Wait, you're seriously proclaiming Fallout 3 as the worst Fallout game because of canon? Are you shitting me? Fallout's "lore" has always sucked. The saving graces of the games are atmosphere, karma, choices, and gameplay. And F3 definitely delivered on three of those four fronts.

Fallout 3 was a great post-apocalyptic open world shooter. As a Fallout game it was a complete train wreck.

What you're saying conflicts this (though I assume now the discussion is a wider debate about Bethesda than actually Fallout 3 itself).
But it doesn't change the fact that F3 didn't help the actual game.

Interplay/Obsidian are the only contenders, and they did already. But only after Fallout 3.
then people shit all over Bethesda and praise New Vegas, even though New Vegas simply added onto what Bethesda already created.
Friendly reminder that Fallout 3 was the best release to the franchise
