Well. We all remember (Ok...many of us) the time when the cool view of a game were from top-down. (zelda, etc) And just in time, before that style got killed by half life, this game hit the selfs! A rolepleying game that didn't take itself so seriious. A game that you could do almost anything in. A game were freedom was important and so were style and looks. Many can complain today that this game don't got the best of graphics and sound, but it really does fit to the style of the game. Everything is run down and broken, since the nuclear bombs and all, and it really does fit with as run down graphics. The game features a great amount of ways to kill your enemies. Kill them with the normal Ak47, handguns, swords, etc. Or you could try out broken bottles, bazookas, spiked bats, plasmarifles and molotow coctails. The enemies ain't your kinda typical enemies either. You'll meet zombie like "ghouls" that was born out of all the nuclear waste, and other scary or sick creatures. The game is turned based, so you could use some time on the fights, but that really is just part of the game. You can also team up with people, animals, ghouls, and do on, so it should be no problem to get enough guns. Your first assignemnt is to get the water-chip for your vault. The waterchip is a computerchip that creates water, and the vault is the place were you and your "tribe" has been hiding after the nuclear world war. So. The world is broken. And you, chosen by your tribe, sets out to find a new waterchip, and save their life. The story is really strong and well written, and the sounds really help up on the atmosphere. So if you could forgive the olding graphics, and the fact that the game really is too old for anybody "hip" to play. You just have to go get it. It's really something of the best RPG gaming you will ever experience.
I know that by todays standards people would rather be playing Neverwinter Nights or some "newer" RPG game but Fallout does everything perfectly. The game is limitless trust me on that I've been playing since release and... Read Full Review
This is one of my all-time favorite games. It is a very unique game with a story similar only to the game "Wasteland". At first I was a little skeptical on how this game would be, the graphics (nowadays) ar... Read Full Review
