    Farcry 2 or Fallout 3?

    If you had to pick one, which one would it be?

    I will have to buy both because they both look like great games but if I HAD to pick just one to buy, I think it would be Fallout 3. The atmosphere of the game has caught my attention the most and I've spent a lot of time playing Oblivion in the past, so I have high hopes this game will be made to the same standard or even better! (I hope) It was a hard decision though as both look good enough to possibly be GOTY. Apart from the PC Gamer review score plastered all over the internet, I'm looking foward to seeing other reviews on both games.

    Sorry if this thread has been made before, I didn't come across one with the recent threads or searching.

    Re: Farcry 2 or Fallout 3?

    Fall Out 3 for the story, atmosphere and general style, it looks so good. Far Cry 2 looks good to but I'm not that moved by it cos it's narrative looks rather weak.
    "The less you eat, drink and buy books; the less you go to the theatre, the dance hall, the public house; the less you think, love, theorise, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you save – the greater becomes your treasure which neither moths nor rust will devour – your capital. The less you are, the less you express your own life, the more you have, the greater is your alienated life, the greater is the store of your estranged being." Karl Marx

    Same as above. Far Cry 2 might be good for a quick blast, but Fallout 3 is going to keep me happy for a very long time

    Fallout 3 without hesitation or doubt....

    Bethesda have proven their worth with Oblivion, which I'm still playing.

    Far Cry 2 will still be bought, it just may stay on the shelve for a few weeks 1st.

    Re: Farcry 2 or Fallout 3?

    I think Far Cry 2 is a bit of a sleeper - i reckon it's going to be a heck of a lot better than expected and that Fallout 3 may well be a lot worse than expected..

    I'll buy both because i'm an addict.

    Fallout 3, but both do look good, although Fallout 3 wins it for me
