Borderlands vs. Fallout 3

[Estocavio]

Fallout is an Action Adventure Archetype, Borderlands is an Action RPG - They do not need to be compared for the same reason you dont compare Grand Theft Auto to Halo -- Even though people have.

But for some unfathomable reason ill go along with this shenanigan.
Fallout = Open World and Non Linear
Borderlands = Confined World and Linear

Therefore its a matter of taste, neither can be better.
I enjoyed Borderlands more though, mainly because NV was practically Fallout 3 in a new setting with less freedom.

Borderlands isn't really linear though. It is more linear than Fallout 3 is, but compared to say Call of Duty or Halo, it isn't linear at all.

Anyway, Borderlands vs Fallout 3 is like Killing Floor vs Left 4 Dead.

Yes, but this isnt about Call of Duty or Halo, this is directly comparing Borderlands and Fallout.

I'm sorry, but that makes no logical sense. So just because you are comparing a non-linear game to an even more non-linear game it makes the first linear?

Actually, it does make sense. Read the name of the Thread: Borderlands Vs Fallout 3. So im comparing the two games that the whole thread was made to compare. See now, i was agreeing with you at first, albeit with a slight addendum, Borderlands wasnt linear, but IN COMPARISON, due to the fact you had no choice but to follow a preset series of events with the exception of sidequests, with little exploration factor; I digress, im just going to politely ask you to check your facts.
