Fallout 3 Walkthrough and SuperGuide
Last Words
Well thats about it for the game. This walkthrough wasn’t designed for you to find every area, or every skillbook, but to find and do most things in the game. Also how you go about the areas or kill the enemies are up to you, but there are many ways to go about doing things.
Feel free to email me with problems you might catch, such as directional mistakes, spelling, a skill book that is in an areas that i didn’t mention, you get the idea. Don’t email me with “why did you do this first, or that”. This is my walkthrough, not yours. You don’t have to do the areas in the order I put them in.
Now that you have played and learned the game, the next time you play you can make it a little tougher or different. Play on hard mode, cut back your intelligence so finding skill books is more important. Limit your weapons or try playing the game not using the VATS targetting system.
Thats about it. Hope you had fun with the game, and good luck on your next adventure.

what do you do in the level to find your dad i have been on that level since last year and i still dont know what to do if you know tell me because i want to see what you do not just stay on the same dum level
Why raise the barter skill so high? It seems worthless is there a reason, is there something cool to earn, that's why you raise it up?
This walkthrough is a GREAT way to start off the game. The pure freedom in fallout 3 makes it amazing, but it can make it horrible too. This guide starts you off slow. However, I wouldnt use this walkthrough to play the ENTIRE game, because its alot more fun to find places people on your own. Theres just one more flaw in this guide:
it fails to account for DLC that became available after the original release of the game.
Adding all 5 dlc's would probably double the size of this guide, and certain things in this guide (what perks to get, etc.) could REALLY screw you over. Best example?
If you get Broken Steel DLC theres a perk you can get that raises all your SPECIAL stats to 9. If you hold off until then to get the bobbleheads, you could have a maxed out player. Be careful when using this guide, and do your research about what DLC can do for you first
hmmm whats the intellegence for? i cant find any reason to use it i normally get str agi and endu
How do I jump on the back of Army Trucks? I can't seem to get at the ammo boxes on the back of the truck!
im currently doing the quest "take it back" and for some reason when i leave the citadel and begin the journey. liberty prime does NOT move. i have no clue wtf is goin on. did i miss something?? his diagnostics on the terminal shown 0 power to mobility. so how the hell does he destroy the energy field barrier on the bridge?
Now I would' ve used ChickHen to flash custom firmware to his psp but he updated to 5.55. So I was wondering if the Half Byte Loader program would be able to run the 5.50 D3 installer at all, since I noticed the program is beta and apparently as many problems left, long enough to flash firmware without bricking his psp.
I am REALLY REALLY grateful that you put this very extensive and detailed walk through. I literally follower it to a T, and everything you said happened. I even blew up the cars in the order. I still enjoyed the game with a walkthrough and I just wanna say thanks A LOT!
(You like the super mutain of Fallout3 Walkthroughs) naww but thanks!
what perks do i pick after level 20? you dont give any more.
I got the reserivist's rifle from Arkansas in minefield… not from drifter.
