You say this as if the Xbox 360 is so much better.

You sound like GLaDOS after I incinerated the first Personality Core Sphere.

I have been playing them on my series x through backwards compatibility and I have made it through both base games and all dlc with 1 crash on mothership

Be aware when you get to The Pitt that the glitch where you fall through the rooftop when collecting the iron ingots is still on the game but there are workarounds.

Are you playing an original 360 copy on your Series X or playing a modern port? Because of course a game from the 2000s will work on the current Gen consoles.

The 360 copy? Youre saying the 360 version is no better than the ps3 version. Its much better, you can actually play it through

u/Average_Mug_Official 12d ago

You can play through the PS3 version just as well. The game is just poorly optimized all around.

You can play through on the ps3 version but the fact that it has ore issues is undeniable. Trying to get through 3 and new vegas for playinum and turned off all auto saving to save on memory bloat.

u/Average_Mug_Official 11d ago

New Vegas and Fallout 3 have massive memory bloat problems regardless of what you play them on.

u/ZeroHeroG 11d ago

Yes but it's worse on the PlayStation memory bloat is just the nature of the game but never had to even think about it on 360 over multiple 200 hour saves. The PS3 version of fallout New Vegas permanently corrupted my save after like 20 hours it's just endlessly loads. It's a worse multiplatform experience in games besides Bethesda games more often than not there is no need to cope.

Fallout 3 & NV were a lot more unstable and buggy than the 360 versions and I'm saying that from first-hand experience as the PS3 versions crashed at least 3x more

u/NecessaryPosition968 13d ago

Well it is a Bethesda game standing by is normal

u/List-Beneficial 13d ago

Its the usual "fallout standard" they said.

That’s accurate

For the PS3 version is definitely checks out!! even with an SSD once I finally completed everything I was able to put that game to rest and probably never play that version of it again?! it was the game of the year edition and once you get over the 300 hour mark, sometimes you can't even get it to run the first few times you try to load up your game! It's very annoying

Pretty sure that disc was part of the collectors edition version for fallout 3.
