Does FO3 GoTY Edition Work on 64 bit Windows 7?

Im not sure reading the tech req page it does not mention it but I have seen a lot of forum posts saying that it only works with 32bit...Surely Bethesda would not do this!?

 

yes it does, I have it and im running Wn7 64bit

 

Works fine here.

 

Thanks guys, think I am going to buy this disc version. Expensive though! But I heard the DLC is some of the best in the industry and adds a lot to the game.

 

yep, its worth the money!

 

Works fine, the DLC's are great too, the only one i didn't really like was Mothership Zeta, it got a bit tedious.

 

I don't have any of the DLC, but Fallout 3 (retail disk version) works for me on Windows 7 Home Premium x64.

 

I bought the Steam version and it works great, they also removed Games For Windows LIve, which is a huge plus. The DLC is good too, my personal favorite was Point Lookout. I had heard Mothership Zeta was bad, but I found it ok, level design was a little odd, but still fun. At least the DLC changes that ridiculous ending.

 

Seriously!? I think I may buy it again just for that!

 

If your playing through the game again i highly recommend NMCs texture pack, the difference is night and day to standard graphics.

I used the performance pack on the system in my sig and it works wonderfully, can take some screenshots if ya wish.

 

Yeah, now it is just an option on Steam, no longer mandatory. XD Should have bought it on sale, I got it for $19. I thought why not? Even though I already bought the Collector's Edition. Bought Oblivion GOTY as well, even though I already have it (Not DLCs though).

 

fwiw i have had nothing but issues with this. it was locking up at first then i used the fix by adding a line to the config file. then it worked fine while i was in the vault as soon as i got to the megaton and did all of my business there, it crashes every 2-3 minutes. i cant find a viable fix as of yet.

 

I know there was an issue with the game handling quad core systems...when I started playing I would get random freezes every 5 min or so. I googled 'fallout 3 quad-core fix', found a solution and it went away.

 

i have an i7-720QM, and I have not recieved one crash since the beginning, I finished the game already @_@

 

i would love to play this game but i crashes liek every 5 mins. i tired everyfix available, but it crashes, i sen the game back i guess im moving on the KOTOR. its a shame

 

I don't remember experiencing any crash on m11x, and I played through all DLC except Mothership Zeta.

Amazing game.

 

I've had plenty of crashes with my ATI 4870 X2, but no issues with my 9600 GT in my laptop.

 

Try the Fallout 3 Tweak Guide:

TweakGuides.com - Fallout 3 Tweak Guide

Go through the three "Advanced Tweaking" pages which mess around with the game settings .ini files. Hopefully, some of the tweaks might fix your game crashes/freezes. It's worth a shot, don't miss out on Fallout 3, it's a good game.

 

Btw did you guys install the latest patch 1.7? Because I did and well just a heads up. "D

 

yeah i just bought it was version 1.7.03 or something similar, im gonna check out the tweaks page, see if something there works, id really like to play it, i really enjoyed the 45 mins i played already, i was thrilled with killing that girls dad =)
