Great game to play, I would highly recommend it!!!

The game is a lot like skyrim just in a different setting

Fun game. Would recommend for any user who likes these types of games.

This game locks up every now and then, but it's a good game.

My friend has all fall aut games so I hope hi life's the last one

I think it's too hard to play and for more patient gamers.

I have played every verison of Fallout 3, and the PS3 version just doesn't run well after you beat the game. Consistently crashes, freezes and the frame rate drops like crazy.

Not sure what year it made game of the year but must have been a bad year for gaming.

I played the XBOX version last year and was waiting for the Game of the Year Edition for all of the downloadable content. Received a new PS3 for Christmas, so got the PS3 Game of the Year Ed. It can be slow at times and freezes regularly. Sometimes it starts working again after a few minutes. Usually, I have to shut down the PS3 main power and restart thus losing all unsaved data. So save frequently. Even with all of the problems, it is still worth it.

I bought this game purely on a recommendation from a friend and would do so again in a heartbeat. Hours of entertainment. Fallout 3 provides you with the ability to follow a specific quest path or take a break and just go explore a broad and exciting world. This game is unique in that items and other effects never disappear. However, with that ongoing tally of information it seems that the more you play this game the more it causes the PS3 to crash/freeze. You can avoid a lot of headaches by saving often.

Fallout 3 has been out for a while, but this wraps Fallout 3 and the 5 expansion modules in to one attractively priced package. The game is engaging, but the player will need to invest a bit of time in it up front before it catches hold of you. I played the game for several sessions before I reached my "break-through" point. Now I can't wait to get some more time to play. Warning note for parents: The game does have foul language, and the violence is often and graphic. My only dislike with the game is the buggy behavior. My son and I have had it freeze up often, sometimes forcing us to go back to a previous save file to continue. It also will pause during gameplay, almost as if there is too much going on for the console to keep up. I've also run into a couple of gaffs where I've found myself in the middle of a quest without having gone through all of the steps necessary to start the quest! Overall, however, this has been a very enjoyable game. In a time where many games can be finished in a few hours, making you regret buying them, this game is well worth the current price!

I purchased Fallout 3 for Xbox 360 on launch day. Eventually I purchased the GOTY edition for PC and enjoyed the community mods. Now I've purchased the PS3 version and I have to say, Fallout 3 is one amazing game. Bethesda is one of my favorite game companies. They sure pulled through with these games. One word of advice for PS3 owners, uncheck the auto-save boxes for "rest" and "travel." It reduces the chances of glitching by a long shot. Game-on!

THE BAD: So I just got this game four days ago and I knew there were glitches and freezes but it happens more than I expected so save your game frequently. Day one: played it for 9 hours and after about seven, it froze up while in a firefight and had to shut off PS3 the hard way. Day two: played for 6 hours and my V.A.T.S. glitched and got stuck but I could shut down game normally. Day three: 2 hours and no problems. Day four: played for 5 hours and while rushing a mutant, the game completely shut down and went back to the PS3 XMB. Also it's unrealistic, like you can shoot someone with 3 shots to the head and they might still be alive and kicking, but it's an RPG so if you can look past that it's actually a plus. The menu you use frequently could be a bit easier to navigate but it's not bad THE GOOD: I haven't liked RPGs since FF3 until now. This game is very fun. I love the way the mutants look and there's giant scorpions and stuff. You are in a wasteland which is the remains of Washington D.C. after a nuclear war. sometimes ammo is scarce. There are so many ways you can apply points so that you end up being skilled in different areas(like the way I've applied my points so far, I'm good with small guns, lockpicking and hacking computer terminals) and they also have these things called perks so each time you level up you get to pick one, for instance, I picked this one where sometiimes when you shoot enemies they explode when they die, but it also increases firepower by a bit. There's so much to this game, that I could never fully explain it to you. I'm sure there are still probably at least 50 hours of gameplay(I've heard you can do it in less time if you skip the nonessential quests). I'm sure I'll play it through once more after I beat it but create a completely different character with different skills just to see what it's like. I'm very picky and if it wasn't for the glitches, I would give this game a 9.7 out of 10 AND IT"S GORY!!!! So just buy it already.

i like this game so much this is the third time i bought it, thats also because my 360 broke and i do not want to fix it, i like my ps3 100 times better. and the graphics seem alot better 4 fallout3 i have not beat it yet because i like it so much i do not want it to end this game is worth every penny trust me i spent at least 220$ on it in one year

masterdecker: this game is buggy on ps3 cause it uses the engine from oblivion and it was ported from 360 to ps3, thats why its a pitty that this awesome game does not worth being played on a ps, if you hate the competitor, go play it in a pc and youll notice the diference its game of the year and there are lots of reasons why... awesome since the very first release back in 1997 greetings

This is one of the greatest games of all time! It is the perfect combination of RPG and first person shooter that will keep you engaged with a great story line and character development while delivering most of the action you'd expect from a FPS. The problem is the DLC and GOTY releases for PS3 are seriously flawed. I could not finish the game because it got so annoying. Every few minutes frame rates would slow to crawl, the game would stutter and stop for seconds on end and several times an hour you have to reboot the PS3 because it would freeze completely. This is NOT good to do to your PS3!!! It can burnout in short order if you ahve to keep switching it off and on like this. The worst of it, unfortunately, is Bethesda Softworks has not acknowledged the problem publically over a month after release, despite the fact that all the forums, including their own forum are rife with irate customers who bought this but now find it either unplayable or at least painful to play. The probems seem to get worse as your player advances. I have to give 1 star because no matter how good a game is, it needs to be playable and enjoyable. Further, the manufacturer has yet to own up to this problem. Recommend waiting to see if and when a patch will be made available. Buyer beware, this is broken software!

If you haven't gotten fallout 3, this is the version you want. It has the full game, plus all downloadable content in one cheap easy package. it's a violent, but amazing game and well worth every cent you pay for it.

The game and extra content is great, I love the entire series. The developers know that the game is buggy and locks up the PS3 regularly, and yet in an email responce from them, they have no plans to fix the issue of random locking up of the game.

Amazing experience, and very long game. It's a very involved game, and you need time to play it. GOTY edition comes with tons of content.

Going to be controlling my life for the next year or until the new fallout realeases next year! cant wait for the dlc and all the new missions. great game must buy!!!
