Fallout 3 to me will always be a odd game to rank or rate. Such being simply put down to the conflicting ideas I have on what this game is. Because on one end I can endlessly agree with all the aspects of Fallout 3 that others consider to be "Bad." The true ending being locked behind DLC, the story and quests feeling shallow, or iron sights. But on the other side I can also see the positives. Being the first game in 3D and all that they where able to introduce to the fallout formula from such, combined with the relatively good ability on the developers to port old fallout concepts and game play mechanics to a newer medium; and how, at the end of the day, Fallout 3 is still a fun experience, and a not bad game.
