I'm really excited for both, but I feel like only focusing on one RPG for this time being. Fable 2 or Fallout 3? They both look like quality games, and so far Fable 2 has gotten some great reviews. They are both set in a vast world with many side quests to explore. I've played Oblivion (makers of fallout) and it was great; I havent played Fable 1, but I heard it fell kinda short of many people's expectations. I'm probobaly going to get both sometime this year, but for now, I only want to focus on one. All my friends are getting Fable 2, but I dont think it matters as much.

Which do you guys think will be better? I personally think Fallout 3 will be.

Fable 2, deffinatly. I've played both and just finished fable 2 half an hour ago, it's a great game and well worth buying. Proberbly one of the better games i've played this year, some minor put downs but the general gameplay and stuff make it well worth it.

On the other hand, if wandering through boring wastelands, collecting junk and rather bland RPG and FPS action is your thing go for fallout 3..

Both. But Fallout 3 would win out if I was forced to choose.

how do you know its going to be rather bland and boring you havent played it? I haven't played either, You really can't compare either but if you're interested in length im willing to bet that fallout is longer, if you're going for combat i might go with fable, fallout looks alot oblivionesque in that dept. Personally i would read reviews and watch vids to make up my mind because no one here will ultimately help you because there will be many people for boths sides bashing the others game, and if you take either sides advice and don't like the game it's your fault for listening to them.

I was in the same boat as you are, I didn't know which one to pick at first but then I had to make my mind up. I searched the Internet and found a lot of stuff on Fallout 3, I like the Shooting System and the whole subject line of Fallout, Also the videos on the Marketplace Helped. So i Pre ordered Fallout 3 LE at my local EB and decided to wait for Fable and probably pick it up in the new year or something. I see i'm not the only one that picked it over Fable.

im torn man...fable 2 has a heart and personality that no other game has, and it really is an awesome unique experience that rivals any other single player game ever made, but in the same breath fallout 3 looks extremely promising. fallout's graphics, atmosphere, size and scope are all above and beyond anything we have ever seen. honestly, they are completely equal in my book. fable 2 is going to be a more personal and memorable experience whereas fallout 3 will be much longer and better looking and just as solid. it's really hard man.

Fallout 3 because the chances of a Fable game disappointing me is far greater than a Fallout game. I've never played a Fallout game.. and I heard the series is legendary.. while Fable 1 was a HUGE disappointment.. An extremely flat game, with lack of depth despite having one of the best atmospheric environments.. especially the spooky ghoulish night-time settings.

Fable 2...Fallout 3 doesn't look that appealing to me. Gears will satisfy my shooting needs.

Fallout could have stayed turn based and I would still consider it a must buy. And it looks like Fable 2 plays just like Fable so I'm not buying it at all.

Fable 1 was awesome and Fable 2 looks awesome but can wait til winter break. Fallout 3 is where it is at for me.

Fallout 3 is going to get better reviews. I don't know if that helps any. It depends if you want to play by yourself or with other people. and if you like shooters.
