Oblivion forces you put work in to get something out of your game playing experience.

Considering the gap in years i would still give Fallout 3 the edge in graphics because the environments are very diverse and creative. So, Fallout is obviously more detailed and refined. As far as graphics go, well Fallout 3 is a new game and Oblivion is three years old. Oblivion forces you to become an active participant and create your own story where as Fallout 3 presents itself as a more traditional video game and drops you into the story from the start. The gameplay and story for both are just as ensnaring. Which do you enjoy more, a fantasy setting or a post-apocalyptic setting? They both have unique and engaging combat systems.

Which is better? Well, it really depends on your preference.
