When I first turned on Fallout and the intro played, I knew I was in for something special. The game looks, beautiful. From my first steps as a child, to running away from the vault, I couldn't be happier.
The game will start off kinda slow, with the first 30 minutes or so taking you from being born to be able to leave the jail(or vault whatever you call it). But once you escape, its where the real game begins. Now, for those of you that normally have your hand held in games and are told exactly what to do, this game isn't for you. In fact, if I didn't know already how to find megaton, I might have wondered in the craziness of the beginning.
Once you pick up some quests, things seem to take there own route. And you completely decide what type of person you are going to be. Currently, I am a goody goody female, who would rather save the entire world than commit one foul act. And it does seem that how you act affects the world. I am constantly getting gifts everytime I pass this one settler in megaton, and there has been a hit put out on me.
There is so much to do in the game, whether its killing people with small guns(my fav) or large missle launchers. Building a weapon, using bombs, sneaking around, picking locked doors. Its all good fun. I highly recommend this to all my GS friends who haven't had a chance to play it. But be warned PS3 users, the only problem I've encountered is when logged onto PSN, if you have alerts on, the game will lock up for several seconds. Its fixed by getting off PSN, or turning off messages, but if you own both systems and you find that to be extremely annoying, grab the 360 version for it is just as good.
