For the record, I don't know about the validity of this overlay. There are a lot of discrepancies that would need to be rectified: Fairfax City Ruins, and Bailey's Crossroads (as seen on the game map), specifically. // ProjektTHOR 17:22, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
 * It looks like the simulated real-life area is actually much bigger. The river bends are something of a red herring, as there are similar but larger curves more to the northwest. When you assume that Burke equals Tenpenny Tower (where Mr. Burke lives), Olney is Old Olney (obviously), and Point of Rocks is Raven Rock, then suddenly places like Bethesda Ruins, Germantown, Fairfax Ruins and Andale line up a lot better.
 * Given the scale of locations in DC, it's evident that the Fallout3 map can't be overlaid on top of reality with a simple linear scale; the area becomes more stretched with the distance from the DC area. Sadly (?), I think these few locations are where the similarities end. The road map doesn't match reality at all, except for the few radial streets in DC -- not to mention the overall terrain. I have a friend in Arlington, but it's a lost cause to try and "visit" her house in the game ##Dhromed 19:05, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
