Yeah, I know. Everyone probably thinks Fallout 3 is old. Well, I have New Vegas, but I prefer Fallout 3. Anyway, in your opinion, what is your favourite quest to do on Fallout 3 and where can you find it? I'm in a position where I can easily finish the game, but I want to try to do as many of the quests as I can, and I'm having a hard time finding some. Thanks.

Is new vegas not very good?
I haven't played it and won't because killzone3 comes out in less than a month and I prefer games with online capabilities. I think the best mission in fallout3 is a tie between the first and last missions.

In New Vegas there are more weapon and ammo options, such as the ability to have hollow-tipped bullets or regular bullets, which seems a little bothersome to me. It doesn't have the "flair" that Fallout 3 had, meaning it basically looks like a cheap rip-off of Fallout 3. The map isn't very large, and the landscape is very bland. I suppose it would be a good game to someone who had never played Fallout 3, but if you had, you would notice all the flaws in it.

Thanks bro.
That sounds pretty cool. Are the graphics a step up?

I have played and platinum-ed Fallout 3. :)
Of the numerous main quests and side quests it offers, there's nothing really worth mentioning for me.
Fallout 3 at first was just tad, bleak and slow game but after a few hours into the game, it grew on me and liked it.
I am planning to get Fallout: New Vegas in the future too but what's stopping me from getting it now is because of its frequent game hang-ups and freezes. I hope Bethesda will totally fix Fallout New Vegas.

I never really got into Fallout 3. I dunno why, since I really enjoyed Oblivion, but Fallout 3 just wasn't fun for me. That said, I did really enjoy the mission with Mr. Burke where you choose to turn him in or blow up Megaton city. I, of course, chose to blow up the city. Because being evil is so much more fun than being good.
I've heard New Vegas is really buggy and doesn't play well at all because the game keeps crashing all the time while people are playing. I dunno if that's true or not, but I don't know if I want to buy another Fallout game on the PS3 when I didn't really enjoy Fallout 3. I don't have the money to risk it.

I really enjoyed everything but the main quest-line. I agree that 3 was better than New Vegas. New Vegas just doesn't have the character that 3 had, even though it does have more cool features. Another person commented on the ability to change ammo in New Vegas. I really liked the concept, but in execution it did not seem to work well. Hollow point rounds are useless against armor, and almost everything in the game has some armor it seems like.
I guess my favorite quest in 3 would have been the vault where everyone was trapped in a virtual reality world and you had to defeat the guy who trapped them there. Sorry I cant remember the name of the vault. Another great one was in the top right corner of the map, where this guy declared his family farm a sovereign country. I think it was called the republic of dave.
Really If you are looking for stuff to do before you finish the game, just wander in an "organized" manner. Tons of quests will just jump out at you.
