So I've been playing Fallout 3 on the PS3 recently and it kicks some serious ass. Some of the best things about the game? Intense close-combat fighting scenarios, body dismemberment, fluid graphics and excellent gameplay.

Fallout 3 is an RPG/first person shooter hybrid which uses the Oblivion engine as its base. Where they differ is the combat systems, however the RPG/gameplay experience is just as rich.

The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic setting in the late 22nd century, though its story and artwork are heavily influenced by the post-World War II nuclear paranoia of the 1950s. It was originally developed and owned by Interplay, but development and rights of Fallout was sold to bethsoft.

Here are some of the screen shots:
