The game does not work on my PC yet it passed the expected specs and this has left me bummed tbh. The game downloads perfectly but whenever I try starting it, it ends up crashing and even freezes my PC

  • Game is not working
Perfect game Allwazs remember classic :) as it's different from his older brothers this Game is perfect.

Excelent Story, Very good gameplay however as all Bethesda game it has some wierd glitches and crashes.

Lot of possibilities how to play your character and the game.

10/10
  • Good
A gem that bounced Fallout back on its feet. It gave a new breath of fresh air to a decrepit franchise and while not perfect, it holds up very well after 14 years. The story, characters, music and especially the atmosphere make this game a timeless masterpiece. Fallout 3 walked so that New Vegas could run.
  • Rich and relatable story (at least for the first half)
  • Exciting Gameplay, doesn't get boring after 14 years
  • Aiming is just zooming and unpractical

Great Game and is worth to be replayed. So keep it in your heart!
  • Old but Gold
  • Great Story
  • Controls feel wierd at first
Game will not run. Crashes after pressing play.
The game won't get past 97% installed. There is no way to rate the game properly if I can't even play it. GOG, the installer, is crappy for support - has never handled past support requests for other games, either.
I'm genuinely soooo glad I got a game for 5 bucks instead of 20. Also soo glad that the process wasn't some complicated "do these extra steps" thing ykk. Love this and will def be using it more omgggg
Instant Code. I used paypal and it was effortless. Took less than 2 minutes to compelte my order. Price (including paypal fees) were the lowest available when using cheapdigitaldownload.com to find the prices.

TY
  • Quick Service
I got code in an instant. Saved myself around 7 bucks. Easy and quick to get and install the game. Only bad thing would be the game graphics. But the game is from 2008, and has low pc specs recommendations so I can't really complain. 9/10 Would recommend :)

pee pee poo poo pee pee poo poo pee pee poo poo pee pee poo poo
  • 0,01 too much
not supported for windows 7 and higher without a lot of trouble. Even if its a good game better look for the fallout 4 if you don't want to reconfigure many thing for a single game which will (probably since its bethesda) many bug.
  • game not supported on window 7 and up
Save your money! Do NOT buy this game from here! The Steam edition does NOT work and isn't optimized on PC. Buy it through GOG, you'll be happy you did as their version IS optimized! Since buying the game through here, I couldn't get a refund since I technically redeemed the digital key on steam.
  • Game doesn't work/launch
Since I already own Fallout 4 I decided to buy this classic. Fantastic game as always with good graphics. I could go in full detail about it but I will leave it upto you to decide what you think of this game.
  • Good graphics
  • Great Gameplay
  • Ticks all the boxes
  • Story could of been longer
  • A mini map so you know where to go just like fallout 4
I'd like to start to say F4CK YOU to the "10" votes, ruining the score of this MASTERPIECE for nothing...
That said, this is the game! 2008, incredible graphic for that time, awesome story, even more awesome environment (you really feel in a post atomic era), Open world exploration, awesome variety of enemies, mod of gadgets and weapons very satisfactory, awesome longevity, its my top 3 game ever, just incredible work from Bethesda...

Il gioco crea troppi problemi su Windows 10.
Innanzitutto non parte, devi scaricare Game for Windows Game.
Seconda cosa il gioco crasha ogni 20 minuti perché non supporta i ''nuovi'' processori quad core, bisogna scaricare patch non ufficiali o modificare alcuni file nella cartella di gioco.
An absolute classic and one of the games that got me into playing RPG's when I first played it.

The guns are all varied and fun to play with and I wish VATS could be in more games as it makes it an absolute blast to fight.
  • Good story
My favourite game ever, great modding platform, kinda boring base game but when modded , it can get crazy , ahahhah. Great RPG elements, great exploration locations, amazing lore, and pretty good DLCs.
  • modding
  • graphics :/
There is no game in universe like Fallout for me, This one with New Vegas should gain Game of The Century Edition :D Bethesda <3

Take it ! Hold it ! Love it !

What else to say it´s Fallout my Dudes!
  • Game of The Century
Best game ever for me ,best combat, realistic visuals, a lot of player choice and you can spend many hours without moments of boredom .DLC are good enough to spend more time with them .The only problem is compatibility with Win 7 and 10
  • Love characters and open world
  • Compatibility with Win 7 and 10
Well started playing FallOut NV and 4 before friends insisted that I should buy FO3.... They told me it had a more creepy/darker side then the other ones and right they are :D love it, love it :D !!!!
  • everything :p
  • takes away all my free time
my first and always my favourite game i was so happy when i got this game of course back then the graphics were amazing but now they're not that great but still pretty good for a 2008 game this game will always be #1 for me
  • fun open world with lots of things to do
