I love both the games, I've clocked many hours just exploring the worlds both games have to offer. But I prefer Fallout 3 purely for the atmosphere it creates. Every time the sun rises or falls is stunning, the grubby cities populated by half starved people are interesting to explore. Scavenging for experience feels a lot more natural in a post apocalyptic wasteland too.
When Free Radical went out of business the game development came to a halt. Apparently when they went out of business the engine and tech the game was built upon was lost. So not only is SW:BFIII circulating development hell trying to be picked up but all that gameplay in the video is gone, it will be built up from scratch. It'll be around at some point though, probably after the hype for KOTOR has died down.
Apparently the demo that was set up over a Lan party at E3 suffered major lag issues. It's a game that is just way too ambitious for today's internet technology.
