- To celebrate the launch of Starfield, Bethesda's first brand new IP in 25 years, I want to start crawling through the library of amazing IP that they own. Beginning with Fallout, this is a game series that is responsible for me even being here in the first place. This franchise has seen some ups-and-downs from beat-em-ups to magnificent open world games and even a delve into the online space. Join me on a deep dive into the history of a franchise that's like no other!

My uncle got me on fallout 3. He said its a shooter and you cant beat it. I accidentally rushed the story and beat it in a few days, and just said, "wth, you said this doesn't end"
That’s my experience with Fallout 3 everytime, I always add it to my new Vegas playthrough with tale of two wastelands but never get more than 7-10 hours worth of story out of fallout 3 I have no idea what I’m missing with that game
@@ChichiNaka you didn't like the story of 3? I think that's funny bc my cousin and I don't like NV because of its story. Lol

Fallout 3 is an incredible, incredible game.
You never forget the first time you play a Fallout game, the experience is life changing.
For me it was FO3. Still remember daydreaming about it when I was in middle school lol. First year i failed a class
@@pat9529 The first one i played was FO4, i played a lot but it was like Skyrim with guns and npc's were bland and robotic, soulless. Then i met New Vegas it was the complete opposite of FO4, where the game lacked in mechanics and grafics won me over with the characters and the story, and that incredible dlc Dead Money made me love the game even more. For me it was New Vegas who changed my life.
I mean i agree that the first FO game you play might be a life changing experience but FO4 didn't click with me after a 100 hours or so i didn't want to play anymore.
I also finished FO1 and i have to say, i prefer 1 over 4 lol.
Same for any Fromsoftware games
@@sylphy6662played FO4 and tried the first 4 hours 3 different times due to my friends begging and it being a Bethesda title. I hate that game. Bought New Vegas on a 90% steam sale three years later and I have 700 hours. It accomplished the same feeling of emotional investment and connection Morrowind did for me regarding the Elder Scrolls for Fallout's world. It's one of the best sandbox and lore based rpg games of all time. I can't say either really changed my life like Dark Souls 1, KOTOR, Mount and Blade, Portal 2 or the afore mentioned Morrowind tho. I desperately want to play FO1 and especially 2 but I've had the plot spoiled already so I'm trying to wait a few years before jumping on it. Let me know if you like 2!
@@OpaqueNihilist Will do! If i can find this comment section again in the future :D
While New Vegas is my favourite Fallout game, I hold a lot of fond memories from Fallout 3. First seeing it advertised at a bus stop in London, to buying my first copy on EBay, then finally purchasing the GOTY edition. As well as in game moments, like leaving the Vault 101 for the first time, and seeing the wasteland for the first time, nothing will ever beat that feeling...
All Starfield has done is make me crave an open world experience so I’m playing Fallout 3 again
Same, but I chose Fallout 4 instead.
Ahhhh brings me back 8 years ago to Mrmattyplays fallout days
Fallout new Vegas was the first one I ever played. Loved it so much and been a fan of the series since
Yeah amazing game and so much replayability. I just got starfield but honestly am just itching to go back to my new vegas playthrough.
unfortunately with the hardware I possess, I'm unable to play Starfield. However, the release of the game had me wanting to play a Bethesda title, so I've been playing Fallout 3 since and its been immensely enjoyable - the backwards compatibility of Xbox recently improved the game to 60 frames. @@FalconMain3
Rip Obsidian 😭😭😭
I really would love a return to Fallout 1 level atmosphere and dread, it really had some of my favorite lore with the Master. I would love to see a port of 1 and 2 or a full on first person remake.
Check out wasteland 2 it's kinda like what fallout 3 would have been in an alternate universe where Bethesda didn't buy the fallout rights and Interplay lived on
@@jakemiddleton1783i love wasteland games. So good
@@jakemiddleton1783Funny how Wasteland is at the same time the inspiration for Fallout and the one who continued nuclear isometric RPGs.
