Very good

This is one of the most complete games I've played. I got the GOYE for Xbox 360, and I really have no complaints. If you have a bad-ass computer, maybe you should get if for PC, since you can always increase the quality. I almost bought it for PS3. If you are thinking about doing this, read the reviews of people who bought it for the PS3.

Good job Bethesda
Not a hybrid or a FPS, its pure RPG

If you enjoy wandering around wastelands with no idea what to do no idea how to sell your stuff or how to survive without spending hours reading walkthroughs, then this is highly recommended.

If you enjoy intuitive games with proper instructions that are well designed and fun to play, this is not for you.
Fun But Flawed

Reviewer: B. Freels,
The main is great. In this PS3 version everything that was included in the original packaging works. The only freezes a few times. Not perfect, but still playable. The expansions, on the other hand, really frustrated me. All of the expansions froze or crashed on me multiple times. I was able to finish them, yet because of the glitches it wasn't fun. I am currently making my way through my last expansion - Broken Steel - and just today it froze on me ten times at the air force base. I've spent the past hour trying to work my way through it, but it keeps freezing at different points for no real obvious reason. Really frustrating. Really disappointing.
NICE!

Basically the story, characters, artwork etc is perfect. 5/5

This is the " of the " so it has all the DLC's, which I consider "must have."

Random stuff :

1) Being "evil" sucks. The apartment they give "evil" character is a pain to get to, 4-5 loading screens, also you lose so many useful NPC's. I guess it's realistic, if you're an outlaw you shouldn't expect much help from society.

2) Being "good" is extremely viable and easy but the apartment they give "good" characters is a depressing 1 room shack.

3) The DLC's add alot. I mean ALOT. The core takes maybe 20-30 hours to finish (if you don't explore much), the DLC's add maybe 80-100 hours. With exploring, sidequests, and replay...I've put in like 400-500 hours. You get your money's worth.

4) All playstyles are viable. Unarmed. Stealth. Sniper. Melee. Run and gun. Heavy weapons. Traps. They all work.

5) If you have bad aim, no problem. Just use VATS and have followers.

6) VATS is a system whereby you freeze time, pick out targets, and the does your shooting, you sit back and watch like a cinema.

7) Followers are highly effective and kick butt all by themselves.

8) Highly recommended to get a strategy guide. There is so much to this . Get the paperback one.

I give this 4/5

I took off 1 point for random bugs and crashes.

Where's my bonus content?

I've beaten the base three times over. I've been all over the map, good and bad, searched every nook and crany. So where's the bonus content as advertised on the back of the box? Where's the alien mothership level? I found the crashed saucer, but no beaming and no aliens. Where's those other levels that were promised to me? I've searched walkthroughs and forums on the net, and they allude to these levels on the console version but not the PC version. I'm starting to think OF THE is just a repackage of the core .

If I'm wrong about this and I just need to download a patch or something, please let me know. Until then I'm saying that either due to the 's glitches, or the possibility the is a core repackage I'm giving a 3 star. They shouldn't advertise stuff for the if they are gonna deliver. Also I can only seem to get up to level 20 and not 30 as put on the box.
Innovative, but somewhat overrated

Reviewer: Shane Allen Windham, Dallas, TX
After hearing so many good things about this , I was stoked to finally sit down with it. And while, yes, the is very, very different from anything I've ever played, and it certainly introduces some neat new mechanics; I still found the gameplay a bit lacking and slow. And I'm an RPG fan who's used to slow progression within games. So perhaps certain parts of the storyline are (no way to put it lightly) boring. These things aside, the was still an original experience. And if you like it enough, you might think it worthwhile enough to play a second or even a third time around, just to see how differently you can go about playing the and changing the storyline. My advice: Rent it first to see how you feel about this one. A good . But certainly not everything the big name reviewers made it out to be.

Reviewer: Joe,
Very difficult to get working - I get constant crashes and can't manage to get it to run. I'm sure the would be fun but after 3+ hours of fighting with software with no results I'm done with it.
3 is awesome, when it works.

Reviewer: anonymous,
I recently finished the regular campaign of 3, and I had a blast. There were no real problems to speak of... I think the crashed once or twice, but mostly because I played all day and the console got hot. When it came to playing the expansion material (Broken Steel was what I tried playing,) the crashed like crazy. Sometimes I'd let it run for a minute or two, and it'd work itself out. More often, however, I'd have to get up and manually turn off the console. I think it was about every 30-45 minutes between crashes.

Bethesda keeps releasing games that are right up my alley, but they can't manage to release one without bugs. I get that sandbox games have a lot going on, and you might not ever get a perfect one, but come on! At least make'em so they run!

Adult level RPG with wide-open play. With DLCs included and a very large mod community, you can easily play this for 200 hours.
