Fallout 3 Review for XBOX 360

This is more of a section of your life than a game - its that big. Were talking over 100hrs of content and tons of new downloads for it too!

The game is about a huge expriment that is happening and a boys\girls quest to find their father. You start at birth and quickly learn to walk and most of the ins and outs of controlling your character. When you finally leave youre safe haven the game really comes to life. You can go anywhere - kill anything and do almost anything. The game has a set story to follow which can pan out in over 100 endings, but there is no strict rule that you have to follow it. You can just wander around killing and looting if you wish, or even just talking to all of the humans that you meet. The game is from a 1st person point of view and has RPG style XP points that get you new abilities and improve things such as strength and use of weapons, and the world is so huge that it would take you the best part of a say to walk from one side to the other - and you will probably die in the process. The game again like so many more today has adaptive enemies. It will not put you against the strongest creature (such as a deathclaw) t level 1 - you will get mole rats, and then as you level up the wimpy enemies dissapear and the harder ones come out to play making it a continuous challenge.
One example of the excellent storyline is a place called Oasis. Now bearing in mind that the game is set in america, but there has been a nuclear war so there are no plants, literally nothing normal alive! Oasis is hidden in a rocky hillside, and whn you walk in there are lush plants everywhere. There are 15 or so people to talk to and a long story chunk in this part but to cut it short - the people that live there all worship a tree called Harold - he was once a man and has now turned to a tree! He asks you til kill him and put him out of his misery - the followers want him to live - so you are faced with a choice - believe me one of many in the game - do what you like but either way there will be consequences!!!

So to sum it up - 1st person shooter, tons to kill, tons to explore, some truly great weapons (especially a gun called the fat man which launches mini nuclear missiles) ad some truly strange beasts - highly recommended!
