I've been wondering if I should get a better PC and get Fallout: NV on PC... I have it on Xbox 360, but I've heard the Fallout games are fun to mod on PC... If Fallout is better on PC than on Xbox, I'll certainly look into it... So what are YOUR opinions? :thumbsup:

Ps3 question mark? I play Xbox anyway but you left that out

I suggest PC, the graphics can look better and you can mod the hell out of your game, but I'd say the real reason is to appreciate it more. I'm now finding it very difficult to play RPGs on my 360, it feels too impersonal.

It's rare that a game plays better on a console than a computer. There are obviously exceptions; Force Unleashed being a good example.

A game may be better off on a console, however, such as for most competitive online play, even if the game itself would otherwise play better on a computer; it's generally harder to cheat on a console. Again, obviously there are exceptions, like, say, TF2. And it's not like every console game's multiplayer is even worthwhile.

For singleplayer, you're going to be hard pressed to get a better experience out of a console unless you're comparing it to a godawful computer. Basically anything a console can do, a computer can do better, though it generally requires more work on your part (like if you want to use goofy peripherals, hook up to a massive TV and sound system, etc.). Hell, a computer can use the very peripherals most people associate with modern consoles (Xbox/PS3 controller, Wiimote, Kinect), but again, this takes some effort (well, except the Xbox controller).

Cost-wise, the consoles themselves are generally going to be cheaper. The games are going to cost more (I mean for the exact same game it is often $10 cheaper); that's not taking into consideration the near infinite amount of free games on the internets (and I'm not counting piracy, I mean legitimately free).

None of the responses so far have touched on one of the very best reasons to go PC over console- mouse aiming. If you use nothing but VATS for Fallout, then it doesn't matter- but if you prefer freehand-aiming your weapons, then there is no console controller in the world that will ever beat the sharpness, speed and accuracy of a good ol' computer mouse. Doesn't have to be a fancy one, either. Any decent $10 mouse will beat the most expensive console controller you can buy, for freehand aiming accuracy. The mods, better graphics, and all the rest of the PC advantages are just icing on the cake.

Thanks for your replies! As for the computer mouse, if I was going to play on PC, I would probably buy a controller like an Xbox controller because I am most used to it... How easy is it to mod on a PC?

Click,download,install.

Creating them is diffrent.

Ok cool
