The third game in the Fallout series. Fallout 3 is a singleplayer action role-playing game (RPg) set in a post-apocalyptic Washington DC. Combining the horrific insanity of the Cold War era theory of mutually assured destruction gone terribly wrong, with the kitschy naivety of American 1950s nuclear propaganda. Fallout 3 will satisfy both players familiar with the popular first two games in its series as well as those coming to the franchise for the first time.
