Fallout 3 vs Oblivion from Fallout 3 Walkthrough, Guide, FAQ

moviestar Moderated by moviestar

Oblivion and fallout 3 are quite similar in many ways. They run on the same engine. Which of those two you like more would likely come down to setting. Do you like fantasy, or a post apocalyptic wasteland? 2 VERY awesome games.....Tough choice, no doubt.

If you could ONLY get one, which one would it be?

Fallout 3

veera04 says:

The Fallout 3 is rock. I really love it, y'all. : )

bigblackjack says:

Fallout is way better than oblivion is a pile of wank compared 2 fallout its worst than morrowind

B.J says:

sana ne lean says:

of course fallout is the best it separetes best from rest:))

FallOut 3 Addict says:

Fallout is the best Oblivion sucks ass

RandomFatGuy says:

FALLOUT 3 RULESSSS like oblivion too but prefer fallout

Goldijs says:

Fallout 3. Because oblivion had leveling monsters. AND no AI whatsoever. AND it was lame. But fallout...well, what can i say - war, war never changes.

Sephiroth says:

Fallout 3 for sure! Oblivion is a great game, but I like Fallout 3 better because its basically what the result will be if we ever do get into a nuclear war, which we are very close to. But in the real life its North Korea, not China.

James says:

FALLOUT 3 by a long shot

death says:

totally fallout three oblivion was to much like morrowind

carnage says:

No expaination needed!!!!

Tye says:

fallout 3 is way better that all need be said

adam says:

oblivion is good but fallout 3 has better skills graphics n a better storyline whereas oblivion u start of as an escapd criminal n turn into a hero of an imagination land in fallout u become a hero of america and save your dad and america afer a nuclear war...

jaxx0rr says:

Fallout 3 > Oblivion..
I finished both games but oblivion was just so... boring lol
I allso played Fallout 1 and 2 and they changed the way I see games so maybe thats also why I choose Fallout 3.

Larry says:

Fallout 3 if only for the fantastic rendering of a post apaclyptic wasteland. Before the add-on's I put off ending the game just to wander. Exceptional work.

fallout_master says:

they are both nice games but the fallout 3 g.e.c.k is one hell of an addition. the geck editor is what makes fallout 3 better than oblivion. and seriously i know the weapon tech is insane but its more real then magic(gay). so fallout has it... hands down.

yourmaMA says:

they are both really awsome games and its a hard choice but right now i am more into fallout 3

papillonuk says:

it great... just downloaded both dlc.. and done ancorage... cant wait for the pitt

gorman says:

I choose fallout but really im still 50/50. They are both tied at being the greatests games of all time. Ive spent more hours on them then any other game. I give fallout the edge simply because its newer. I still play oblivion it never gets old. They both hold a special place in my heart.

Nikolai Edvinsen says:

Fallout 3 is my favourite game of all time, and its basically running over with atmosphere.

Joey says:

Fallout 3 because it uses technology instead of magic the future is better then the past.

Tigerbunny says:

Fallout 3 has a much better combat system. The whole AP bar thing rocks. I like ranged weapons, so what are my choices in oblivion? A bow and arrow? That's it? Lame. I like my rifles and plasma weapons, woo! Exploring by foot is much more enjoyable, you might actually run into a town or a random mission. If you get bored you can always go on a killing spree and massacre the whole town. Being able to change the difficulty at any time is also a plus.

genosha88 says:

yes but fallout has better gameplay

Jokersoldier says:

im a fan of both im a huge fan of bethsada i have comppleted
oblivion not yet fallout 3 i would have to choose fallout 3

TheDutchess says:

Are you doing a Fallout3 Vs Oblivion duel or Fallout3 Vs Fable2? Title, description, and choices are off. Anyways Even though I love both Oblivion and Fallout 3 I would still pick Fallout 3. Post Apocalyptic Era is more my style.

lick me!!!! says:

i LOVE the game. i'm hooked. i play on that more than call of duty!!!!!!

dfresh4life says:

thats a stupid question fallout 3 definitly not even a thought in that one if you want to talk to me hit me on xbox live ill be playin fall out
gamer tag dfresh4life

TheSweeney says:

Fallout 3

The Devious One says:

idunno. i got both of them on the same day and therefore just wanted to play them both. i think i would have to go for fallout 3 though as it reminds me of crysis!!!

Tatman says:

Fallout 3 has satisfied my every wish. This game has over 200 hours of gameplay, diverse choice of weapons, over 150 locations, over 50 quests, blood, gore, and plenty of emotional (scare the poop out of you) moments.

Jack B says:

Fallout 3 is one of the finest games ever created. It has a great sense of humor, and far more content than the other two games. Also, killing a mutant by launching a teddy bear from a rocket launcher is just plain cool.

Oblivion

reeves says:

oblivion because fallout is too dull and obivion has more fantastic towns 2 visit. obivion all the way for me

Aaron says:

Both games are superb RPG's. I own both games and have all of their downloads, but overall im a bigger fan of oblivion.

Aaron says:

I have both games and love them both.

lew says:

although fallout 3 is a great game oblivion just has more to offer as there are more areas to search more quests more items more pretty much evrything....

brad says:

oblivion has so much more to offer than fallout and each and every quest/mission is original and not as repetitive as fallouts, also the map is much larger and oblivion looks so much better than fallout

xbox_360_repair says:

I like them both. Oblivion is a little less gross. I'm not
really into all the blood and gore in Fallout 3, but they're
both preety awesome.

xbox isnt as nerdy as pc says:

oblivion cause it bigger and sorry to say it but fallout 3 main storyline is too short + clocked Fallout faster than Oblivion... game play still awsum in both tho

Belial says:

I'd Say Oblivion most definately because of those 10,000+ more mods you can get for it.

Oblive says:

I would say oblivion because the map is at least 1/3 bigger then fallout3 also being able to use magic is the most amazing thing ever and fallout 3 V.A.T.S runs out of ability and you have to wait to recharge and Oblivion has at least many hours of more content.

wayne says:

oblivion

Mikka says:

There is no game like Oblivion

Computer: Retarded says:

Fallout 3 had much better combat and quests, but Oblivion had a much better environment, whereas the wasteland got pretty monotonous. Oblivion also was open ended, and seems to be a lot more mod-friendly. Oblivion also has much more content, and GUILDS!

john16154 says:

I am addicted to fO3 it is amazing in all aspects. but its no Oblivion. oblivion has way more content, choices, n quest

curtintrading says:

Tough choice yes! I'll say Oblivion because I like playing around with spells! I have yet to play Fallout 3. I need a bigger hard drive!

Lewis0027 says:

I beat Fallout in a month, Oblivion took 3 months. Leveling up is fun, why max out at 20, I got my Oblivion character up to Lv 46. Map is bigger and many more quests. More game for your buck.
