Fallout Monopoly is something we wish we could buy

by David Hinkle on Aug 29th 2011 11:30PM

Guys, if you're wondering if your significant other is The One, there's only one question you need to ask yourself: Would he or she go through the painstaking process to create something as awesome as this Fallout-themed Monopoly board just for little old you? If so, put a ring on it!

This was created by deviantART user PinkAxolotl, who swapped out classic Monopoly stops such as Baltic Ave and Park Place for locations from Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. The Go space has been changed to G.O.A.T. and the Free Parking space has been changed to the "Please Stand By" screen. The only similarity between this version of Monopoly and the classic? Your cousin Brian is still guaranteed to throw a hissyfit when you eventually trade all your railroads for a ham sandwich.

That's freakin sick!

@Silent Ice

I know! Sunglasses for only 18 bucks!

@fyertergft
Do you guys accept bottlecaps?

Truly.. incredible.

Guy is very lucky. I would buy one.

Looks great.... but only makes me want Fallout 4 even more.

@Special Agent Steve

How about we get a Fallout 3 before we go wishing for a 4?

@(Unverified)
Huh? Go play New Vegas. That IS fallout 3, as far as I'm concerned. Its bloody brilliant.

Do...Want...

I will kill my own family for this.

@blackangel209 thats not healthy

@blackangel209

Negative Karma for you!

@blackangel209

But would you cannibalize their corpses after you loot them?

@blackangel209
This is why I take breaks from the Internet.

Best. Thing. Ever.

It actually looks funnier that the game itself, I mean, it really...

(awaits flamestorm)

@eNriqeu "Funnier?" So, are you saying that it looks like you would derive more humor from this game than a Fallout video game, or were you trying to say that this Fallout Monopoly game looks to be MORE FUN than a Fallout video game and just using bad grammar to do so?

@Dukk420

Let me try to correct it.
My tablet supposedly does it for me but it doesn't always work...

It actually looks funnier(more fun if you pefer, I googled "funnier" and I didn't see anything wrong with it) than the game itself, I mean, it really does...
And by that I am implying that Fallout is boring as ****.

And forgive for my lack of "good grammar", english is my third language and I'm nnot perfect at it, I thought anyone could easily spot it 'cause of my name.

BTW, since you act like a di**, how many languages do you speak?

@Dukk420
Wha? Nothing wrong with the grammar there. It's just a way of speak. A comedic pause to further express their point. Anyway, Fallout IS a funny game. In fact, I find Fallout's quests a lot deeper and f**ked up beyond imagination more than Elder Scrolls quests. ...actually the game is just plain sick and sinful.

@eNriqeu

you fail.

nobody wants enclave blvd. it seems :(

Hey, hey, hey....hey...I was actually trying to figure out what you were saying since what you typed was unclear. There is a difference between "funnier" and "more fun", they mean two different things. It doesn't really matter to me how many languages you speak, we were talking about English. I happen to speak 2 languages, but English is my first so I know that does make a difference. If that came across as me being a dick then I apologize for offending your gentle sensibilities. Anyway, just chill out, put on your big girl panties and learn how to accept constructive criticism!

I've never played Fallout, but that does look pretty ¡fantastico!

OMG Luckiest boyfriend ever! XD

That's awesome. I love the bottlecaps.

That really is a work of art... I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Woah that would be an awesome board game to play. I can see it now; "Oh no, you were captured by Super mutants, Go to jail" and "pass start and collect 2 stimpaks".

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY.

I love stuff like this, but it always kinda rubs me the wrong way a bit when it focuses entirely on Fallout 3.

@wcarnation

Get used to it, it's going to outshine the original Fallout games because this is one people actually played. Therefor, this is the game that they want to see, not the origins. It's an entirely different audience, a new era if you will.

@Punkrawk Bbob

"this is one people actually played."

That's right, Fallout 1 and 2 were unpopular crap, that's why they spawned sequels and still sell to this day!

@(Unverified)

They didn't sell. That makes them unpopular. The people who bought the property were people who were fans though and saw financial opportunity. Most people who picked up FO3 had never played 1 and 2 (and never will).

So while they may be awesome gems, they are unpopular still. Like BG&E or Psychonauts of today. Hell, even Grim Fandango if you wanna stick with PC platform.

@Punkrawk Bbob

So....sequels were made to unpopular games that didn't sell? Logic, you fail it.

One, they were successful.

Two, hell they continue to be:notice here in 2009 that they STILL manage to break into top sales charts:

http://www.shacknews.com/article/58467/weekly-pc-sales-zeno-clash

Three, sales =/= popularity. Windows Vista sold pretty well, wanna tell me people liked that? How's Menudo fare these days, that disc still getting hundreds of thousands of spins? No one has ever-or will ever-cite Fallout 3 as influential or memorable, unlike Fallout 1 and 2.

TLDR:you're a whiny bitch who couldn't figure out the first two and assumed that no one else liked it. Sorry buddy, they were successful, hence the sequels and enduring reference among gamers and designers.

Whoops, wrong link:

http://www.shacknews.com/article/58609/weekly-pc-sales-go-go

makes you wonder how no one thought about this before

I want that like yesterday.

coolest post in a long time!

awesome job, too bad monopoly is a terrible board game.

Ben traded the properties for a ham sandwich to John, and Joe was the one who got upset. You got it all backwards.

Was a little disappointed to see it was all made with stock assets -- still good execution on getting it in physical form specially detail like the bottlecaps.

No matter what the board looks like...Monopoly will always be boring.
