Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas

[ShenmueAddict]

Anyone a fan of these superb games?

seriously, these 2 games are like my new Shenmue 1 and 2

I say this because not since mue 1 and 2 have i pumped so many hours of gameplay into a video game! , oh besides perhaps Resident Evil 5, that game rocked, but that was after fallout 3 when i was waiting for new vegas to come out

I played Fallout 3 to death and then did all the DLC too, not sure how many hours i put into it, well over 100

and New Vegas, i am STILL playing, have not completed it, not even started the DLC yet, and i bought it on release day Oct 2010 i believe

They are just awesome games, i love the levelling up, armour, weapons, quests, the hundereds of interesting side storys and NPC's. Fucking great games, most interesting for me since Shenmue definatly!
(Fable 1 and 2 were also great, but not as good, and Fable 3 is a fuckin let down)

Also i just love the whole concept of an apocolypic world, which was perfectly done is Fallout 3, not as good in New Vegas (ruined Washington DC was just better) but the games kicks ass anyway so i dont mind.

Roll on Fallout 4!!

my gaming until that comes out will probably be Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, which ive purchased but wont play until ive 100%'ed New Vegas, because i have a feeling skyrim is gonna be huge and absorbing game

Played a Fallout 3 for many hours, so probably completed it around 3%. It's fun but it's too big for my liking. Spending hours exploring but finding nothing is offputting. Saying that it has a lot of good too. I have New Vegas on standby too but havent started it.

I'm a huge fan of all the fallout games (Including 1 and 2 for the pc which were release late 90's)
It's possibly my favourt game series as a whole (even through 3 is a let down after playing the pc games)
The game is just so Shenmue like. The fact that you can do almost anything. Heck, I wouldn't mind if Beth took the rights for Shenmue (even through I would prefer Capcom to)
And when you say that F3 is too big. The story itself is just way too short, I managed it in six hours lol.

Fallout 4 ftw

^ Indeed Fallout 3's main quest is very short. Its kinda like the same length as the original Fable's. But if you explore the whole world and do all the side quests and DLC's it makes the game longer

Fortunatly they fixed that problem with New Vegas, which is much longer, especially with all the side quests
