# Strip away the superb characterisation, scripts, cut scenes and so on,
and you're left with a pretty dull, narrow, repetitive series of chores. The actual game itself isn't all that much of a game.
After a while it's like doing housework with yr thumbs.

# Aren't most video games repetitive?
Shooter = shoot, Driving sim = drive etc etc.

I know what you're getting at, the missions can get tedious. I just really enjoy open world/sandbox games rather than linear BS.

# As do I.
Red Dead Redemption is great for a dozen hours or so, before you gradually realise nothing new's going to come along... maybe I'm just spoilt.

Favorites of mine (this gen) are Fallout 3 and Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, which both keep it interesting for a hell of a long time.

All-time favourite is Thief 2: The Metal Age, from way back, but a beautifully subtle thing to play.

# I never got into the Fallout series.
I do admit to not giving it a lot of time though.I'll definitely give it another go sometime.

# Please do.
Fallout 3 takes its time getting you into its stride, but once it does... believe me, it's worth the groundwork.

# Fallout 3 and Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

# Pfffft.
TPS are hard. At least for an FPS player like myself, I didn't do too bad on RDR though, I did enjoy free roam more though.
Nothing like sniping some noobs.
