NHR: Fallout 3 Review

NHR:

"Weapons…oh beautiful weapons. The weapons are broken down into 6 groups as all the Fallout games have done before. Small guns, Big guns, Energy weapons, Explosives, Melee and unarmed weapons. For my first run through i used small guns, which are incredibly effective if you have the ability to snipe at all. One shot to the head from stealth will kill most any enemy. Energy weapons are wicked fun, as you get to melt people from time to time, but they are kinda difficult to find, and to find ammo for. Big guns (my favorite) are exactly that. Massive amounts of ordinance headed in your enemy's direction is what its all about. Explosives would be grenades and mines, really they are a supplement to any other weapon type. Melee weapons you will use, a lot. Ammo is scarce and if you can get away hitting something with a stick…do it. I never used unarmed combat because I never had a reason to do so.

The navigation in this game can get a little bit boring and annoying from time to time. The map is massive and the landmarks are spread out, especially if you head to the northwest area of the map. In the DC ruins you can explore the subway system and the actual ruins of DC itself. I made a goal to actually visit the Capitol building which was magnificently done. There is complete chaos at the Capitol, and a behemoth that is incredibly fun to fight. I have logged over 30 hours in this game already since release and have yet to explore even half of the sites available."

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.

cloganart131d ago

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

walken7131d ago

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

Snookies12132d ago (Edited 132d 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.

Michiel1989131d 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_131d 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

jznrpg131d ago

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

Christopher131d ago

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

BlaqMagiq1131d 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??

Phoenix76203d ago

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

gigoran8203d 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

1nsomniac203d 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.

UltimateOwnage203d 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

ZeekQuattro391d 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.
