While Fallout III had its moments they were few and far between, and not worth the effort of the trudging through it's un-atmospheric wasteland. Additionally that was about the same time that I discovered S.T.A.L.K.E.R., a game that blew me away and a series that I now love, and Fallout III paled in comparison. New Vegas is better, enjoyable, fun, but still not has exciting or riveting as those first two games were for me.

Total War. I played the hell out of MTW I. I casually enjoyed RTW. But when I tried MTW II the campaign crashed after 1 turn due to bugs and the battles were winnable by simply charging with anything. I stopped playing after that, I just no longer enjoyed it. I've played a little STW II, while I think it is a solid game I don't think the genre is for me any more.
