Cant decide what game to get!

I'm getting two games this fall, and thats all I can afford to get, and I'm having a bit of trouble picking my second game.

My first game is most definitely going to be Gears of War 2 cuz i played the first one, and it rocked. I'm having to pick between 3 different games for the second game im getting. Should i get fallout 3 (played oblivion and loved it), fable 2 (looks awesome but didnt play fable 1), or banjo (i love mario and kameo)?

Any other recommendations for games i should get instead? Thanks for any advice or info guys!:D

I would definetly go with Fallout 3. Like Oblivion it will be a great game to keep you busy in between big releases. Oblivion kept me busy for a couple of years off and on.

Fable 2 looks really intruiging cuz of all the options it gives you (marriage, kids, you can buy all property etc.),but i heard its single player quest is only 12 hours. Thats kinda on the small side.

Fallout 3 has been confirmed to have over 100 hours of gameplay and i kinda need a game that i can play for a while cuz the next game i will be getting after these two will be Resident Evil 5 in march.

Fallout 3 will have more playing time that Fable 2, but it's also shooter oriented like Gears.

Base on this though imo:

Fallout 3 - Shooter RPG

Fable 2 - Action RPG

whichever you prefer.

I'm getting Fable 2. I don't know if you mean you're afraid of the story or if you'll like the game when you say "I haven't played Fable 1" The storys don't have anything important to do with eachother and if you liked Oblivion, you should like Fable 2.Phoenix534

Umm, no? Fable 1 and 2 both share similar artistic style and gameplay themes. Fable is a very basic entry level RPG with little to no real character class and customization other than "good/evil" and the simple melee/shooter/caster classes. I loved Fable and will probably buy Fable 2, but to say that someone who liked Oblivion will like Fable 2 is a stretch. Oblivion's biggest draw was the non-linear gameplay and customizable depth, things not planned to be present in Fable 2 on the level that Fallout 3 will be.

To be completely honest, I don't believe I could decide which one to buy.

Either Fable 2 or Fallout 3, I am in the same situation and I am choosing Fable 2.

Get Gears 2 and Fallout 3gta4_2112

An even better idea would be to get GOW2 and Fallout 3...then go home and beat GOW in 5-8 hours and exchange the game for Fable 2. Or do the same thing and try and find a used copy of Fallout somewhere. There are always used copies of Bethesda games on the shelves because people buy them for their popularity not realizing that they are incredibly huge RPGs.
