When Fallout 3 came out in 2008, I was very disappointed that the game had a first or third person view rather than an isometric top down view. As a fan of the first two games, getting the shooter-like experience of the long-awaited number 3 was bordering on blasphemy. Although this bothers me to this day, I must admit the game is excellent! But the point of view wasn’t the only change, as every Fallout game is centered around a single US city. So where does Fallout 3 take place?
