I love both games but I'm going with Fallout 3. New Vegas had better storyline/characters and better combat, but Fallout 3 was more immersive IMO. I got the platinum trophy for FO3 and put over 100 hours in. I think I'll probably wind up doing the same with New Vegas though.
I would recommend getting a spear and shield. It's a good combination to start off with. You can buy a spear from the vendor in Boletarian Palace for 2000 souls IIRC. I'm not a huge fan of rapiers because they are basically spears with less damage and basically no reach.
