See and Oblivion took me 40 hours to get 1250G. But that was admittedly almost a speedrun.

The only time posted for Fallout 3 GOTY was by you and they heavily differ from the completion time of Fallout 3, which were posted by several people.

I got 1000G after 55 hours and the remaining 500G from the DLC took me 20 hours. I did however additional quests that were not achievement related (84 hours is my total playtime and the point where I reached level 30, so you can't say that I did a lot of grinding)
Even if you didn't perceive it as such, but you rushed through the game, just like I did with Oblivion. But I played the PC version before, so I knew what to do mostly.

Therfore I don't doubt that someone can get 1500G in 70 hours or even 60, but 40 sounds like a speedrun, since it's significantly lower than the average.

According to that link, the average time for 100% in FallOut 3 GOTY is 45 hours. I might fall a bit below the average, but that's what averages are for.

Also I didn't rush FallOut! I enjoyed every bit of it. I took my time, explored all the Vaults (which for the most part aren't chievement related) spent time going on murder sprees for fun, etc.

40 hours isn't significantly lower then the average, if you watch game reviews most reviewers got the main game with some sidequets done in 20 hours. The DLC chapters are short, especially Mothership Zeta, and well yea.

Anyway, no point arguing this, there are 40+ hour RPG's this gen....they are just WRPG's instead of JRPG's.

Dude you didn't read what I wrote.

YOU posted those times. No one else so it's not an average time.

However Fallout 3 got votes from several people. It's average completion time (not 100%) is 33 hours. Now add at the very very least another 15 hours for the DLCs plus time for completing the rest of the side missions and getting the remaining misc achievements and the average would easily be at 55 hours and that's only the low end.
