BethesdaFor a game that's over five years old, Fallout 3 is surprisingly still one worth playing. With steep discounts on regular sales and new mods being released to this day, there's still plenty of room for new fans to discover Bethesda's sprawling revival of the critically acclaimed Fallout franchise.
