I'd say mine is Fallout 3.



How strange

i just started to get into fallout 3 again and i was watching a lets play of it

Fallout 3. Mainly because Liam Neeson voice acts as your father.

FO3

if you ask me, exploring a destroyed city > wandering a desert

I'm not a fan of the style of the first two games, never even heard of Tactics


Never played 1 or 2, or Tactics, I loved how they captured the post-apocalpytic feeling of having to travel from isolated town to isolated town in Fallout 3, communication was scarce and supplies had to be scavaged. The environment really felt like it had been exposed to some serious radiation and the city looked like it really had felt the blast of a nuclear bomb.

I could go on and on about why I loved it but I have never quite been able to put my finger on actually what I loved.

This poll isn't fair as only like 4 or 5 forums, including me, have even played all the Fallout's so clearly Fallout 3 is going to win.

All of them, besides 3. The story was far to linear and short.
EDIT: The original 3 (1, 2, and Tactics are on steam for 20 dollars in a bundle, very nice for all of you FO3 fanboys to see that the map in NV is actually MUCH larger then tradition says it should be.)

New Veegas. I haven't played Fallout 3, so I'd probably enjoy it more.

I like New Vegas, Fallout 1, 2 and Tactics. Fallout 3 was okay, but it doesn't deverse the name Fallout. Also forget all those Bethesda fanboys that bash on the older fans. Bethesda was like "Okay interplay, you can make a Fallout MMO." Some time later Bethesda says "You can't make a Fallout game, you can only make a game with the name Fallout in it." then interplay lost the right to the mmo and the Bethesda fanboys started cheering on the Fallout wiki.

Villages are very isolated in the older games. In Fallout 3 has many inconsistanings in the lore. One example being jet where the creator of it was said to have been murdered and the recipe was lost and forgotten. But instead in fallout 3 the stuff is all over the place. Supplies in the older games were very rare, in fallout 3 i can collect assault rifles all day and repair them.

Anyway if you like then you like it. Eveyone has their tastes.

Pretty much. Who was that guy with the Tardis avatar and kept bashing the older games because they didn't like turn based combat.

I tried Fallout 1,2 and Tactics, but I disliked all three.
That style of rpg doesn't fit well with me.

So, out of the two modern Fallout games, my favourite is Fallout 3.
It had a cool storyline and was really rememberable, and the DLC was really good.

Fallout New Vegas was good too, but the boring desert cowboy theme pissed me off after a while, the storyline wasn't as enthralling IMO, and the fact that you couldn't continue afterwards pissed me off to no end.
I know the reasons, in that there are so many choices and outcomes, that you'd need a massive game to follow on with all the different results, but even so, I can't help but feel disappointed. I dislike the idea of my actions in a non-linear game suddenly meaning naff all and having to restart.

Atleast Fallout 3 had the Broken Steel DLC and let me continue.

Also, I didn't like the New Vegas DLC at all. I haven't found any of them to be interesting or as fun as any FO3 DLC, and none of them have stuck with me as something to remember.

I agree with that quite a bit, though there are some memorable moments in Dead Money and Old World Blues.

I had just watched Django before starting New Vegas so I loved the cowboy theme.

I was just amazed at all the various outcomes the story can predict.  Also, hardcore mode made it a real desert.
