    I dont know which one to get what one do you guys think will be better? Fallout3 was a perfect rating in the official Xbox magazine.
    Give me some pros and cons.

    Thanks

    I think both will be truly great games, I'd go with Fallout 3.

    I'd think Fallout 3 will last longer. Both should be great.

    me either, but I watched some trailers online and it looks good. I may try to get both, for me Fable is a must have, as long as it's a lot longer than the first one.

    No, bro, you really need to play the Fallout series. Fallout 2 is easily one of three best role playing games ever made. If you're only remotely intersted in playing an old-school RPG with a fantastic storyline, one of the best (if not the best) character systems of all time and some whacky, Monty Python style humor, you gotta give Fallout 2 try. It's old, but it's pure gold :up:

    I checked it out on IGN and it looks like I'm in luck, its actually available for Mac! :D I'll have to check it out.

    EDIT: Looks like Fallout 2 is actually on Download.com for free.

    I believe the Mac version is. The PC version is still on sale but it shouldn't be more than a couple of bucks.

    As an aside, if you're downloading it, be sure to download the manual from:

    http://www.duckandcover.cx/fallout2/Fallout2.pdf

    It's one of those games where you'll want a reference.

    wow... Being that I haven't played Fable 2 yet (damn you Microsoft for being on top of the ball so far), all I have to go on is what I've played in Fallout3. It's F'n amazing. AMAZING.

    yeah yeah. here you go. I confused Wasteland for Fallout. It has the same storyline.

    http://www.lemon64.com/reviews/view.php?id=150

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wasteland_(computer_game)

    Wasteland is a post-apocalyptic computer role-playing game first released in 1988. The game was designed by Alan Pavlish, Brian Fargo, Michael A. Stackpole and Ken St. Andre, programmed by Pavlish, and produced by David Albert for Interplay Productions, and published by Electronic Arts.

    Which later became Fallout I believe.
