Fallout 3
Fallout 3, développé par Bethesda Game Studios et édité par Bethesda Softworks, est sorti le 28 octobre 2008 sur PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 et PC. Ce jeu de tir et de rôle, troisième opus de la série, plonge le joueur dans un Washington D.C. post-apocalyptique où il incarne le Lone Wanderer contraint de fuir le Vault 101 après le départ de son père James, avant de parcourir les terres désolées à la recherche de ce dernier et de se heurter à l'Enclave. Réalisé avec le moteur Gamebryo, le titre propose une histoire principale bouclable en une vingtaine d'heures et une expérience complète pouvant dépasser les cent dix heures. Disponible au prix de 9,99 euros avec un système de protection SecuROM 7, il a reçu un score Metacritic de 91 et une note agrégée de 89,40. La presse a salué sa captivité et son ambition, l'Official Xbox Magazine évoquant un jeu rarement aussi prenant et 1UP qualifiant cette production de très ambitieuse à ne pas manquer, tandis que certains joueurs sur Metacritic louent son histoire et son exploration mais regrettent une prise en main initiale difficile.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Games this captivating do not come along often. Between its engrossing story, ginormous world, well-crafted RPG side, and white-knuckle FPS combat, Fallout 3 completely, utterly gives you your $60 worth. [Dec 2008, p.52] »
« Faults be damned, though; this is the kind of hugely ambitious game that doesn't come around very often, and when it does, you'd be a fool not to play it and enjoy the hell out of it and look forward to the day (next-next-gen?) when the fidelity of open-world RPGs takes another big step closer to the uncanny valley's far side. »
« Fallout 3 almost effortlessly succeeds in its central aim of reviving a much-loved brand to appeal to the vast majority of players. It's a thrilling, all-consuming experience that will absorb you for weeks, whether you're attracted by the action, the adventure, or the role-playing, as you fall in love with the relentless excitement, incredible atmosphere, sense of place and sheer choice...Bethesda has once again delivered a game of life-affirming brilliance that will be heralded as a classic, and talked about for years to come. »
« Yes, Fallout 3 is a lot like Oblivion (with guns!), but it's a superior game in nearly every way, as it features a more engaging storyline, impeccable presentation, and hundreds of hours of addictive gameplay. While the jury is still out on whether or not hardcore Fallout enthusiasts will accept the game as part of the storied franchise, Fallout 3 is a must-have title for most RPG fans, as well as one of the finest games of this generation. »
« Heck, it might just be the best console RPG of all time. It's deep, complex and tremendously addictive. From the amazing character development system to the engaging and satisfying combat, Fallout 3 has everything you could want in an RPG experience. »
« That’s the beauty of survival, and this world of fallout: It feeds on adventure and breathes in freedom, yet it dreams of order and the safety of the Vault. I can describe it, explain it, tell it in finely chosen words, but I can never make you fully understand for as long as you sit and listen. But even if I die, I do not worry. There will come a time when you will seize that lever and open that metal door, and it is then I will return. And the Wasteland will greet you, the birth of a legend. »
« The ironically devastated world of Fallout has never been better realized than in Fallout 3, offering a vast landscape that is almost relentlessly bleak in its hopelessness. It's absorbing, immersive, paradoxically beautiful, and kind of depressing to play over long periods of time. »
« Fallout 3 will probably end up being one of the best games of 2008 and, in it's one unique way, a worthy sequel in the Fallout series. Bethesda takes essential gameplay elements from the original Fallout games and gives these elements a new twist. The Fallout 3 gameplay is perfectly executed and Capital Wasteland offers a fantastic world in which you'll find plenty to discover, even after spending dozens of hours in this world. Gamers, hide in your bombshelter and don't resurface before you've played Fallout 3. »

« Amazing story and sad story you can explore the whole wasteland and fight various different monsters and the weapons were awesome! And this is an absolute must play! »
« Great Game but takes a long time to understand what's happening but perservior the games gets better as the game goes on »
« Verken de grote kaart in een redelijk open wereld, kies uit een arsenaal wapens of probeer de gewillige tegenstander om te praten. De enigste problemen op dit platform komen zodra je boven level 20 geraakt. Lag en scherm freezes, dus bewaar geregeld. Het v.a.t.s. systeem is best te gebruiken op bepaalde schietende tegenstanders, dat zal toekomstige confrontaties vergemakkelijken. Lichaamsdelen durven exploderen, dus niet voor mensen met een zwakke maag. »
« Everyone knows this masterpiece. Top tier open world game no matter what year it is or how old it gets. »
« I want to tell you from the beginning not to be intimidated by the fact that it's an old game, NO, it's a gold mine once you understand it and get the hang of it, I've lost hundreds of hours in it and I always come back to it fondly, it's a shame what Bethesda has become though... »
« Al principio pensé que estaba sobrevalorado spoiler NEL BRO la tema buena el ambiente excelente lo que. Si no me gusta es que el mapa es "cerrado" porque quiero ir por un lado pero hay unos escombros que no me lo permiten pero ... Igual es un juegardo lo subestimé... »
« yeah like someone else said here , this game destroys even the iconic gta 4 »
« 9.5 - Fallout 3 is a masterclass in open-world design, blending bleak atmosphere with dark humor and meaningful choice. Exploring the Capital Wasteland feels immersive and unpredictable, with countless stories hidden in ruins. Its RPG systems are deep yet accessible, though combat can feel clunky. Despite minor flaws, its freedom and world-building make it unforgettable. »
