Fallout 3: Can You RUN It?

GameXtract writes "Recently Bethesda released the requirements for the PC version of Fallout 3 which is scheduled to release this October 28th. I have to admit that the requirements are pretty forgiving, and won't cost one of your limbs. Some people though are too lazy to check the requirements against their own machine or even at times they have no clue what kind of PC they own. Heck I know some people who think Hotmail, and the Internet are the same thing. One of my favorite tools to use is systemrequirmentlab's Can You RUN It? The application will ease the process of determining if your PC can run a specific game. All you got to do is select the game, and bam! It does all the work for you. Recently they have uploaded Fallout 3, and you can now see or get confirmation if you have already manually determined, to see if your computer is ready to face post apocalyptic creatures."

Full info, and link after the jump.

this seems very useful. but can i run it? No! i need to upgrade from my P.O.S. pc to a new one. i gues i am going to have to settle with the ps3 version for now. but i would love 2 see crysis and far cry 2 at high settings. i guess i can always sell my kidney on the black market so i can get a gaming rig :(

JsonHenry6434d ago

I will be able to run it maxed out at a native Resolution of 1680*1050.

But since I plan on playin this on my TV at 1920*1080 I **may** have to turn one or two settings down slightly. But I can run STALKER CS and Crysis Warhead maxed out so maybe I will not have to turn down anythign at all? I hope!

moses6434d ago

Do you have a 4870x2?

I have a Super Super clocked EVGA GTX 280 and I can't even run Stalker Clear Sky at maximum 1920x1200.

Go newegg.com !

Also remember that powerful computer can do other things like encoding video. A dual core helps a lot when I convert DVDs to mp4 for my psp.

Counter_ACT6434d ago

Yep. Wont be buying it though.

jpod6434d ago

I didn't run the program, but I looked up the requirements. I can run it. :D

TornRaptor6434d ago (Edited 6434d ago )

I can't run it, not on this rig.
I want the DLC so its the 360 edition for me.

TheIneffableBob6434d ago

Both versions have the same DLC. The PS3 version is the only one without DLC.

Also, the PC version will have plenty of mods if the PC version of TES IV is any indication.

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.

cloganart138d ago

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

walken7138d ago

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

Snookies12139d ago (Edited 139d 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.

Michiel1989138d 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_138d 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

jznrpg138d ago

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

Christopher138d ago

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

BlaqMagiq1138d 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??

Phoenix76210d ago

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

gigoran8210d 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

1nsomniac210d 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.

UltimateOwnage210d 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

ZeekQuattro398d 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.
