I was in love with Fable 2 a week ago. I thought it was one very epic and masterful RPG.... Until Fallout 3 released and wiped the floor with Fable 2.

Fable 2 is still amazing, its just that Fallout 3 is lightyears ahead, its that good

meh. Fable 2 is all I need. I don't really like RPGs like fallout 3 because of all the constant stat monitoring.

When I stabbed a sword through the back of a guy and watched him scream as he looked at it coming out of his stumic. I was in love

You are missing out. If you thought starting off as a kid in Fable was awesome, Fallout raises the bar in the aspect as well. You start off with your head coming out of the mother's "you know what"! :P

yea its a more serious and mature RPG, whereas Fable is a more laid back, comedy, "dont take it seriously" type of RPG. But you gotta love the freedom in Fallout.

I know theres more freedom in Fable 2 than in 1, but theres still paths, walls, etc that you cant cross, and the world in still pretty small and linear, whereas Fallout... Well its Washington DC!

Fallout 3.

Fable 2 is no better than the first, jobs are boring....meh. It's basically a kid sized version of an RPG. Weak, weak weak.

I sold it to get Fallout actually.

Forget Fable 2 and get fallout 3. Fallout 3 is well worth the money, and fable is just worth a rent if that!

Depends on what you're into I guess. Fallout has a lot of the same elements that Oblivion did apparently and I was never a big fan of that, but I love Fable II. It might not be as long or as well done, but it certainly is a lot of fun to play. If you can I would just buy both. They're both great games everyone should play.

I have both, and I've been playing both quite a bit, but I HAVE to recommend Fallout 3 over Fable 2. Fallout is just such an incredible, incredible game, and it'll last you alot longer as well. Definitely Fallout.

Aww. I wish I had the money for Fallout 3. I have Fable 2 and I really want Fallout 3....And Gears of War 2....Grr. I wish I had money...

But yeah. It sounds like Fallout 3 is much better than Fable 2. I wouldn't know from experience though...

Apples - Oranges.

Fallout 3 is one of those hyper serious games that provides you imaginary freedom, that people who loved oblivion drool all over, and the rest of us fall asleep during. It's a good game, if you like that whole "RPG-lite" thing, that is actually an open world action/adventure with mild aspects. Fallout 3 is your typical "mainstream gamer pleaser", created entirely to make people nerdgasm. I have not enjoyed it thus far, despite receiving an advance copy.

Fable 2 is more about comedy, it has more rpg aspects, you can do quite a bit in it, like purchasing stores and marking prices up, because you are evil. It's not serious, the main storyline is short but amusing, it doesn't take itself seriously, and it's intended to be a game, not a nerdgasm.

I greatly prefer fable 2, but, I simply don't have 20 hours a day to invest in fallout 3, to apparently "get the most out of it". I also hated oblivion.

I have not played either of them but if I were to choose one it would be Fallout 3 because the same company that made Oblivion made it. Even though, I'm still gonna buy Fable 2.

I am enjoying Fable at the moment, but I REALLY want Fallout3. I will get it later when I have explored Fable a little more.

Ok personally I like Fallout 3 better. The whole Post-Apocalyptic feel catchs my eye better than fables. Im definatly not into the whole rpg games but do enjoy this one. But if your a gamer then both is your answer.

And just because there is alot of content in Fallout doesnt mean you have to play 20 hours a day. Comparing Fallout to Fable is like comparing Stephan King to Walt Disney.

Fallout 3, however both are great games. I'm only shortly into Fallout 3, but I've already finished Fable II & done all the side quests that I found entertaining & it didn't take very long to do so.

Yeah I didn't like Oblivion either, however I'm loving Fallout 3 so far. Also do you like it when games are very short or something??? You are trying to say something negative about Fallout 3, but instead you point out a major reason why the game is so great. At least that is true with every other gamer but yourself.
