Despite characteristic jank and some recent...shall we say...setbacks, Bethesda's Fallout IP is one of enduring popularity through its four mainline titles.

Although the numbered entries have gained their fair share of success, many consider spin-off New Vegas to be amongst the series' best offerings.
