending your wasteland adventures in a perpetual alcohol and drug induced stupor: a big pile of bottle caps.
-Through a prolonged conversation that is both rhetorically and morally challenging forcing the ultimate well intentioned extremist and would be “savior” to pull the plug on his “project”: a shot of amphetamines and whole lot of questing to reveal his story.
-…and having saved the world realizing, all was for ‘naught, ’cause people are really-really *that* nasty, venal and stupid: PRICELESS

i’m glad exile is doing videogames now. after all, it’s becoming a norm in our society, a melding tool for our military to instill violence and war in our future soldiers. it’s relevant. and it’s fun.

anyways, fallout 3 really does fall short in the story/writing side. it’s no black isle/tim cain fallout, the people responsible for FO 1 and 2.

bethesda pretty much watered down anything literary and made it into their own violent sludge of a pudding, to feed it to the short attention spanned children we love to call gHEys over mulitiplayer HALO 3.

now review Call of Duty World at War! Cartman loves the japs in that game.

This is the best review of “Fallout 3″ that I’ve yet read.

Thank you, once again, (the) Exile(d), for bringing some reality to journalism.
