I had the original version of Fallout 3 a while ago and I stopped playing after a few days. Admittedly, I started a quest that was too much for my character, and I gave up. With the complete edition of Fallout 3 receiving a price drop and Fallout: New Vegas out, I really want to give Fallout another shot. I hope that my opinion will change just as yours did. If only I could find my copy of Fallout 3 to try again.

Yeah I went wrong with Fallout 3 the same way I think. This time I've really taken time getting armour and being careful and the whole experience is different. That said I found Vegas much quicker and easier to get into..

I tried playing Fallout 3 recently and couldn't get into it at all. The start was too slow and somehow I just didn't 'get' it. I traded it in after about 2 hours play.

Anyway I decided to have another crack so I picked up Fallout: New Vegas cheap and guess what? I absolutely love it. The start is better (for me) and now its eating up my life. I am levelling up and finding stuff and new places and having a great time. Weird really.

Anyone else had a moment of revelation like this with this game or any other? Also I know other people didn't get on with Fallout 3 so I would urge them to have a look at New Vegas.
