As a big fan of the Fallout universe I consider this one of the greatest games in the series. Many hours were plowed into this game with joy. When the game was first released the experience were quite buggy, it took almost half a year until most of the buggyness had been patched away, but after that; life was good! The original story is a bit short, but that's about as much negativity I have to say about the game itself. There are countless mods to further help you enhance this game. Needless to say, when you buy this game you actually buy the key to a Fallout-funbox. And if you are familiar with the older Fallout games in the series (which I still think are the best tbh.) I dare say that you will not be disappointed to relive the wasteland in 3D. I mean, even the game trailers are freakin' awesome! Right?! The only real pain to be told about this game -a pain which I cannot wish upon any game no matter the quality- was the nightmare of all nightmares, namely: >>Games for Windows Live<< That vile abomination bestowed upon this otherwise great game is something that I for one can never forgive or forget. Bethesda what were you thinking??? On Steam the game simply would not start at all unless you had the GFWL-client installed, no error message to point you in that direction either. Once the client had been installed there were like 20 or so subsequent patches for the client to be installed, many of which required the computer to reboot... The most evil thing about it was that you did not even have to log in to that piece of junk once it was updated and ready to go. It was a requirement to start the game but totally needless once the game was started. Lucky are the ones that can now get it here and play it the way it was meant to be played. Bought the game here as soon as I could, no more GFWL-Steam bullshit for me. So thank you GOG.com, for finally setting this game free from it's DRM shackles. It really deserves it. We -the gamers- really deserve it! So enjoy!!