Fallout 1 really messed me up when it came out. It introduced me with mature problematics and literally turned me into a young adult, and Fallout 2 finished the job. Murder, prostitution, drug and human trafficking... They were dark games.
Or even better imagine an HD-2D, like Octopath Traveler but with the Fallout art style, I'd buy the fuck out of that
New Vegas is a life changing experience,it made look at video games like I never did before
Fallout new Vegas is a special flawed little gem that changed peoples lives it's undoubtedly one of the best PS3 Xbox 360 first person shooter open world RPG ever made
@@HEARTSFORYOUGUYS.bu
Seems like New Vegas & Wasteland 3 are the two best ones i have.. Fallout 4 at #3.. It’s unfortunate about some of the glitches however
New vegas is truly the greatest game ever made. I think it’s made me not like so many other games since as they pale in comparison.
@@Boxinghotspur57I only played new vegas going into fallout 4 and MAN realizing how different the spirit of the game felt wrecked me. I had no idea obsidian did the franchise justice that much better than Bethesda. Only played it through once and haven’t touched it since
Going through the intro in Fallout 3, and hitting up the school being used as a raider base was shocking. I did not expect all the gore in that building, that atmosphere instantly got me stuck into that world!
Same. I picked up the game at 10 thinking it would be some linear shooter. When I realized the game was actually an open world filled with creepy and unforgiving enemies, I nearly shit bricks.
My brother gave me Fallout 3 on ps3, when I was younger, and I've been a fan ever since.
F3 will always be my favorite Fallout game, next to New Vegas, it was definitely a upgrade in gameplay and a new story set in the West.
The Capital Wasteland and the Mojave are both my favorite places to roam.
Fallout 3 is the most immersive game I have played to date.
Fallout 3 was the first game I got 100% on PS3 including the DLC. I binged the game so much, I didn't play another Fallout until yesterday when I bought New Vegas for £1 second hand.
@@jacobturnerart damn bro im jealous that you get to play new vegas for the first time lol. if you like fallout 3 then new vegas will be enjoyable for you you might even like it more
@@tha.infamouzz Definitely enjoying it!
What a thumbnail matty love the artwork!
I love Fallout 4 as well. I had played Fallout 3, and I was eagerly anticipating Fallout 4. I'll never forget the day Bethesda released the announcement trailer, the hype leading up to the release was unreal. To me, the hype paid off. Years later, I played New Vegas, and yes, it's the best 3D Fallout and one of the best RPGs ever made. Then I went back to Fallout 4, thinking I would hate it after playing New Vegas, but I had just as much fun as ever. I honestly think that the Commonwealth is the best Fallout map, better than the Mojave, but the only way to truly appreciate it is by playing without fast travel.
I tried playing fallout 4 without fast travel and idk man it was ruining my enjoyment of it. I thought I would like it that way but actually trying it out made me realize just how important it is to have a fast travel mechanic so that people can play whatever way they want to. To each their own I’m not saying you’re wrong it just wasn’t for me. It was too tedious to walk back n forth everywhere every single time. I like having it but using it sparingly only to travel the longest distances. Like for example you know how you go to see Virgil out in the glowing sea then go track down the courser, take the chip to dr amari and then to the railroad only to eventually end up going back to Virgil? And then Virgil just tells you oh yea you got the code so now go choose who you want to help you build the machine you need that’s a lot of walking back n forth through the same couple of areas with no fast travel lol
Fallout 3 will always have a special place in my heart. My first platinum trophy and first true RPG. Ill never forget that step out moment! I remember getting the Prima Guide for Christmas after my family saw how much i loved that game. Was able to find all the power weapons and hidden things with that guide.
