Fallout 3 was this generations greatest game. Skyrim got boring and repetitive to me after a while because the story just wasn't interesting.

 

[kanedagame]

I'm playing Skyrim now.

 

[Gemini]

Skyrim by its self no, Skyrim with the mods yes.

 

[Rick Spanish]

Man.. I've been playing that game for over a year, and I haven't even started the story.. There's just so much shit to do...

 

[john blackcorn]

im gonna have to give skyrim a shot, never played it. but uncharted 2 and 3 win my vote for best video games of this generation cant wait for the movie adaption

 

[garyeasleydaking]

Skyrim beat Fallout and COD?! That's a fool....

 

[Gemini]

I couldn't get into Fallout

My 5 would've been

1)Skyrim
2)Mass Effect 2
3)Batman: Arkham City
4)Red Dead Redemption
5)Uncharted 2

I just finished Red Dead Redemption last week(I think). John is back with his family doing menial tasks like shooting crows, rounding up cattle, delivering corn and shit. Is there something else that happens after that or is it one of those games that lets you keep playing after you've beat it?

Fallout 3 was this generations greatest game. Skyrim got boring and repetitive to me after a while because the story just wasn't interesting.

Skyrim has about 300 hours of game time, there are alot more stories than the main one, Fallout was good but skyrim is better

 

["THE MAN"]

Best of generation before we moved on to next Gen? GTA V not even out yet.

 

[Twim3000]

Red Dead Redemption

Never finished Skyrim. Got boring and as an archer I whooped ass easily. All they did was replace the repetitive Oblivion Gates with Dragons. Fallout kept me on my toes at all times.

assassin's creed...the 1st one...I'll probably be the only one saying this...but I loved playing that game

 

[SM0k3]

Man.. I've been playing that game got over a year, and I haven't even started the story.. There's just so much shit to do...

Co-Sign, Bought this game 11/8/11 and I'm still fucking around with side quest -- then this fucking Falskaar mod comes out that adds another 20-30+ hours of gameplay for me to put on my list: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/37994/

this game has content FOR DAYS!!




I agree that Fallout 3 has a better more captivating storyline though along with New Vegas.

 

[GhostWriter]

I should have gotten Skyrim for the PC. I picked it up not reallly knowing what to expect for the PS3...
