Which of these games should I buy if I can only buy one or two?

I have to choose between buying Fable II, Dragon Age II, Mass Effect 2, Bioshock 2, Fallout 3, and Final Fantasy XIII on the Xbox 360. I only know some of these are slightly older, probably cheaper games but you see, I'm running a really tight budget and I don't have too much time to game day to day anyways.Which of these games should I buy if I can only buy one or two?
Fable 2 is an excellent game, but is very limited on content and short. I beat the whole story and every side mission in a weekend. $7.99 used at gamestop.

I have never played Dragon Age 2, but the first game is one of my favorite games of all time. $34.99 used and $39.99 new at gamestop.

I didn't like Mass Effect 1, so I never played #2. $19.99 new and $17.99 used at gamestop.

I have never played Bioshock 2 either, but once again the first game is one of my favorites. $9.99 new and $8.99 used at gamestop.

Fallout 3 is probably the biggest "bang for your buck" in the list. I have completed all of the main quest, The Pitt (DLC), Operation Anchorage (DLC), and I am currently playing Mothership Zeta (DLC). I am around 60-80 hours into the game so far. $12.99 used at gamestop. Game of the Year Edition (contains all DLC) is $29.99 new and $26.99 used at gamestop.

I don't know anything about FF XIII. $19.99 new and $17.99 used at gamestop.



From my experience and knowledge of these games I would recommend Fallout 3 if you can only get one. If you can get another, you should get Fable, Dragon Age, or Bioshock (only if you played Bioshock 1).
i'll rank them in my preference:

1. fallout 3

2. mass effect 2

3. dragon age 2

4. final fantasy 13

5. bioshock 2

6. fable 2



fable 2 is an awful game, they were even giving it away free on the marketplace for a short period of time. the only reason i would suggest getting it is because its really cheap.

bioshock 2 is a fun playthrough, but its a lot like the first game if youve already played that, and its a bit shorter. the online kinda sucks, so it will only keep you entertained for so long. its also really cheap right now, though. final fantasy is a great game, but not as good as its predicessors, and just too damned long for me. i dont know if you have any time consumption limits, but damn. dragon age 2 is a good game, in most respects, and is fairly comparable to mass effect 2. theyre both really fun rpg third persons with excellent story lines, plot build up and characterization, as well as amazing gameplay. when it comes down to it, it really just depends if you like science fiction or fantasy more, and also mass effect 2 is a bit cheaper right now. fallout 3, however, is the best all around game of all of these in my opinion. its cheap right now, and the gameplay is outrigh amazing if youre into rpg first person free roams. once again, im a big fan of science fiction, so that makes it pretty good for me; but theres just so many things you can do in it. theres a main story line, but theres more side quests than main quests if you want to spend more time doing that kinda ****. also, it has a great variety of weapons, you can customize them... its just a lot of fun. also, though, new vegas is down to 15$ at a lot of stores, so you might wanna check into that, too.Which of these games should I buy if I can only buy one or two?
i would definitely get fallout 3 and try to get the game of the year edition so you get all 5 dlc with it.if you can afford 2 games then my second choice would be dragon age 2,i haven't played it but its suppose to be really good.hope this helps.have fun gaming.
I would say Fallout3, bioshock2, and i've heard good thins about Fable II

Get them used at GameStop and if you don't like it you can get full refund for up to 7 days (or if you beat the game you can get the refund and try something new!!)

Have funWhich of these games should I buy if I can only buy one or two?
Mass effect 2 and fallout 3. If you can only buy one buy fallout 3, you'll get endless hours of play out of it
Blockbuster sale? If you like FPS with a story get Bioshock and Fallout they were "games of the year".
Fallout of 3 Should be your first choice if your only going to get one but if you getting two fallout 3 and Bioshock 2
Mass effect 2
dragon age 2, once to beat this game you are going to want part 3
