Fallout 3 Cheat Codes

5 cheat codes for Fallout 3 on PS3.

Repair Skill Bottlecap Glitch (Infinite Money)

Exploit vendor repair services for effectively infinite bottlecaps.

N/A (in-game exploit)

Find a vendor with a high repair skill (e.g., Moira Brown). Sell all your damaged, high-value items to them. Have the vendor repair them. Buy the repaired items back; the cost to buy back will be less than the initial repair value, netting you caps. Repeat.

XP Exploit (The Pitt - Troglodyte Effigy) (Exploit)

Gain infinite experience points rapidly in The Pitt DLC.

N/A (DLC specific exploit)

In The Pitt DLC, during the quest to collect Troglodyte Effigies, pick up an effigy, then drop it and pick it up again. Each interaction can grant XP. Repeat continuously. (Note: May have been patched in later updates).

Save Scumming (Speech/Lockpick/Hacking) (Exploit)

Guarantee success on challenging speech checks, lockpicking, or hacking attempts.

N/A (exploit)

Before attempting a difficult speech challenge, lockpick, or hacking mini-game, save your game. If you fail, reload your previous save and try again until successful.

Fast Leveling (Crafting/Repairing) (Exploit)

Rapidly gain experience by repeatedly crafting or repairing items.

N/A (exploit)

Collect a large amount of common crafting materials or damaged weapons/armor. Go to a workbench or repair items yourself/pay an NPC to repair them repeatedly. Each action grants XP. With high skill, this can be very efficient.

Infinite Items/Money (Companion Duplication) (Infinite Money)

Duplicate valuable items or anything else with the help of a companion.

N/A (in-game exploit)

Acquire a companion (e.g., Dogmeat). Drop the item you wish to duplicate on the ground. Immediately command your companion to pick it up. As they bend to pick it up, quickly press the interact button to pick it up yourself. If timed correctly, both you and your companion will pick up a copy, effectively duplicating it. Repeat.
