Need help choosing between two games
New Xbox owner here.
I love RPGs, so both of these games are RPGs.
Should I get Fable 2 which is on sale for 44.99 at Best Buy? Or get Mass Effect, which is on sale at Blockbuster.com for 20.xx?

Hmmm. They're both good games. Mass Effect is deeper, Fable 2 is more straightforward and more fun to just mess around with. I'd probably pick Mass Effect since it's got a much more interesting story and a more interesting protagonist, but I'd caution it might be frustrating. I freakin hate the combat with your vehicle. Compared to that transport vehicle, the Warthog controls like an exotic car in Burnout.

I would bypass them all and go for the best game of the year Fallout 3. If for some insane reason you hate fun or have already played that one then i would go with Mass Effect. I have played all 3 and think that Fable 2 is the worst of the 3. It is still a good game but of the 3 it is my least favorite.

I didn't like Fable at all so i have yet to give Fable II a shot.
Oblivion should be found for very cheap and it was a wonderful game that i spent over 90 hours playing.

If you're more of a story kind of guy, go for Mass Effect.
If you like action and diversions, Fable 2 is your bag.
If you like a huge sandbox with lots to explore, Oblivion/Fallout 3 should be your choice.

I tried to find Oblivion :GOTY, but it was either not in stock, or they still had the high price on it (59.99).

Late to the thread, but make sure you got Fallout 3 at Target (or pricematched) since it's already down to $40 there. It's a steal at $60...

Re: Need help choosing between two games
What's the cheapest price anyone has seen for Oblivion (PS3) (the greatest hits, not the game of the year edition). I saw a new copy for $22.99 and was wondering if that was a good enough deal ...

Re: Need help choosing between two games
Is the $29.99 for the regular edition or the GOTY edition, though? I saw the regular edition for $24.99 at HMV and $22.99 at Blockbuster. I'm in Canada though.
I see Amazon.com has the GOTY edition for $29.99 and the regular edition for $19.99 ...
