| 12th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards Winner: Outstanding Achievement in Original Story and Role-Playing Game of the Year
Vault 101 – Jewel of the Wastes. For 200 years, Vault 101 has faithfully served the surviving residents of Washington DC and its environs, now known as the Capital Wasteland. Though the global atomic war of 2077 left the US all but destroyed, the residents of Vault 101 enjoy a life free from the constant stress of the outside world. Giant Insects, Raiders, Slavers, and yes, even Super Mutants are all no match for superior Vault-Tec® engineering. Yet one fateful morning, you awake to find that your father has defied the Overseer and left the comfort and security afforded by Vault 101 for reasons unknown. Leaving the only home you’ve ever known, you emerge from the Vault into the harsh Wasteland sun to search for your father, and the truth. |

| I'll start with the bad about Fallout 3. There aren't very many things to dislike about this game, there is a shortage of quests and the ending of the main story line is one of the worst I've ever experienced, but there are a good number of quest to keep you entertained for a good length of time. The game can also be buggy from time to time. My only major problem with this game is the requirement ...[More] |

| Here is a first person shooter (or 3rd person depending on play style) that has the early role playing point system of character development from the early 1990's.

The gameplay on hard settings levels the player up way too fast. To really enjoy the ...[More] |

| It made for an exteremely awesome game, but there was WAY too little amount of quests. I like how everything was so graphically amazing. Another problem was the insane amount of glitches. You can get stuck in random places, for instance, I got stuck inside a rock once. The one thing in fallout 3 that stood out was VATS-Vault Assissted Targeting System. You can freeze time go to VATS, shoot their h...[More] |

With a new, almost-complete build of Fallout 3 on show at Leipzig, it was only fair to take another trip to its post-apocalyptic Washington, DC.
