I was just about to post a poll for this exact same topic, kinda wish you wouldve added a poll but oh well.
I initially was leaning toward fallout 3 because oblivion is probably my favorite game all-time, but then i remembered how attached i was to fable 1, and had it have been longer it would be my number 1 instead of oblivion. With the addition of being able to have kids and a dog in fable 2, and more things to do in the game i truly think fable 2 is going to be the game you sincerely become attached to and never want to leave.
I dont see fallout 3 as being a game that makes you love it, you may have become addicted to oblivion like i was and put in over 100 hours, but i never felt attached to the game and like it was part of my life. Fable however brings you into its world and you really feel like you are that character and its really the only game in the history of gaming to bring that feeling.
You know when you are walking through a town and you hear the school boys chant "look its maleficus, slayer of dragons" and you feel a sense of pride/accomplisment and its just really cool. Well now that you are able to have a dog that follows you around and is completely loyal and a wife and children that you can come back to i really think that fable 2 could be the best game of all time, not just the best rpg.
If fable 2 can take the core elements of fable 1 and improve them and mainly make the whole experience longer it is very plausible that it could be the best game ever. This may sound like im some fruit, but you cant deny that you grew attached to the original fable, assuming you were good and not bad.
Im really excited for both games, but fallout 3 i dont think will have the heart that fable has, and so i think fable 2 wins.