Fallout 1-2 hold up really well IMO
Wasteland 2 and 3 are way better versions
@@Tampafan33They are much newer games though
@@Tampafan33 They are inferior versions of Fo1 and 2, Age of decadence is the shit for fans of the OG
16:15 Matty, as someone who lives in Maryland, quite close to DC, Fallout 3 was something VERY special to me. Some of the cut content mentioning the Burkitsville vault is so strange, considering I’ve driven through there so often, or how my hometown (Hagerstown) is canonically a massive crater from the Palandine spacecraft. It really steps up the immersion factor for me. I’ve been near real life Raven Rock as it’s irl location is Smithsburg, MD. Fallout 3 is really a nostalgic and close to the heart game for me.
I was lucky enough to be introduced to fallout 2 by my older brothers friend around 2001. Ive been in love with old music and fallout ever since
It's 2008. You just got your first decent PC and Fallout 3 comes out and you're in trance. Shortly after FNV comes out and you start messing around with mods perfecting the games in every way you want. You start doing the same with skyrim and it's godly. By the time FO4 is out you mod the game after a 3-4 test hour run (thanks Gopher) and you get a near perfect game as Matty said back then (I agreed with the added mods). Starfield is coming out and I can't wait to do the same. BGS games man. You either get them or you don't. But for those of us who do, it's truly an event.
Damn straight!
Fallout 4 is trash
@Matty I will NEVER understand why all the games have not gotten a re release, even just 3 and New Vegas they would print hundreds of millions of dollars for the studio and fans might not get super pissed waiting a INSANE 10/15 years between titles........
When it comes to dead money, you either love it or you hate it. I’m right there with you it’s definitely my favorite dlc.
love the thumbnail matty!
Your look at these disc sets and manuals reminds me of my old days of gaming in the 90's and very early 2000's.
GOAT thumbnail dude, holy shit 🔥🔥🔥
When you opened the manual of the Brotherhood of Steel game, with the camera view close on it,
I actually could smell the scent those booklets had back in the day for a second.
Thanks for this channel!
Oblivion was my introduction to BGS. I remember seeing the Fallout 3 trailer and was so pumped to see a post-apocalyptic BGS game. I had never heard of Fallout before then but I've been in love ever since.
Love this setup way more than the earlier one, really helps add the retro tone you were aiming for.
I agree that a Fallout 1&2 remaster would be amazing. I have the physical disc and case for them on PC but never could play them haha
They should let beamdog make enhanced editions of them
I have the first edition of both of them mate. Relics from the past...
Wish i still had them, no idea what happened to my copies. It has been so long.
Brother, this video was amazing! I love history of game videos and you did a great job. I'll be watching this one again and again.
I got into Fallout in 2020, right at the beginning of Covid, after loving TES since Oblivion. I knew BGS made Fallout but just never got around to playing it until later. I’ve never played 1 or 2, but have read up on the stories/lore.
I fell in love with Fallout right away and have sunk hundreds of hours into 3, NV, 4, and 76 since 2020. this may be a controversial take, but I loved FO4 and put more hours into that than any other FO game. I love the game world and the overall lore of the universe. So unique and unlike any of the traditional post-apocalyptic tropes. I’d even be willing to say the Fallout franchise is my favorite in gaming (Starfield may be stealing that title though, we’ll see lol). Really looking forward to Fallout 5 in 2040!
Loved this video, amazing job! Very well curated and put together, can definitely feel the love for this franchise
Just wanted to stop by and say how much I love this thumbnail!
Never played a fallout game I think for more than a couple minutes. But your enthusiasm is incredible. You make me want to try this franchise someday.
New vegas
Excellent video man. What a great trip down memory lane with this series.
Excellent video Matty, Fallout 3 was my first BGS game and ever since I’ve loved ever single BGS game…currently 43 hours into Starfield and feel I have that Fallout 3 feeling all over again!
I’m addicted to these retrospectives man 👏👏
Idk about brotherhood of steel but hell yeah for putting some respect on champions of Norrath and RTA
Very good video Matty. I'm much older and had the same feelings when I got Fallout 3. I missed Fallout 1 & 2. Three Dog made my experience in the DC wasteland more enjoyable. I'm only on console. The mods on Fallout 4 for console were fun to play with. I still play Fallout every month.
