Fallout three whats all the hype? I dont get it

Okay, Fable II and Fallout Three, to me, Fable II seems so much better because your not playing in A GARBAGE PILE....
And everything you do in Fable determines the look on your character..
Fallout three to me just seems stupid... I mean who wants to walk around in a landfill? Please elaborate and point out my stupidity because EVERYONE says Fable II is crappier than Falloutsquirt270

lol wow your just a lil late, the hype died as soon as the board stopped filling up with the given topics. and referring to fallout 3 as waling around in a land fill with no pressing argument???

Excuse me Mr.Troll maybe the reason why your running around in a destroyed and messy world is because the world was blown to ashes by nuclear war learn to read Mr. Troll!

Fable II better then Fallout 3 wow hey look I kicked a puppy now I have horns sticking out of my @$$ hey how about I slaughter an entire town for no apparent reason and it's okay I won't die I'll just come back to life with some scars on my body and keep slashing.

Look Fallout 3 is a great game there is no need to explain why it is so good to someone who does'nt have an open enough mind to have an unbiased decsion on the game from the start.

i agree i had fallout 3 for one day and i hated it, i returned it actually for fable 2 lol. fable 2 is so much better in my opinonfeer12

Your loss buddy.

I'm not going to attack you, I'm not going to laud you with how bassackwards you are, etc. etc. Some people don't like certain games, no harm no foul.

If you want your hand held throughout a game that is rediculously easy, and want your floating castles/pretty character please stay in Fable II.

Fallout 3 is clearly beyond your palette.

Sounds like someone is trolling about a game they haven't played.DJSAV_101

so true. and then now that you want it to be a bad game, when you play it you will nitpick tiny things to prove your point. sorry sir you are wrong. I loved fallout3 but hated fable 2? why you ask? because its my opinion.

It is the very nature of the environment around you that makes the game so compelling. That is my opinion of the game world, at least, and you are entitled to your own opinion, but when you just throw out negative terms like "garbage pile" and "landfill" then I think that you are missing the point of the virtual world. If you actually played a bit of the game, then you might understand the reason behind the hypothetical future that is Fallout 3.

Their both crappier than craptastic. jrpg's ftw.bad_fur_day

JRPG's have had me throwing up inside my mouth right after FFVII/Star Ocean.

:(

people who dont like fallout 3 havent played it, or they just dont have the attention span for a game that actually has more than 10 hours of gameplay in it.

-fallout 3 is a post apocalyptic world showing humans trying to survive and adapt to a world beyond crazy

-a great in depth story line

-tons of characters weapons enemies, action, should i go on? what else do you need... come on

Fable 2 is like.. walking around castles, royalty stuff basically, a much better setting IMO than a waste land... But I dont knowsquirt270

The fact is, you can't say that a game is bad or that one game is better than another simply because of their settings. That's like saying Lost Planet was bad because it was set in a snowy environment and you don't like snow, or that you hate GTAIV because you have an intense dislike of cities. You can't say Fable 2 was all-around better or more fun because it was set in an environment you personally preferred.

Rather, you have to look at how the environments are created. I have Fallout 3 and I have to say that although I originally doubted whether I could stand that bombed out wasteland, there's actually a lot of detail and variety there if you look and i really love it. Can't say anything about Fable 2 b/c I don't own it, though from the previews I've seen and my experiences with the first one it's pretty nice too, although in a much different way. It resembles a setting out of a fairy tale or fable (gee, who would have thought it?) and is not really meant to look gritty and realistic (a la Fallout 3). So if that's what floats your boat, ok, just don't go citing that as a reason why one game is better than the other.

P.S.: And to anyone complaining about VATS in Fallout 3, nobody says you have to use it. It's perfectly possible and sometimes easier to go without it, so you can't complain that it makes the game worse or anything.

fable 2 is over before you even know it...

and after you beat the game theres really nothing to do since your all powerfull and every thing is so easy

and i theres no replay value because the only thing you mite wana replay the game is play as bad or good, wich doesnt really change anything excpet your looks and the way how ppl react to you(screaming) and there are no harsh consequence to it. (my opinion) and you cant even make your guy look like the dude from the comericials the "flamed up dude"

and you really cant have a proffesion like being a mage or a gunslinger or just a plain swords men.you end up being everything.

while in fallout the hole good/bad will effect you all the way through out the game, every body has a name, and if a person(civilian) is killed they dont spawn back and you guys may think the vats system is silly but its actually pretty cool and very usefull, you see ppls head blowing off in slow motion and stuf

I didn't like Fallout 3 all that much. since I've bought it, I've only played it like twice. thinking about trading it in. or selling it to somebody. but IMO Fable 2 is GREAT! I've had a lot of fun with it since day one! :Dorb_03_2006

Fable 1 wasn't very good, and all my friends who rushed out and got Fable 2 beat it in 2 days and said it wasn't worth it and was just as overhyped. Not saying it's not good but Fallout 3 has alot more to offer and the troll is obviously too young to understand it, or just feels like acting like a 12 year old..

and as for JRPGs.. the best ones were in the 16 bit era, alot of the new ones havn't interested me near as much. Something about 3D graphics makes them seem alot cornier..

t lol i just didntl ike it[QUOTE="KamikazeDonut"]

Your loss buddy.

Because you passed up on a superb game and probably thought it was boring because you did'nt know what to do..Fable 's still a good game though.

Clicking what body part to shoot? LOL If I want something that feels turn based I'll play Final Fantasy, if I have a gun I want to really use it. Fable 2 imoMaboroshi0083

yeah, you cant even dry hump the air in fallout 3, total crap :roll:

all the "choices" in fable 2 seemed too... idk... forced i guess

to be honest im not sure what exactly i distaste able fable 2, its like its so big, but i really didnt feel compelled to search thru it.

ill try explaining it this way, fable 2 is like a toy store, its got its cool toys like rock em sock em robots; the story. then they got the video game section; side quests, family. but alot of the micromanagement for you buildings, your family, your dog, the towns people, all that feels like baby toys, it just feels so shallow to me. and since thats a big part of the game i didnt enjoy it so much.

maybe in fallout 3 you cant interact with your world as much (that doesnt mean you cant), but it sure is a hell of a lot better world to explore, what it tries to do it does better IMO.

i just think technology is to primitive as of now to give me what i would want from fable 2 (i still liked it tho, but i love fallout 3)

NO ONE HAS SAID THIS YET!!! fallout 3 is NOT fun from the start. In fact i thought it was horrendously boring.... but once you start leveling up it becomes AMAZING! i LOVE it. I might even enjoy it more than oblivion. But i still think oblivion is a better game. I tried fable 2 but i couldnt get into it... it was... so shallow.georgeverity

Thank you someone understands.
