The Steam price of Bethesda’s post-apocalyptic RPG Fallout 3 has been slashed. For what we’re guessing is a limited time, you can purchase the lauded follow-up to the beloved franchise for a mere twenty-five bones. That’s half-price and a spectacular deal, folks. Fallout 3 is a well-supported game with hours upon hours of Wasteland hoofing and violence. Plus, it has zombies (or at least that universe’s equivalent, Ghouls). Zombies equal awesome. ALWAYS.
Listen, we’re all about this deal and this game, obviously. How many of you are still straddling the fence? Was the price holding you back, or is something else? What's it like to be insane?
On a slightly related note, if you're an Achievement whore, the PC version of Fallout 3 has your back. As noted by Giant Bomb fifty billion years ago, all you need to do to get easy Achievements is bring up the console and type "addachievement x" Instead of the "x," put in the number of the Achievement you want and boom, free Achievement.

Plus, I just bought ("just" being two months ago) the collector's edition for $60. *hugs his Vault-tec Lunchbox*
"Call me when they remove SecuROM from the Steam version."
"remove SecuROM from the Steam version."
"SecuROM Steam version."
lolwut???
Saw the price drop and came. Bought it as soon as I got home. Downloading as we speak, (33%, fuck!)
@MowDownJoe:
The Steam version never had SecuROM.
Not anymore. :3
*rechecks Fallout 3*
Huh... when it came out, I was sure it stated that it also had SecuROM as DRM in addition to Steam, like Crysis currently does.
Ahh, well... I'm still happy with my 360 version.
There's a motorcycle mod. A fucking ride-able motorcycle. With flamethrowers on it.
Radius Zero: Yeah some mods really are that sweet. If you cherry pick a bunch of decent mods it can totally change the game (for the better).
and I will buy it now
Also, waiting for the GOTY edition coming out later this year so I get Fallout 3 and all the expansions at the same time.
