NV had an amazing story and freedom, and the world was also great. It was a better game of the 2. It also fixed a lot of the technical issues in 3, added some great mechanics. But both were very fun, though if I had to choose I'd say NV was better. Even if only because of Fisto :P
And then there is fallout 4, hated by many and not without reason. It's a very mediocre rpg, if it can even be called a rpg .. but it's a great open world shooter, if you're into it. And again, while the main story is cr4p, there are significantly better stories in the game.

The thing I always found hilarious about blowing up megaton is when that lady turns into a ghoul and she still acts as if the world is still under control and not completely blown away by atomic bombs. Her attitude as a ghoul is hilarious and funny.
As much as I like NV, I feel like the path to success was much more linear than Fallout 3. Not to say I didn't explore as much as I could, but it didn't feel as fun running up to an abandoned building as it would in Fallout 3. Could easily just be due to the setting since I have a soft spot for a post apocalyptic Washington DC. And I mean c'mon, finding the White House in Fallout 3 was one of the best experiences I've ever had.
I wouldn't really go as far to say Fallout 4 fits into the category of a traditional Fallout RPG. It did a lot of things great, especially the gunplay. But I think they tried to do more than they could chew instead of just sticking with what they know.
Now, with Fallout 76 on the horizon, I'm very much looking forward to what will happen. The idea of people fighting each other seems really cool and I hope it's done in a way that makes Fallout shine like it should.
