Back when i was doing some 3d, i wanted to model a large ufo type of saucer and the only good reference for inspiration was the large spaceship from mothership zeta.
I bought Fallout 3 game of the year edition and wanted to go straight into the dlc not knowing a thing about fallout 3 and it's universe.

The thing is i got so immersed in the game from the start that i completly forgot about my main objective until i was in the middle of the game

Hello, so i was just thinking about my 1st experience with fallout, i was watching my friend play it on the 360 and i instantly fell in love with it but i was wondering when and how did you find out about fallout?

Got Fallout 3 after seeing great reviews, then got trapped on Vault 87 and gave up until a year later I gave it another go and then the hours just flew by.

The TV ad for FO3. Got me hook, line, and sinker. Addicted from the first commercial.

I saw Fallout 1 in the store. It had a pretty huge box with a flip up cover. The cut scene graphics looked amazing for around 1998. I ended up buying it, and I'm glad it did. Compared to the plot lines of games I was playing on consoles at the time, it blew them away. It reminded me of the old school Ultima games.

I first got into Fallout with Fallout 3. My brother bought it on his XBox 360 back in 2008, I believe. I still remember sitting in a rocking-chair in the middle of a half-constructed living room and playing it.

A friend back in the days of Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel recommended buying BoS, so I bought it and have been hooked on the series ever since.

Back in 2008, I was waiting for Left 4 Dead to release so I wanted to play a game to pass the time until then. I bought Fallout 3 for the Xbox 360 at a local GameStop. And at first, I didn't like playing it at all. The gameplay was clunky, bugs were a constant annoyance, and I felt the game dragged on. But I didn't give up on the game, and I continued to play it. I started to get addicted to it after a lot of hours playing and I eventually loved the game. I even forgot about the L4D release and continued on playing Fallout 3. I even built my first computer to play Fallout 3 with mods.

i got into fallout by watching alchestbreach never heard of fallout untill i watched some of his vidoes, but his style of playing made me laugh, so i though i could get some enjoyment of my time playing new vegas with all the mods and such.

Back in '08, I was still playing TES IV Oblivion and was looking for some moddable game similar to it. And there it was, by the same company, so I thought let's give it a try. I was blown away. And two years after that, in search for mods I've found you guyz. So games do keep us entertained for some amount of time but mods kept us together all those years.
Keep up the good work guys, all modders, troubleshooters, screen-shooters...
This is my BIG thanks to all of you.
Cheers.

i've seen fallout 3 on my good Buddy on his PS3 ... and was excited about the VATS mode ^^
then i bought it for PC ...

Best Time starts ^^

First discovered it on 360 when my dad got me it for christmas..easily the best christmas of my life

Modding around Fallout NV, but I discovered Fallout when Fallout 3 was released. I played the hell out of it and have looked into and researched the series since.

Discovered the Fallout series absolutely ages ago, when I was like 8? Mainly due to the fact that my dad enjoys his gaming, although nowhere near as much as I do
We had Fallout: APNRPG on PC, and then when Fallout 3 was released, my dad and I bought it that day, and we did the same with Fallout: NV, but by this time he had gone off down the Play-Station route, whilst I've always stuck to my X-Box (now X-bone - please don't hate me), but then I bought Fallout: NV on my PC so I could mod it to death haha!

I was pretty young , around 10 or 11 years old, my uncle is really the really got me into gaming. I went round his house one day and saw him playing Fallout 3 on the pc. I loved the design and the way it looked so much that i begged him to let me play it and i was hooked on the game . After that i actually forgot about the game untill like 2 years ago, i was watching a playthrough an just fell in love with the game again. After that i bought Fallout 3 goty edition and Fallout New Vegas Ultimate edition on the xbox 360. I got my first gaming pc this year, Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas and Skyrim were the first games i bought for it

First one I played was fallout 3, and it was after beating it that I decided to check out the earlier games.

Fallout 3 was the first one I played, before that I wasn't too into PC gaming. I guess now I can thank my older brother for introducing Fallout to me.

New Vegas is my 1st Fallout game... I was searching for Skyrim mods when I came across a ton of Fallout mods. I bought it so I could download them, but now I want more mods. That's why I'm so eager to at least get mod access here, because a major YouTuber recommended this site to me, and showcased some really cool mods.

Fallout New Vegas was my first, only because of recommendations from friends, and boy were they right. The games are fun, but then someone brings mods to the table and they just get even better.

Fallout 3 was the first one i played, it wasnt really recommend to me by anyone i just saw it and thought it looked cool, bought it for the xbox 360 in like 2009-2010, from blockbuster. Yea that's right BLOCKBUSTER.

Had a Staff Sergeant in the Marines who was a gamer before the Corps. Bought us a 360, but we didn't have internet connection so he purchased a bunch of single player games for cheap. FO3 GOTY was fortunately one of them. I didn't get to play to much when I was in; mostly watch. And it was never immersive because the other Marines couldn't stop laughing at Amata's dialogue. I made it the top of my list of things to buy when I got out though. Been hooked ever since.