Buying fallout 3 as a kid was a monumental moment. I didn’t know it walking out of Bestbuy with two games from the bargain bin just what I was in for. But the moment that slideshow hit and ron perlman started narrating I was hooked. It’s probably for the best I played it as a kid, the same way older fallout fans got introduced to the isometric games. I can still remember the fear I felt going through downtown dc and the museums. I think they did well to capture that ominous music and dreadful atmosphere.
i think that it is the player base that makes 76 special. when i have finished all the new content and would normally leave from boredom, its the interactions with newer players that keeps it interesting. i like to go to an event and drop a bunch of goodies for others to enjoy!
Shoutout to the Fallout 3 gamers who rolled credits before Broken Steel dropped. I’ll never forgot how bummed I was when the game was just over and I couldn’t keep going.
Man, being into fallout 3 and having the GOTY edition was truly an experience. The wasteland is so interesting to explore and concepts for towns were so cool. The DLCs had their own tone but let us see the world around DC and it just felt like being in a real world and being an active part of it.
best wasteland in fallout
Literally just got sucked in to playing New Vegas. The freedom and story are awesome. Honestly makes me worried for future games.
don't be pessimistic - something will come through
@@bolshevi3187 I hope your right. It's getting ugly out there
16:28 This happened to me for Oblivion. Got it as a prize at Dave and Busters, didn’t like it, boxes it for years, then saw the cool 5 Year Anniversary Edition and bought that one and loved it.
Love the passion, bro. I wanna replay these now.
If Fallout 4 and all of its DLC was as strong as Far Harbor it would be a perfect follow up to New Vegas
Bad ass review and history of the series , good job👍
I have family in the DC area, so when I was a teenager and found out about Fallout 3 from a let’s play I was really giddy (in a kinda gruesome way) seeing all these areas I’ve visited almost every year of my life. I was excited with 4’s location too since I have family near Boston too.
Have been replaying Fallout 3 lately so all your love is being echoed in my house
I remember playing fallout 1 in the 90’s. Crazy to see where the franchise has gone since then
Fallout 4.. one of the best games ever created. In my top 3 of all time!
Amazing work👏🏾👏🏾
There were like 10 different times I wanted to re-like this video. Especially the last part about FO4 being co-op.
I thought I was gonna get 3 or NV with a friend😢
LOVING THE NEW THUMBNAIL DESIGN!!!!! 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Great video guys keep it up!!
“Caravan needs about 8 million pages, quite frankly” 🤣
I played 3 along side my old mate in party chat.. those were the days.. swapping tips and helping eachother out with the quests.
I can't believe fallout 3 will be 15 years old in October. It's a masterpiece.
yes I've been playing it through for the first time this month. I find that Washington is a much more memorable landscape than Boston, I guess because Washington is widely recognisable in its architecture and political presence. Upon reaching the Washington Monument, it was quite the sight to behold, the eery green haze of the Capitol building upon the horizon. Subsequent entries into the franchise have greater customisation with guns and outfits (and base building), but the disquieting groans of D.C conjure a bleaker atmosphere - The weapon sounds are also sensational, especially when in one of the many connecting metro stations littered around the world map, the .44 magnum sounding utterly beefy, ripping fools in half. I'm really enjoying the ambience of the game.
@@bolshevi3187damn I am going to buy a ps3 soon I only got a ps4 and I will play these old fallout games I can’t believe I didn’t play them back in the day…
Matty idk if you’ll see this but the thumbnail goes HARD I’m definitely a fan of that
Man seeing that beginning of fallout 3 on the beginning intro to Matty's new retro channel makes my insides tingle
New Vegas is undoubtedly the best fallout game of series, its essentially what a RPG should be
The Combat and Shooting sucks
@@murderman8578yes, but as an rpg it's better than the rest of the series, depending on if you count fallout 1 and 2
@@KFN1A2A3 It's hard to enjoy if I can't shoot properly
*me in dialogue* :
strongly agree
@@Krispysquare NV has terrible hit detection
I still remember the weekly fallout 4 wishlist
Keep going 💪
The production quality was amazing in this video. Keep up the great work Matty!
