Fallout 3 is a 2008 action role-playing game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. The game, which was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360, is set in the Washington metropolitan area 200 years after a devastating nuclear war. The player controls a 19 year old character who leaves a fallout shelter in search of their missing father. Fallout 3 features a freely explorable open world, and the player can engage in combat with a variety of weapons. The player can also initiate conversations with non-player characters, and depending on their actions, can affect how other characters perceive them.

Runs well on modern hardware.
