SI drops nukes on Fallout three.

The Raview

Y’know, I find that in the event of a nuclear war I’d commit suicide before actually trying to fly a plane and destroy a fellow country. Fallout three allows you to do just that without the death.

You play as a nameless, faceless, genderless guy before filling in a job application form right after your mother dumps you into a world full of (get ready kids and JCM…) jackasses, and taking advantage of this I gave my character green hair and called him Batman. My father then proceded to say “that’s a beautiful name” and I suddenly lost a eighteen years of my life like something out of “Click” and killed the president of the Chislehurst caves.

My main two flaws with the game are one: it’s really just Oblivion but a million years in the future and less fun. Two: once you’ve blew up the most populated city in the game (which you get to do before even your first quest,) you have nothing to actually do. Sure the zombie of the gender confused, optimistic hippie’ll ask you to write a book, but why’d you even WANT to? It’s like giving someone a huge, protein filled meal that tasted rather disguisting and then forcing them to eat more.

When you think about it, Fallout the third IS the best in the series, and also the only game that correctly portrays a mutated mutant. Wait, what?

-How'd you like it?
