"One Of The Greatest Games EVER"

Wow, fallout.. lets see... THIS IS A GREAT GAME. If you like blood, gore, guns, women, beer, money.. this is the game for you. This game is very violent but fun =). The story line is awesome. Everything is awesome.. i'll break it down in sections to explain each section of the game in detail.

Story:10
First off is of course the story. The story is a edge of your seat story.. heres how it goes. Your a vault dweller and you have lived in a vault named ''vault 13'' with alot of other people. The reason you live there was because you wanted to survive the war. The overseer comes up to you and asks if you can go in the wasteland and find a new waterchip. He tells you they're old waterchip is about to break and you only got ''200?'' days to retrieve another one or the vault runs out of water. You have never been outside the vault before. Exciting? Theres more after you retrieve the water chip but i don't want to ruin it for you =P.

Gameplay:10
A very important part of a game. The gameplay in this game is awesome. Can you imagine blowing someone in half with a gun and see em bleed all over the place? you can do that in here. You can also cut them in half and alot more stuff. The combat is turned base so it gives you time to think, you can do aimed shots, or just regular shots. You can also do bursts to see some real carnage. You can negotiate with merchants and barter items, you can steal, lockpick, sneak all sorts of things. When you get levels you get skillpoints which can be spent on skills like ''small guns'' ''stealing'' etc, to improve your skills with them. You also get perks every 3 or 4 levels, these let you pick special skills like ''awareness'' which lets you look at people so you can see they're hitpoints. Stuff like ''thief'' to improve your thievery. All sorts of things.

Sound:10
The sounds are good. When you shoot the gun, you hear it and it sounds great. There's different music for all the different towns, You can hear them scream in agony when you shoot them in half. Also from missing a shot and hearing it hit a house, or whatever is behind your enemy. Not much to say except the sound is awesome. Find out for yourself.

replayability:10
I must have beat this game about 6 times already. You can do some much stuff in this game that who wouldn't want to replay it? When you replay it, its like your playing it for your first time again.

Buy Or Borrow?
BUY,BUY,BUY You will be sorry if you don't buy this game. Its only 10 dollars and you can receive both fallout 1 and fallout 2. This game is awesome. If your not into gore and blood and cussing, you might not like the combat. If you don't like rpgs you still might like this cause this is a very action packed rpg. One of the best games ever.
