Prepare for the Future™
With Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition, experience the most acclaimed game of 2008 like never before. Create a character of your choosing and descend into an awe-inspiring, post-apocalyptic world where every minute is a fight for survival. Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition includes all five of the Fallout 3 Game Add-on Packs:
Operation: Anchorage - Enter a military simulation and fight in the liberation of Anchorage, Alaska from its Chinese Communist invaders.
The Pitt - Travel to the post-apocalyptic remains of Pittsburgh and become embroiled in a conflict between slaves and their Raider masters.
Broken Steel - Increase your level cap to 30, and finish the fight against the Enclave remnants alongside Liberty Prime.
Point Lookout - Embark on a mysterious and open-ended adventure in a huge, murky swampland along the coast of Maryland.
Mothership Zeta - Defy hostile alien abductors and fight your way off of the alien mothership, orbiting miles above the Capital Wasteland.
Main Features:
Limitless Freedom - Take in the sights and sounds of the vast Capital Wasteland! See the great monuments of the United States lying in post-apocalyptic ruin! You make the choices that define you and change the world. Just keep an eye on your Rad Meter!
Experience S.P.E.C.I.A.L. - Vault-Tec engineers bring you the latest in human ability simulation — the SPECIAL Character System! Utilizing new breakthroughs in points-based ability representation, SPECIAL affords unlimited customization of your character. Also included are dozens of unique skills and perks to choose from, each with a dazzling variety of effects!
Fantastic New Views - The wizards at Vault-Tec have done it again! No longer constrained to just one view, experience the world from 1st or 3rd person perspective. Customize your view with the touch of a button!
The Power of Choice - Feeling like a dastardly villain today, or a Good Samaritan? Pick a side or walk the line, as every situation can be dealt with in many different ways. Talk out your problems in a civilized fashion, or just flash your Plasma Rifle.
Blast 'Em Away With V.A.T.S. - Even the odds in combat with the Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System for your Pip-Boy Model 3000! V.A.T.S. allows you to pause time in combat, target specific body parts on your target, queue up attacks, and let Vault-Tec take out your aggression for you. Rain death and destruction in an all-new cinematic presentation.
Mind-Blowing Artificial Intelligence - At Vault-Tec, we realize that the key to reviving civilization after a global nuclear war is people. Our best minds pooled their efforts to produce an advanced version of Radiant AI, America's First Choice in Human Interaction Simulation. Facial expressions, gestures, unique dialog, and lifelike behavior are brought together with stunning results by the latest in Vault-Tec technology.
Eye-Popping Prettiness* - Witness the harsh realities of nuclear fallout rendered like never before in modern super-deluxe HD graphics. From the barren Wasteland, to the danger-filled offices and metro tunnels of DC, to the hideous rotten flesh of a mutant's face. *Protective Eyewear Encouraged.
This game would not start up at all for me. The only way to make it work was to install the mod "A Tale of Two Wastelands". Unfortunately, that needs you to also own Fallout New Vegas. Fortunately for me, I did - both on GOG.
Once I had installed that mod, when starting up the game up I needed to start a new game and then load my save game rather than load my save game straight from the menu.
After that it ran fine.
great game played it through doing every thing two times once without the console commands and one with the console commands where i start at certain level with special skills perks which is higher then normally started but as the game progresses and i acquired more through leveling i can maximize my character with 10 in all specials 100 in all skills many perks close to 40
it was only under microsoft i played this game using windows vista
i want to see them modify this game to be used for the apple imac
this is my favorite game
After originally downloading Fallout 3 from Steam and spending over a week trying to get it to work I gave up and deleted it and asked for a refund. I mentioned this on the LIZZ YouTube / Twitch site and she told me I should try the GOG version as it seemed to her and her followers to be a better version. She was spot on...I downloaded the game and followed the simple instructions to update my laptop system and the game started first time. I am not a hardcore gamer and there are only a few games I have via Steam, but they will be cancelled and I will move over to GOG . Again thanks for making my gaming experience easy.
Very off-topic here but I'm not sure what's wrong with everyone else's PCs... I'm on Win10 and I ran the game just fine. Thankfully, the game also supports cloudsaves so my save file was still there from 6 years ago apparently.
Anyways, this was one of the very first RPG games I've played. I remember playing it on Win7 all those years ago and it had that stupid LIVE feature that everyone hated, lol. One summer break, we didn't have internet for a bit. I remember spending countless nights just roaming around in that game (especially the ship city area). I have fond memories of the game.
I still think it's a solid game (though, New Vegas is the much better game). Thankfully, modding the game is quite easy since GOG uses the version of Fallout 3 that's most compatible with nearly all mods.