Again nice recall video Matty,i played Vegas as my first Fallout and i think it can't get better till i played Fallout 2,Fallout 2 gave me big chunk of Context on NV.
I do miss being a kid and getting a new game then reading the manual on the way home. Now I just watch CZcams videos while a game downloads 😂
yes i totally agree. the tangibility of having something 'new' in your hands. I've always been one for physical media (perhaps not with games, perhaps on nintendo ), there is a greater feeling of ownership and connection. Great comment
Personally I loved the crafting and settlement building in Fallout 4.
Not gonna lie. Fallout 4 was my first Fallout game!! Loved every minute of it!!
I started on Fallout 4 and went back and played the others, the originals, 3 and New Vegas, 2 and New Vegas are my favorites, but I still love 4, still gotta play more 3.
Loving the new background Matty!
Being that I’m from Vegas I remember me and my friends in high school absolutely gushing over this game up to its release and after! We all just thought how awesome it was to have a fallout game that represented our city at the time! Man that game is a classic!
I played Fallout 1 when it came out.
I played it on a government computer deep underneath a mountain in an underground millitary complex.
Not joking.
I was in the marines as a dieselrat, taking care of the engines on all the small and medium boats and ships.
There was a request comming in it asked for an egineer who knew how to operate their diesel backup generators.
I don't know who I managed to pi** off but I was sent as a replacement.
The ordinary guy had gotten sick or he quit or whatever so they needed an "intern" to manage the spot until they found a guy with the "right stuff".
Now this entire base ran on the mains grid so the backup generators was never used but they were always needed to be manned just in case.
So all day long I did nothing but sit there playing snake on the central computer.
After a week I had some leave coming up so I checked the specs on the computer I was using and my first stop was the local computer game store.
And there it was on a shelf, brand new and shining, Fallout 1 in all it's glory, so I bought it and brought it back.
Installed it the next day and since that day, that moment the intro movie started playing I have been Vaultboy.
I read the Fallout 3 manual so many times because of how much I loved the game. I made so many builds for my characters with that survivors guide manual. The ps3 one had all the perks and their requirements. I need to play F3 and FNV again!
Really love the fallout series. The lore and world building is top notch. Great video Matty☢️
I live less than an hour from Boston so I got often, and every time I still geek out when I see something that was in Fallout 4 (even though I'd been to the city long before I ever played that game).
My fallout 3 goty edition for ps3 has a massive guide, it has the perks and special system in it
Gotta say Matty love your vids man especially on fallout content. 🎉
Amazing video as always, Matty.
You are definitely my trusted source for anything Fallout.
F03 has easily got the best exploration out of the more recent ones
I beat Fallout 1 for the first time outta high school after experiencing 3 and new vegas, and i decided to give it a shot because truth be told, the look of it didnt excite me since its old. But I was so wrong, I think the story is genuinely good and the ending is by far my favorite ending to any Fallout game.
You should definitely give Fallout 2 a try mate. It's better in almost every way possible. My favourite rpg ever, along with Baldur's Gate 2.
@@s.z.9517 I did at some point, but i got softlocked and never went back, ill go boot up a new game for sure though eventually
It’s 2023 and there’s still no remaster for fallout 3 or New vegas cry😢
I played Fallout NV first when I was a kid and absolutely loved it even though I never actually finished a single playthrough when I was younger. It's what hooked me to the fallout franchise and I've loved this series dearly ever since then. I have all games now and I adore each one.
Tired of the lack of love for tactics. It has some major stuff carried over into lore.
Thank you for this, a true love letter!
