GREAT GAME
To start off, the game has tons of characters, monsters, quests, and the best thing...Weapons!! You can customize your character to follow whatever path of destruction you wish to create.
Fallout also has a great storyline. The only gripe I have is without Broken Steel, the game just ends. However, you can completely stray from the main storyline and do side quests or even just wander around the huge landscape aimlessly. The awesome thing to do is to find all the hidden weapons they have stashed in buildings all around the Wasteland.
I only have 2 cons about the game. 1) No multiplayer 2) It can be buggy. I look over this and give it a ten do to the massive amount of time they spent putting into this game. They cant make everything perfect.
Overall i give it a 10 and recommend it to anybody. For sure worth the money and you have to buy the GOTY edition to lengthen your adventure even more!!!!
