I love Fallout 3 but unfourtunately in my opinion Fallout New Vegas really didn't do anything fresh in the series and was littered with numerous quest/game breaking bugs. (expect to be reloading and find numerous random quest glitches.) Skyrim is probably the better choice here although that being said they just recently released Fallout New Vegas - Ultimate edition. This includes every DLC, (Dead Money, Honest Hearts, Old World Blues, Lonesome Road, Courier's Stash, and Gun Runners Arsenal), as well as the latest patch. I haven't played it but I would assume there are less bugs/glitches then at release so that's a plus as well. And getting all that for $50 makes it mighty tough to complain, even if it is a bit more dated than skyrim.

All in all it comes down to what you like more, killing people with swords, axes, maces, and daggers, or killing people with pistols, rifles, smgs, etc, as well as the occasional melee weapon. Personally Id pick up both and be set for a long time.

The problems with F:NV have mostly been resolved, and Skyrim was just as bad with bugs.

Go with Fallout, it's the better game.

Hard choice.

I'd say get NV complete edition and work on it while waiting on Skyrim GOTY

Skyrim, no question. New Vegas was a dissapointment both graphically and gameplay wise. Other than a few glitches and some horrible load times, Skyrim is amazing.

I really enjoyed both, but if you have to go with one or the other, I'd say Skyrim.

Absolutely Skyrim. Though don't be fooled by everyones hate towards New Vegas. NV is a fantastic game that has a few bugs, but they're so unimportant that it doesn't effect the experience. But in the end, I'd choose Skyrim overall.

do you prefer Fantasy RPG's or Sci-Fi Post-Apoctoyptic RPG

basically the only way to pick one of the two, both great.

I give the slight nod to Fallout for whatever thats worth.

If i had to choose one id probably pick Skyrim, but both are good games. Ive never encountered any of the bugs in New Vegas that I keep hearing about .
