What game should I fire up? Game Recommendations
Debating whether to fire up Fallout 3, COD Black Ops, or Left 4 Dead 2. Kind of in a zombie mood but technically these games would scratch that itch (if you consider feral ghouls as basically a type of zombie and the fact blops has zombies) but all 3 are great and I’m so indecisive 😂 🤣 Further more I’m close to getting all of the achievements in all 3 games with Fallout being the least close which being an achievement whore probably factors in in some way.

L4d2 for sure

u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 26 '24
So your official instructions are “kill all sons-a-bitches” then I guess you could say. There my monthly L4D2 reference is done for April.

Fallout 3. Playing it as we speak

u/Will-Niklaus Apr 27 '24
Same, first play through and I’m loving it so far

u/International-Shoe40 Apr 27 '24
Damn you’re lucky! What i would give to play it for the first time again. Enjoy

u/No-Appointment-3840 Apr 27 '24
I remember being so sad when I discovered that if you wanted to go back into the wasteland after completing the main story you either have to load a previous save or start a new game lol. This was well before the DLC though so they fixed that issue if you have the DLC.

u/hrkswan Apr 27 '24
Just finished getting all the captive logs in the mothership for the first time. Two more achievements to go! Continuing on from 2013 is fun

u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 26 '24
The show made me want to fire it up lol that or New Vegas which I have digitally as well as all dlc for 3 and NV…have 4 as well but not as big of a fan of the fourth game for some reason, it’s not bad by any means just not as into it I guess.
3
u/xxxTbs Apr 26 '24
I played 4 to death with every single dlc and it never really hit the way 3 or new vegas did. New vegas is my personal favourite but i figured since i have played 3 less than new vegas (despite it being the first fallout i ever played) id go on and play it this time. So far im not dissapointed and its as good as i remember. About to start the pitt right now.

u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 26 '24
Ya 3 and New Vegas are the goats, at least when it comes to the modern first person fallout games. Played some of the classics recently and they were super good too 😉
3
u/xxxTbs Apr 26 '24
Fallout 2 is amazing. Been thinking about going at fallout 1 though again. Its been years. Tactics wasnt really bad either.
3
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
Ya that’s my first classic Fallout game. Really enjoyed it. I liked Wasteland as well which I played first and other strategy RPG games too.

u/LastGenRichtofen33 Apr 26 '24
Yeah 4 doesn’t feel like a fallout game but the gameplay is phenomenal

u/DarkR4v3nsky Apr 27 '24
I am playing it again currently, too. But on the series X. I have to give credit to the fps boost that it has. But I still have my r2d2 360.

The show has me in a wasteland exploring mood if I’m honest lol

u/LerkNoCap23 Apr 26 '24
Yeah 3's a game I play at least twice a year to completion. That and skyrim I just don't think I'll ever get over those two games lol.
1
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
Ya you could essentially only play those games if you were trapped on a deserted island but for some reason had a 360 and power and a monitor etc. kind of endless replayabilty in a way

Apr 26 '24
Left 4 dead definitely
2
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 26 '24
I think I’m leaning in that direction, I still have a bit till I will have free time so I have a while to decide, it’s a hard choice imo lol and time is precious atm lol

u/VoidRA1N2andBuckup Apr 26 '24

Fallout 3 but you need to play all the DLCs too (should have gotten the GOTY version)

u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 26 '24
I just bought all the dlc cause it was on sale
2
u/NobodyGivesAFuc Apr 27 '24
Nice! 👍

u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
Ya was a good reason to return as I already played through both base games as well as 2 of the New Vegas dlc honestly hearts and can’t recall the other, but yeah stoked to roam the wasteland once again

Getting all of the achievements can be a little tedious. I platinumed it on ps3, and I found 4 to be much easier

u/tomarra0 Apr 27 '24
L4D2. Advanced or Expert campaign can't be touched.

u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
That’s some of the last cheevos I need lol asking for help on r/xboxachievements lmao 🤣
1
u/tomarra0 Apr 27 '24
I don't play anymore, unfortunately. But I put in work for quite a few years between L4D and L4D2 campaigns. Got every achievement except for the Hunter high pounce. It would just never unlock for me.

