If this game is only the shadow of the first two I will need to play those. This is one of my favorite games so far this gen. I've spent more than 30 hours just exploring and then I look at the map and discover I haven't even seen half of the wasteland yet. Great game!

I wouldn't be jumping into the original 2 games if you are truly enjoying this one, IMO.  Fallout 3 only shares 2 things in common with the originals.  That would be setting (post apocalyptic US) and name, that would be where the similarities stop.  To enjoy Fallout 1&2 you would probably need to enjoy slower games, the turn-based gameplay is more similar to SRPG or JRPG games then the FPS/TPS of Fallout 3.
