Posted September 6, 2015 Tough call... I finished both, but if I was forced to choose "just one", I would go with F:NV... you can have multiple endings depending on the faction you choose, plus the DLC's from what I heard (never got to play them on PS3) were pretty good.

Your right, the DLC adds a couple of 100 hours to the gameplay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted September 6, 2015 If you have both and don't mind running mods why not use a tale of two wastelands it lets you play fallout thee in new vegas's engine. You end up playing both not sure how it works with the transition between the two haven't finished playing three with it yet but it is more stable and like beautiful.

Posted September 6, 2015 Fallout 3 all the way New vegas is garbage absolute garbage. ^^^^^^ Looks like 50 50 here.. Lol Will Fallout 4 continue the story from Fallout 3 or Fallout NV? New story, no continuation. Though Fallout 4 is geographically closer to the Capital Wasteland of Fallout 3 than the Mojave Wasteland of New Vegas. Also, there were things spoken about in Fallout 3 that may be in Fallout 4, though it would mostly just be things like factions/locations, etc. For instance, one of the side quests in Fallout 3 involves hunting an android for the Institute (post-apocalyptic MIT) which is located in Boston. Fallout 4 takes place in Boston and appears to not only include the Institute, but also androids. Bethesda will probably have throwbacks to both though. If you have the cash, I'd suggest getting both. You have plenty of time to complete them before Fallout 4... and they'll definitely cut out a huge chunk of the wait time. "A picture is starting to form here... I wonder if it's accurate? Some pieces don't quite seem to fit. Or maybe I just don't like the way it looks."

Posted September 8, 2015 fallout 3. Fallout new vegas is only good if youve played fallout3, because wihtout a frame of reference new vegas actually kinda sucks. Fallout 3's atmosphere and story will get you going, then youll realize you want more features which fallout new vegas provides but new vegas has a worse world to explore and play in. New vegas has superior DLC though and better modding. So, try fallout 3 first. Fallout 4 will reference fallout 3 a lot, and likely will completely ignore new vegas.
