Mass Effect or Fallout 3
Well i am thinking about getting Mass Effect
2 or Fallout 3. Issue is iv never touched
Mass Effect 1,so not sure if it would be a
good idea to just jump into Mass Effect 2
(i don't have much money to spend on games right now)
So it comes down to Is Fallout 3 better then Mass Effect 1 ?
Or is Mass Effect 2 so good that it would be better to buy Part 1
and get Mass Effect 2 later

Mass effect 2
1 is ok but not so good as 2

Sure , the story of 1 will be somewhat explained at the beggining of 2

I barely touched ME1 (I dislike the gameplay), but FO3 isn't bad.
The biggest issue is that you don't get free-roaming after you defeat the campaign, so you'll need to do all sidequests before the final mission if you want 100% played.

I should update this but all my effort went into writing this lousy excuse.

FO 3 imo.
I've never played ME2 but if it's anything like 1 I probably wouldn't like it.
They changed this with Broken Steel didn't they?Originally Posted by SnOwBunZz

Well the combat is revised to FPS/Crysis instead of traditional "need items to restore HP" kinda thing.
Some people might say this is a bad thing though.

Wait for Battlefield BC:2, or even Medal Of Honor.
If you're looking for more of an RPG, wait for Resonance Of Fate.

that's probably the best choice

It's so incredibly over-hyped.

Resonance Of Fate looks ****ing sweet.. i just seen the trailer now

It releases around the same time as FFXIII , so it's your call.
I'm probably going to rent them both before making a judgement.
BF:BC2 is top priority , though.

I bought mass effect the first one and i kinda regret it. I like doing everything in a game but i got really discouraged when i talked to a npc and i went through over 20minutes talking to this npc before i gave up and exited the game:S

Fallout 3 GOTY edition (which has all the DLC) should be cheaper than ME2.
I only recommend ME2 if you've played ME1 and like games where the emphasis is on storyline and characters more than on sheer gameplay.

Fallout 3, has a lot of mods to keep you busy.

If you like RPGs, do yourself a favor and get ME1 and 2.
If you're more of an "open world" gamer that likes tons of mods, then get FO3.

^ What he said.
Mass Effect = tops 30 hrs gameplay
Fallout 3 = Countless hours.

I don't have any of the DLC's so I wouldn't know.

Yes.. Broken Steel alters the ending of Fallout 3 to allow continued play after the end of the main quest line
