Does Fallout 3 run on Windows 8.1?  I've never taken a deal so far because it says it's not optimized for Win7. So I fear it won't work with 8.1 either...

I believe it requires editing some game files to get it to work. I saw it on the Steam forums.

The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it; the iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched, when death and despair leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate, but thank the Builder for the trials that shape thee.

I have 8.1 and I have played Fallout 3 on it. It's been a while since I have and it does ring a bell that you have to do some slight tweaking.

I have played it on windows 8.1. Remember to install the windows games live thing, or else it won't work.

Not sure about 8.1, but it's really unstable on 7.

Uh, what? The game runs perfect on Windows 7.

If you go to the steam store page it says not optimized for windows 7 it's an old game. Some people don't have problems some do.

I've never heard of any issues with the game that can't be very easily fixed. There should ultimately be no problem running it on W7.
