Im not sure about the current differences, but IIRC at the time they were better framerate and MSAA for the Xbox 360. Since the wasteland has quite a few sharp lines if you dislike frame-rate drops or aliasing you may be better off with the Xbox 360 version.
I hated Oblivion too, but I absolutely loved Fallout 3. I put in over 100 hours already and thats with just one playthrough and without the expansions. When I come back to it, im sure im going to drop another 200 hours in easy! 
If theres one thing I can say about the game is that for an open world title, the atmosphere is absolutely fantastic. I completely immersed myself in the lore of the game, the music and everything! If you loved the dialogue in Mass Effect theres a good chance you'll appreciate the dialogue in Fallout 3 as well.
edit: @ Reasonable, its unreasonable to panic in a game like Fallout 3. A reasonable person always comes prepared and can deal with anything. 
Tease.
