[@Silver Fox] I'm considering buying that, but I've never played any of the Fallout games before.

I do not know about 4, but from my experience with 3, you don't really need to play the previous games to play it. There may be references, but they seem mostly to be their own little story arcs in the same setting..

I found 3 fun and enjoyable ^^
