I prefer TES over Fallout. I just like the setting better, though I play them both and still love Fallout too.
As far as TES online, you should really do more research before saying what you say. Sure it isn't the same as TES, but it is a lot different than WoW.
Is there even a question?
It should be obvious that the original Fallout games and universe is much better than TES, the bastartised version of Bethesda is at par or slightly lower though...
I think the correct term is "mildly biased".
On-topic: I prefer The Elder Scrolls games, they tend to give me more hours of enjoyment. And since they're more popular than the Fallout games they also get more/better mods.
Why? People don't seem to "obviously" agree with you in this so far...
I prefer elder scrolls myself. Morrowind in particular was one of the major nerd-chills I will remember for decades. I don't believe I'll ever meet it's like in terms of setting.
Come on, it is obvious you like the game you played FIRST more.
I played Fallout 1 as my first rpg, so I think it is superior. But I guess if I played TES first I would think otherwise. But maybe not, because I like post-apo setting more, so now it comes down to the fantasy vs sci-fi.
Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowind vs Fallout 3, New Vegas
I would go with Elder Scrolls.
THis could change if Fallout 4 is better and more expansive than Skyrim.
Playing: Nothing
Looking forward to: Nothing
Both are quality games, fun ,challenging and choosing one over the other pretty much boils down to "preference".
I would actually be more excited to see a sequel to Fallout than an Elder Scrolls MMO. That would be awesome!
There is a huge difference in comparing Fallout 3 vs Oblivion, and Fallout 1 vs TES:Battlespire. Depends on what part of series people played and judged.
It is a hard choice to make, but I would give a slight edge to TES. Not by much however. Both are great.
The sad thing is I am old enough to remember hearing the music from Fallout on the radio when I was growing up.
I think they are both great.
If I had to pick one over the other, I'd probably go with TES, and that's most likely because I like the fantasy genre more than any other.
Beyond that, I've enjoyed each series immensely.
Hell hath no fury like an MMORPG player scorned.
Need a poll...and for the record its fallout for me.

Love both series a lot.
Played Fallout since first and TES since Morrowind. If I had to decide for me it would be Fallout 1 & 2 > TES > Fallout 3 & NV
Loved the random encounter on map travel in first 2 Fallout games. If you crank up difficulty a tougher encounter would end your travel very fast. Remeber it beeing quite challenging and also love post apocalyptic setting a bit more than fantasy.

If we're talking about all of Fallout, I'll take Fallout 1 over TES. Morrowind probably second.
And if we mean Fallout 3 and NV, then definitely TES. Although I can't be unbiased with Fallout 3, since every time it gets good and going, it's a guaranteed crash on me.
Haven't played NV so don't know about that one. Though I'm planning to try it out soon enough since I got it during a summer sale ^^
the only Fallout i played was Fallout 3 and i disliked that game so much i couldnt keep playing it till the end... not a fan of that series.
so yeah, TES all the way for me.
So if we're comparing TES: Oblivion and Skyrim with FO3 and New Vegas, I'd have to say I prefer TES. The original Fallouts and TES games on the other hand are too different to really compare directly.
Well if we discount the actual game play which is pretty much the same if we discount Fallout 1 & 2 than the choice boils down to setting alone. In this reguard I'd have to give the prize to the Elder Scrolls. High Fantasy just gives the producers a lot more room for some truly amazing scenery than the Post Apocolyptic setting. I love both series but TES wins out by a small margin with me.

arena was fun in its day, and I didn't get into FO until after daggerfall.
That said:
Skyrim > FO 1 > Arena > FO 2 > the other TES games.
