Why It Made the List
Do you like the idea of spending hundreds of hours on a single game? Do you like RPGs and shooters? Then you'll be absolutely thrilled with Fallout 3 from Bethesda, a game that mixes all of those elements together into one of the most stunning gaming experiences in recent memory. Fallout 3 tells the story of The Wastelander, a nameless hero (or villain) who is unleashed from his nuclear fallout shelter into an uncertain, alien world. Fallout 3 is all about exploration and choice, which is why the game takes so long to complete, and why it also has inherent replay value that brings the term "bang for your buck" to nearly unparalleled heights.
