In the gaming world, no title is as popular or as revered as "Fallout." Set in an alternate future ravaged by nuclear war (and imagined by the 1950s), you are tasked with taking on a wasteland filled with mutants, raiders and irradiated creatures. "Fallout" constantly leads the pack in sales, it's most recent title, "Fallout 4," sold over 12 million copies in the first 24 hours at retail, generating over $750 million in sales.
"Fallout" has become something of a cultural icon now, finding its way into stores such as Hot Topic and even Target! If you're anything like me, you'll know these 5 things to be true if you're a "Fallout" fanatic:
1. You check every nook and cranny for valuable loot, even if the containers are empty
I know it says empty, but you can never be too sure!
2. You listen to the radio while shooting down any enemies in your path
Listening to "Anything Goes" while mowing down raiders into a bloody paste is quite a relaxing experience
3. There's always a settlement that's in trouble, apparently
Preston Garvey, a companion and Minuteman in "Fallout 4," is always there to tell you that there's a settlement in trouble. Don't worry, he'll mark the location on your map for you.
4. Deathclaws are your worst nightmare
When you see it charging at you with the velocity of a freight train, it's time to run the other way.
5. Nothing is better than goofing off after a long day of questing
Whether it be strategically placing buckets and barrels on people's heads or dragging around dead bodies, it's always fun just to mess around in the wasteland.
