Games that defined this Generation – Fallout 3

With the close of the current console generation fast approaching, we at the overseas connection are taking time to look back and relive some of those seminal 7th generation experiences. As I look back at the last eight years of gaming, one game stands out among the hundreds that really defined this generation, Fallout 3.

Sure was. Wish New Vegas was as good. Too many bug and to me anyway, it didn't feel the same.

Blacktric4658d ago

"Wish New Vegas was as good."

This was sarcastic... Right?

Roccetarius4658d ago

What exactly did Fallout 3 define this generation?

Canary4658d ago

Hm... interesting concept marred by mediocre execution, poor writing, and a painfully stupid ending? That's pretty indicative of this generation.

EazyC4658d ago

I picked it up on the day it came out, knowing little to nothing about it other than fantastic reviews, which made it so much sweeter. Leaving that vault for the first time.... THE moment of this-gen for me.

Yes leaving the vault was great, it truly felt like the beginning of a true adventure. But you couldnt just go anywhere, as stronger wandering horrors could easily take you down ... Great map, lots to do , good skill tree , good companions made a great game...

Did anyone ever successfully make a good melee character?

TheSaint4658d ago

Melee was actually kind of OP with the correct build.

As was unarmed.

Would be nice if they had New Vegas ready as well, especially because of the show.

Hopefully this doesn't have the same performance issues as Oblivion Remastered.

cloganart52d ago

I haven't seen anything on these performance issues? What's been going on?

walken752d ago

Probably the Unreal Engine issues, I skipped it for that reason.

Snookies1253d ago (Edited 53d ago )

Throw in all the DLC as well, like Oblivion and I'll definitely bite. I recall having one trophy left to unlock on the PS3 version with 100+ hours in my save. When my save file got corrupted, lol. Very sad day.

To be fair though, Bethesda was trash at Playstation ports anyway.

Michiel198953d ago

all devs sucked at porting to ps3 for the first like 3 years because no one had experience with the cell architecture. Even 1st party took a long while to get proficient with it, the difference between uncharted 1 and 3 is massive for example.

Extermin8or3_53d ago

Oh oh oh I can do this too. GTA 7 will be made at some point in the future. Fallout 5 will enter development in the future too

jznrpg53d ago

Everyone there should know most gamers want New Vegas and Morrowind more than anything.

Christopher52d ago

Which is why we won't get them. Gotta keep floating "support this one and it might happen".

BlaqMagiq153d ago

Can't wait. Won't have to go back to my PS3 to play this when it comes out.

Fallout 3 remastered on the Nintendo Switch 2 is what we deserve, not the worst Fallout game

Fallout Day's disappointing news that Fallout 4 is coming to Switch 2 is a shame, as this 17-year-old entry is more deserving of a new port.

Why exactly do you think you deserve it??

Phoenix76125d ago

Fallout 4 isn't the worst game in the franchise. It's either Fallout 76 or Fallout BOS that's the worst.

gigoran8124d ago

PC and all other modern consoles never got a remaster of 3, but obviously the switch 2 was the tipping point to make it a reality... ahuh

1nsomniac124d ago

Meh, I thought 3 was garbage. I'm not a great fan of the franchise to be fair. They're like B-Movie films, really shallow and janky. 4 was definitely one of the better ones though.

UltimateOwnage124d ago

So the article makes a snippy entitled statement and acts like that is going to encourage a publisher to give them what they want. Okay.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro312d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.
