The GOTY is great because it includes all of the expansion content and original content in one package. The main story is a little short, but is doesn't matter because there is so much other stuff to do. The main campaign can probably be rushed through in 5-7 hours but the entire experience is immersive and addicting.

The world looks beautiful and there is a fair variety of creatures you will find in your adventures. The game has a fun crafting system which lets you create some very fun guns you will not have seen in any other game. Some of these weapons include a rifle that launches rail road spikes and pins limbs to walls, and a dart gun which can tranquilize your enemies. All are created with various junk you will find scattered across the world.

The acting is good and the people seem somewhat real. There are major decisions you must make, and they will seriously have you thinking about the morality of your actions. Another thing which makes the world interesting and immersive is that bodies of dead enemies seem to stay around forever, making it feel like your actions really do shape the world around you.

One complaint is that the game does seem to have frame rate issues which can be kind of frustrating. The game will also freeze in a few places, but its a small price to pay for one of the best RPGS on the 360
