Default Fallout 3

If you haven't played it, do give it a try. I find the "Atomic Age into the early 21st century" vibe more than a little distracting, but, whatever.

The real highlights, for me, are the "ghost" radio broadcasts and a single operational data terminal you can find with some typed reports, near the ruin of a police station in a DC suburb that date back to the days right after the war.

For me it's probably as close as we'll ever get to a Twilight 2000 video game outside of the old Paragon Software RPG from the early 1990s. I wish some of the goofier elements (again, the atomic age and 1950s vibe lasting over a hundred years, or the various 50's B-Movie robots) weren't present but whatever. It's a fine game nonetheless.
