17 Last-Gen Video Games That Will Be Viewed As Classics In Years To Come

7. Fallout 3

Who ever knew a world that's been blown to bits by nuclear bombs and covered in radiation could be so ridiculously entertaining? Although the premise of Fallout 3 is incredibly bleak, playing it is not; this is a game where you can do whatever you want. It doesn't matter whether that's balancing random items on top of each other in a supermarket, taking on an army of Super Mutants armed only with a crappy pistol or standing on a balcony and sacrificing the entire population of a town to the nuclear bomb they foolishly worship in the centre of town. Ok, so it may have its fair share of bugs (what Bethesda game doesn't?), but due to its incredibly large and complex nature, we can forgive the developers somewhat for not stamping them all out. Indeed, it's hard to care about such things when you're exploring dank, irradiated ruins for scraps of loot while shooting monsters in the face or using the V.A.T.S system to explode someone's head using a laser rifle. It's hard to imagine that anyone actually managed to see everything Fallout 3 has to offer. With hidden quests, an almost ludicrous amount of things to find plus several DLC packs that expand things even further, Fallout 3 certified the franchise as a bona-fide superstar. Given how good Fallout 3 was, we can't wait for the almost inevitable Fallout 4 that's sure to come to PS4 and Xbox One. Better graphics plus the trademark gameplay of this franchise is surely a recipe for success; let's just hope they don't keep us waiting too long.
