I can't believe I didn't like this game.

About a 1-2 years ago my brother really wanted this game called Fallout 3. I had never heard of this game. However after some research, I thought it looked awesome. So, we bought it. My brother played it an entire day, stayed up all that night and played it, then the rest of the next day and finally beat it.
I then started playing it. I thought it was a lot of fun, but I started over twice because I didn't like my stats or looks in game. On the next start I was satisfied. Not to far later in the game (if you've played it heading to Galaxy News Radio) I found myself with two enemies (Super Mutants) in front of me and out of ammo in all my guns! (My reaction ) I then got so pis*ed off with the game, I didn't play it for about a year.
Now today, with my video game knowledge increased and strategic thinking increased, I am noticing the full potential of the game. The graphics are AMAZING! Open spoiler for image.

 

I mean look at that awesome

The combat is great, the realism is very detailed, the story is awesome, and the game is just all around greatness.This is definitely one of my favorite games of all time now.

If you want a fairly cheap new xbox 360 game, look no further. Buy Fallout 3!
You wont regret it, trust me. (Or Oblivion or Skyrim when it comes out)

Well it's depening also what kind of game you like, if you like fantasy RPG game this is not for you.
I tried Fallout New Vegas, but never can actually get stuck into that game.

I liked Fallout 3 over Oblivion (not to be hating on Elder Scrolls fans, just after Fallout 3. Skyrms gonna wipe Fallout out) because it was not only a RPG and Fictional, but it was more relatable. I mean, can you feel more attuned with a dude w/ a big Missle Launcher or a Lizard firing volley after volley of Arrows?

Actually, I can't really say which I like better when I come to think of it. Oblivion I borrowed, so didn't really play it to full extent. However, before I liked Fallout 3 I liked Oblivion more. I can't say which I like more not being able to play both.

Oblivion and the Newer Fallout's are VERY simular.

It's more of a personal taste, but both games are really great. If you liked Fallout 3, try Fallout New Vegas, Elders Scrolls IV : Oblivion or the new Elders Scrolls V :Skrym, coming out in November.
