They both have that 1920s-1950s feel to it that I really liked in Bioshock, I'm thinking of getting Fallout 3 for the PS3. Does it really have as many glitches as the critics say? How good is it exactly, I'm getting it at Circuit City for $44 is it worth it?

IMO its oblivion gameplay on bioshock environment! If you like that combo, go for it!
Fallout 3 has way more content in comparison to many games on the market. But when we compare it to Oblivion, the game screams for more. I love it, and have spent 50+ hours with Fallout 3.
Comes down to really whether you prefer RPGs or shooters. Only thing they have in common is poor gun play. And that's one of the reasons Fallout3 is so much better, it doesn't rely on shooting that much thanks to it being a RPG and having VATS. It's also open world while Bioshock is rather linear.
Fallout three is the second best game of the year IMO (with MGS4 being #1). It is glitchy, but not enough to keep you from enjoying the game. It's easily the best RPG of the year, and you'll probably get at least 60 hours out of it during your first run (I clocked in at 62).
[QUOTE="Skittles_McGee"]If you have a 360 get it for that. Anyways about the only similarity is that they're in similar time periods. Thats it. Ummm...No, BioShock depicts alternate timeline of the past, while Fallout 3 takes place in year 2277, so there's 300 years of gap between them.

Other than music from the same period (Fallout's soundtrack was more eclectic than Bioshock's too, although I like Bioshock's better) and the rpg systems (the games have very different ones, I might add) the games are not at all similar. Both fantastic titles though, and I'd highly recommend both. Bioshock, if you're looking for something fresh, is the way to go. But if you're a fan of Fallout and/or you loved Oblivion, you'll probably enjoy Fallout 3. I personally like Bioshock more, but of course it's up to you to make the decision.
