Havent played FFXIII, but Fallout 3 derserves the crown.

{vomits}

Both Oblivion & FF13 deserve to be double the sales away from Fallout 3 before it infects them with dullness!!! lol


Now Oblivion I have played! I found it very difficult to stay with that game for any serious amount of time, maybe it was down to the fact it took 5.5Gb of HDD from me when I needed it most, it wasn't long before I deleted it from the HDD.

But its definatley one I will have to give a second chance, will be getting a 500Gb HDD soon, so I shall have a go at it again then.

I still stick by what I said; "Havent played FFXIII, but Fallout 3 derserves the crown"

How to do you see New Vegas performing sales wise?

Another oblivion hater  

I LOVED oblivion, it was my first Elder Scrolls game & everything except the story was amazing in that game, EVERYTHING!! The Dark brotherhood was amazing! Please give it a second chance. It was the only game I played on PS3 from like April 2007 to the holidays of that year!

So I was obviously looking forward to Fallout 3 but it really bored me on the other hand, too dull & not oblivionlike.

I dunno how New Vegas will perform, the worry is that people might see the title as a spin-off & not buy it in droves. Also with Halo Reach, COD:BO in the holidays it might be harder for it to sell. It'll do really well, but  I don't think it'll get the number Fallout 3 got.

If it wasn't for the fact that Bethesda made Oblivion, it probably wouldn't be getting a second chance. For me Fallout 3 proved what Bethesda are capable of, so it shall get a second chance to impress me..Lol

Thats what I really loved about Fallout 3, that dull, post-apocalyptic, depressing, yet at times extremely uplifting mood it carried throughout the game. I loved the whole storyline in FO3.

It was my first ever RPG game, so I will always think on it very fondly.

Yeah I was thinking along the same lines; people thinking its a spin-off. But I'm hoping it does really well for itself.

I for one will be defiantley getting it..
