Fallout 3

Fallout 3 is a apoclyptic action roleplaying game. XP is gained through combat, completing quests, finding locations, picking locks and hacking terminals. And that's it. All experience points go into a single pool and when you level up you get to choose how you want to distribute your skill points. These points aren't tied to your actions at all, so you're free to play as you want and then allocate the points to whatever skills you find most important. Each time you level up, you'll also be given the option to choose a perk. These bonuses can do everything from give you a permanent skill or stat boost to reveal locations you haven't visited yet on the map. Fall out 3 was released in October 27, 2008.
