Fallout 3 / PS3 – $19.99
Amazon’s Videogame Deal of the Day is the almost universally loved Fallout 3 (90 at Metacritic). It’s $19.99 for the PS3. PC and Xbox are still around $37. (Be sure to click through to the ‘Standard’ version.)
It’s a shooter with strong role-playing elements set in a — say it along with me! — a post-apocalyptic future. (It was either that, zombies, or WWII. A dart was thrown; decisions were made.)
GameSpy, in their 5/5 review said:
Yes, Fallout 3 is a lot like “Oblivion” (with guns!), but it’s a superior game in nearly every way, as it features a more engaging storyline, impeccable presentation, and hundreds of hours of addictive gameplay. While the jury is still out on whether or not hardcore Fallout enthusiasts will accept the game as part of the storied franchise, Fallout 3 is a must-have title for most RPG fans, as well as one of the finest games of this generation.
