Is PC the way to go for future Fallout/TES games : Fallout: New Vegas

When it comes to RPG's I will always buy PC. Have an Xbox360, hooked to a beautilful 60 inch high def TV and with surround sound. It looks good, it sounds good. It is a lot of fun. But until the XBOX gives me mods - nah. Learned that lesson a long time ago. The ability to mod your game > High Def TV and Surround Sound. All these complaints about certain weapons or balance issues - just mod them. On the 360 - well you are out of luck...

Edit: I have not meet an RPG yet that did not have bugs/balance issues. PC is the only way to fix them. Devs just can not seem to do them timely.

Not so much repeat sales from Modding but the fact mods keep the game alive. People are still playing a game that is almost 10 years old mostly due to mods. Sure, a number still play because it is a good game, but folks today can make that game look like any other modern RPG with mods. That keeps it fresh for people.

I should of explained my statement better...I didn't mean modding creates repeat business but the games Bethesda releases that have construction sets help create the repeat customers, I am an example of that. After playing FO3 and learning to use mods for the first time I in turn went out an purchased Morrowind, and Oblivion for the PC as well as New Vegas but that was a given out of my love of the Fallout world :fallout:
