As a gamer I am not a massive online player. I am, however, a big fan of a good story mode which draws me in and slowly but surely consumes many hours of my life. Billed as Bethesda’s most ambitious game ever, and the next generation of open-world gaming means Fallout 4 is the perfect game for me.
I have played the last two Fallout games and I was a big fan of both of them. The only downsides I had found was the games would sometimes be a bit glitchy, crashing at times and objects disappearing and reappearing at random times. They were also, in comparison to other games at the time, not great for graphics. The graphics seems blocky and were not good as you would expect for a game reviewed so highly.
Fallout 4 is the exception to this. The gameplay is fluid and the graphics are far better than the previous games so it means (if you are anything like me and spend hours at a time playing this game) it makes it easy on the eyes.
The game is based around your character (name him/her what you want) waking up in a post-apocalyptic world after having your son kidnapped. You must travel the wasteland to get him back.; you will make many friends along the way but also plenty of enemies.
One of the main new aspects of Fallout 4 is the ability to create anything from a small shack to an entire town with working power, water and crops for farming. All built through the workshop. You build radio towers to attract new settlers and assign them to look after their lovely new town.
With its massive map and what seems to be never ending gameplay it is a game that can be played for days and you will still feel that you have barely scratched the surface.
So, if you need a game to that will make you ignore your family and partners this is the perfect game for you; a truly brilliant game to keep you entertained on those cold winter evenings.
You can buy the game online or visit your local store today.
