Urgh. This is an impossible question outside one known quantity: Brotherhood of Steel was crap. Only reason I played it/own it is due to Fallout withdrawal prior to Fallout 3.
I've not yet played Tactics, so no opinion there.
Fallout 1 - The start of the franchise, but still holds up as a very solid story and well realized world.
Fallout 2 - Story comes in second to the sheer amount of stuff to see and do. Fallout 2's gameplay was vastly superior and remains entertaining.
Fallout 3 - The first Fallout to capture the devastation of the Wasteland from eye level. The story is subpar, but the world is practically begging to be explored.
Fallout: New Vegas - A solid story, but it's almost an afterthought to the brilliant quest design. Every quest has multiple solutions at multiple points. It makes for a vastly satisfying experience.
...where's the "All of the Above" option?
