GeoW2's multiplayer is likely to last you longer than Fallout 3 will. Unless you become really engrossed in the game and replay it a few times.

My opinion, Gears of war. Online is the thing for me. :)

Fallout 3 is my GotY. Gears 2 is very, VERY close second place.

I'd say get Fallout 3, you can play it for 60 hours, and Gears 2 online is in need of a patch.

That said, if you like shooters, get Gears 2.

You can't go wrong, they both give mega-bang for your buck, and Gears 2 has the best campaign experience in a shooter, to date. Either Gears 2 or Half-Life 2, anyway.

....it's a hard decision.

I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
