The steam winter sale has arrived, and I have been thinking about getting into the fallout series. I really only want to get one of the two games, but I don't know which one would be the better entry to the series.
Thus I end up asking you guys, which of the two deserves my money more?
-
Fallout 3, new Vegas sucked
-
Fallout 3.
-
I would say both. If you can only get one I suggest Fallout: New Vegas. For some reason that game just has so much more draw and things to do compared to Fallout 3. Which is saying a lot because I thought Fallout 3 was pretty cool.
-
New Vegas is better
-
-
New Vegas is the true sequel to Fallout 2.
-
Everyone is saying new vegas, but Fallout 3 still leads on the poll. Leaves me confubsed.
-
Id go for New Vegas, Fallout 3 was just too easy even on Very Hard not to mention Fawks is Fawking invincible but I also prefer the story to NV has more depth
-
New Vegas has more guns, crafting, 4 endings, survival mode and is generally more challenging than Fallout 3. Fallout 3 on the other hand has a waaaaayyyyy better atmosphere and setting. The broken steel and point lookout dlc are also kickass.
-
GET GOTY OR ULTIMATE EDITION Don't play it without dlc
-
New Vegas
-
Fallout 3 shat on the legacy of the previous games. It had a great setting though. New Vegas is more in line with the previous games, had multiple factions that had personality, and is ultimately the better game, even though the desert isn't as good a setting as the Capital Wasteland.
-
NV offers more and is more intricate I guess. FO3 has a more interesting storyline and setting. They're both great games that have something the other one doesn't have. NV has better dlc I think, Lonesome Road is just awesome.
-
I dont know too much about these games, but heres a tip. By the more current one first, so you can master the older one faster when you get it.
-
Fallout 3 for mods and stuff. Plus they have a joint mod between the two fallouts. New Vegas has a lot better everything except in story. Personally, fallout 3 if you've never played either of the two. I like New Vegas better but F3 is just better if your new to fallout.

Edited by Logfish111: 12/21/2013 7:32:48 PMNew Vegas Mainly due to the story and characters. I love FO3 but it's main story is one of the worst I have come across in any form of entertainment. It basically has no characters either. NV on the other hand, has a solid main story, some awesome factions and plenty of interesting characters, especially some of the followers. In NV your choices also have a considerable impact on the world whereas in FO3, hardly anything mattered. On top of that, NV also makes a lot more sense in the overall FO universe, FO3 tripped up on this at a number of points. NV also has more content. The gameplay is pretty similar in both games, with a few improvements in NV, so it has the edge on that as well. In fact I'd say the only thing FO3 has over NV is the setting.
-
PC or Console?
-
The only thing Fallout 3 has over New Vegas is that it has a better/more interesting setting to explore. Other then that, New Vegas does everything better.
-
New Vegas winning over 3...what madness is this?
-
Wait for them to be a daily or flash or community choice sale. You can probably pick up the complete versions of both for $5 each.
-
For setting and quests, fallout 3. For better gameplay NV.
-
New Vegas, better game play than 3, and more enjoyable than 3 too.
-
Lore wise, Vegas. Setting and overall gameplay wise, F3.
-
New Vegas. While Fallout 3 admittedly has a more interesting setting, gameplay wise, New Vegas exceeds it in just about every way.
-
New Vegas is a lot better especially with mods
-
Both, just get both while they're both cheap, they are both excellent games.