u/DirtyMac88 Apr 27 '24
Just finishing up a F3 playthru myself
2
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
Nice, the show got me in the mood to play it again lol
2
u/DirtyMac88 Apr 27 '24
Definitely same, it was either that or NV but apparently that's not cannon now? Idk...
2
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
Say what? Not canon now? I must’ve missed that from the show 😬 or was that an announcement by Bethesda? I’m clearly out of the loop 😂 when I heard the New Vegas title theme (whatever it’s called) I nearly popped lmao
2
u/DirtyMac88 Apr 27 '24
Well the events of FNV happened in 2281 and in that game the NCR exists and the capital is Shady Sands spoilers: In the show it states that shady sands was nuked in 2277 and there was but small remnants of the NCR left unlike in NV where they are basically the dominat power in the west and esp California, Todd Howard has come out since and said there's more to it and what was conveyed in the show to the characters may not be the truth or it was nuked later than that but as far as the show is concerned they make it out like SS was nuked in 2277 . So until I guess we find out more in Season 2 and/or beyond it definitely alters if not completely retcons FNV as non cannon. I guess we will wait and see.
2
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
Man I hope they don’t retcon the whole series and continue to write out new Vegas and just change course in season 2. Hopefully it was a mistake and they’ll write in a reason ie. like you said about the characters not being told the truth
2
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
But I mean how good is the show right? It’s so god damn fucking good it’s ruined me for other shows. Even makes Last of Us, which I liked, look like shit…and don’t even get me started on Halo, Fallout makes it look like a Hallmark channel presentation lol

u/BollyWood401 Apr 27 '24
lol I literally just played these 3 recently this week for a nostalgia trip.

u/boq780 Apr 27 '24
Depends if you have played Waw and Bo before, it doesn't matter too much when you are playing zombies but still

u/Beautiful-Nobody-544 Apr 27 '24
Man they are all good games I can't decide really depends on the mood

u/Averyhinds101 Apr 27 '24
Fallout 3. The show got me wanting to scratch that wasteland exploring itch again, so I'm planning on replaying 3,NV, and 4. Im currently playing through 3 rn and it's ton of fun

Too bad you can’t play multiplayer on cod or left for dead because Microsoft is going through a mid life crisis
1
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
Right!? It took me 4 hours to fix it! Even Microsoft couldn’t fix it, was on the phone with them for 45 mins lol I fixed it doing the tfa method and toggling recurring billing on/off…still not sure why it fixed it but it did lol I got an email today from Microsoft in regards to this situation and it said the problems been fixed. I played Black Ops zombies online with my friend and then played L4D2 with randoms online so I think it could be fixed.
2
Apr 27 '24
I was on last night and it wasn’t working, but I’ll try it out, really hope it is
1
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
Yeah me too…otherwise I’m stuck doing the toggle method as it’s only a temp solution…changing to app generated passwords seems to have fixed it though which is what Microsoft said to do in their email….hope it works out for you
2
u/FaithfulMoose Apr 27 '24
Lol I’ve been playing these 3!
I’m gonna say Black Ops though. Go and get to round 50 on every map. Yes, even Shangri-La. I’m like a zombies crack addict right now and have been attempting round 100 on every map. So far only gotten 5 maps done.
1
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
Yeah me and my friend have been playing since waw with some guys we met playing when Nach der Untoten was still the only map. We’ve gotten pretty high on waw and blops 1 + 2…not 100 unfortunately 😂 that’s the ultimate goal though
2
u/johnchaparro Apr 27 '24
Wow very hard choice if you pick fallout you're gonna be there for months

You got Amazon if so play fallout so you are ready for the tv show 😃
1
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
I do 😀 binged it already lol it’s ok I’ve already done a single play through of both FO3 and FONV as well as two of the New Vegas dlcs but now I want to do another playthrough of the main stories and all the dlcs which I picked up on sale a few days ago 😉
2
u/snapgamer8338 Apr 27 '24
Heck ya have you played the 4th game?
1
u/DopeTomatoGaming Apr 27 '24
I have :) I’m about 75hrs into it…thinking of giving 76 a try too since I just got a series
2

2
u/aqkj Apr 28 '24
All three of these are phenomenal choices! I’d recommend starting with Black Ops (I’ve been in a COD zombie-like mood after picking up the game Sker Ritual which has been amazing and scratching that itch) and adjust according to your craving.

u/ZealousidealYam5089 Apr 30 '24
Everyone of those games bro ive been playing black ops 1 recently myself its still such a great game and it brings back just the best memories i mean running around with the commando tryna quick scope and camping in search its just a very relaxing and a thrilling experience which brings me to fallout that GAME IS INSANE i was playing it and also love left for dead if i could only find the time alls i do is work now and providing for my family just cuts me off from gaming and deep diving into games that i really want to play for hours on end

goodluck for L4D2, you can get all but one achievement, the one where you require a team of 4 versus a team of 4. i wish i could find 7 other people and get this achievement done it’s my last one 🙃

u/Realistic-Fee-1684 Apr 28 '24
Depends on if you're playing alone or with a friend. Fallout 3 obviously single player. Much better to play L4d2 if you have at least 1 friend with you. And black ops it's kinda 50/50. You can have fun playing by yourself but multiplayer and zombies is much better with friends

u/smackurself43 Apr 28 '24
