My son agrees with me when I say it is an amazing, immersive, exciting escape. I choose to be a kind, helpfully do gooder and it feels very rewarding, seeing people happy after I help them, gaining weapons and armour across the way, modifying them and picking up junk across the post apocalyptic...

This game, as with others in the series, has a fantastic and gripping story line with great character depth. Bethesda have done an incredible job increasing the replay ability of this game creating a world where all decisions create different narratives and endings.

replay ability; memorable; great narrative

bugs; graphics mediocre

A huge game that's anything you want it to be. An immense RPG, shooter, and world to explore that is only constrained by your imagination and desire to explore.

Huge and totally open world; gameplay and design; Lovely; colourful visual upgrade; Vastly improved combat; Oh God; its HUGE

High requirements make it a slog to craft anything; Frame rates can be choppy

…Or. The game Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer should have been! That will make sense in a bit, because it was at one point my only real issue with Fallout 4, but that has long since been sorted out on my side. This is a late review, so let me get this part out of the way first.

Great and fun game to play for hours with heaps of sidequests and open world, however only negative is serious amounts of bugs and glitches in cut scenes.

Anyone familiar with Fallout 3's Point Lookout DLC (or indeed any of Skyrim's additional content) will know that Bethesda took the backlash to that whole "horse armour" debacle pretty seriously and ha

A massive new area to explore; New factions and characters feel interesting and fresh; Loads of new loot; missions and adventures

Main story isn't as compelling as the search for Shaun; Technical issues persist; Even more vast areas with nothing to do

Most of the way this huge roleplaying-shooter game works is carried over from its excellent predecessors, Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. It is the Skyrim to Fallout 3's Oblivion, if you will – it iterates on the previous game's already amazing systems, and it's similarly dense with locations to...
