Vista 64 bit vs. 7 32 bit

Only problem with Windows 7 is that it can be difficult to play Fallout 3 on... or in my case impossible.

Otherwise much like Star Trek, Microsoft has a tendancy to make every 2nd release really terrible... Windows Vista is in the same catergory as Windows ME.

Why play F3, Pape-san ? I liked you.

If this is a choice between two OS'es you happen to have lying around, I'd go with 32bit 7 not because it's so much better than 64bit Vista but because I expect it will receive support (i.e. security fixes and so on) for a lot longer than Vista will.

If however, you just want to get more life out of your hardware, I'd go for a 64bit Linux based OS. Or if you insist on Window, I'd agree with Xiahou for a change and go with a 64bit version of Windows 7 instead.

Because I played F2 and it was heavily discounted so why not?

We all played Fallout 1 & 2 and could die should Ron Perlman slip into our dreams and say "War...War never changes...I want you dead as soon as you wake up" but F3 is just a different story to Fallout gamers.

Fallout New Vegas is as close as new-gen games could get. You should try that out and beg Enclave to forgive you for your sins.