I like Fallout 4's disc art since it's kind of spinning like a literal vault opening. It's a gimmick but it's a cool gimmick, and how the center of the disc holder is part of the design
Can’t wait to watch this Matty adores fallout as much as me and can’t wait to see what he has to say about the beginning of the best franchise ever made
I enjoyed Bethesda's Fallouts. As games and for introducing Fallout to a new audience.
Fallout 1 & 2 were an absolute treat!
They were the "real" Fallouts. Bethesda never came close to their disturbing atmosphere imo. Not serious enough. They weren't games for me, they were alternate lives in a post apocalyptic world.
@@s.z.9517exactly Bethesda fallouts feel like a kid wrote the dialogue not Enough mature themes
@@GoatBoat22 Yes because they want everyone to be able to enjoy it, includind kids. Fallout 1 and 2 were pushing you to think as an adult, to grow up basically.
Downloading this banger to watch on my flight back home. Stoked to play Starfield when I get back!!
I hope one day we will get either a fallout 3 remastered or remake or a new Vegas remastered or remake
Fallout 4 taking place in Boston (the capital of my home state) is the reason why I bought it having never played a Fallout game before
Not even a megaton of PC crashes stopped me from sticking with and finishing FO3. The idea of being able to walk to, reach, and enter a building that you see across the map was the most intriguing!
Playing new Vegas right now! Having a blast, haven’t played it since 2012 and it’s like my first time all over again. Spent 13 years cracking Skyrim and F4, yet I have never revisited new Vegas and F3 since I first beat em
Played fallout 4 first then New Vegas, but Fallout 3 had me so hooked because the atmosphere felt so dark but the funny seemed almost light hearted around it all. Love them all
I like that the humor tried to be light hearted because the dark atmosphere was so much stronger, so the humor felt like and giant F-U 🎉.
Will always be my favorite game series
Matty makes really a good point about wasteland 3 and fallout coming together to make a new ISO fall out. I play wasteland 3 as in my mind part of the fallout cannon
Fo3 is a seminal game for me. I went into the game intending to play evil on my first playthrough. I blew up megaton out the gate, and wondered towards tenpenny tower. I was wondering near tenpenny tower and stumbled across a gas station that had a secret underground door that lead to a vault hiding tranquility lane. I stumbled on tranquility lane completely by accident. Subsequent playthroughs led me to understand that I missed a huge portion of the beginning of the game in downtown DC. Still my favorite fallout game (NV is a close second)
Just here to say: that's a fantastic thumbnail that doesn't trigger the shit out of me. Please more of these :)
Fallout tactics was my first. Wow such a great game back then.
Fucking looove how BAFFLED that Enclave trooper was, dude. 😂
I remember going to blockbuster with my Dad looking for a 2 player game to rent and play with him. I must have been about 12/13 years old. The only games I really played at the time were Call of Duty and Fifa. We picked up a Racing game but he also picked up Fallout 3. He wasn't a gamer at all but he said it looked cool. I was annoyed that he picked it up because my small child brain thought it looked 'Scary' and it would be a distraction from the racing game! He played it for about an hour and never touched it again. I decided to give it a chance and I swear to god I must have spent that whole week glued to the PS3 controller.
When the time came to give the game back to the store I made him buy me the Full Game! I got to start all over again. One of my favourite games of all time. I would give anything to experience playing it again for the first time. It also opened my mind to playing more than just Call of Duty and Fifa.
Raul’s shack is from the black mountain quest line. It wasn’t just a random named shack.
I tried playing Fallout 3 multiple times, in 2009 on the PS3 got to Megaton, got bored and stopped. Tried it again in 2011 on a laptop and doing the Wasteland Survival quests, got bored and stopped. The last time was 2013 on an Xbox 360 and played all the way to the end every DLCs, over 400 hours, played it again.
Honestly this video just showed me that obsidian is the goat for making some of the best written games (kotor 2 new vegas) it’s incredible how good they write
You hit the nail with the discovery of the fallout franchise lmfao
