Just finished FO Vegas and I'm wondering what to waste my next 100hrs on.

I have the cash to spend on a cheap second hand wii, and could play Xenoblade but have quite a few RPGs waiting in the background for both the PS3/360

I always have a few casual and one RPG going at the sametime, my casual is InFamous/Dungeon Siege 3, but I want to make sure I make a good choice being that I'll be given around 60-100hrs on it... I have:

Dragon Age 2 (360)
Final Fantasy 13 (360) (was also enjoying this when I first got it, but when the story went sloppy I give up so I don't know if it gets better)
Fable 3 (I enjoyed the demo, and it has John Cleese in I hear)
Lost Odysey
Eternal Sonato (looks too childish to me, well the beginning was)
Metal Gear Sold 4 (not a RPG as such but a killer app that I'm interested in)
Deus Ex 3 (didn't like the first few hours and have slated it quite a bit, but it is getting excellent reviews from gamefaqs, so should I stick to it?)
Star Ocean (360)
Assassins Creed 1 (again not a rpg, but a lengthy game with a good story, loved 2 and really liked 3 so I would like to play it but I was under the impression that the controls sucked)
Halo Reach (again not a rpg, but is it a game that I really should complete?)

Any others that you think have slipped through the net that I ain't got I'd be interested in hearing about.

PS Does anyone know if you get anything special, other than a trophy for finishing this(Fallout - Vegas) in hardcore? It says at the beginning you do?

don't bother with dragon age 2 or fable 3 and would skip assassins creed 1 if you played the others as the others are vastly better.

All I got was an achievement when I did it on Xbox 360. You can't continue playing once you complete the main quest and you can't start a new game with items from your previous playthrough so I don't see what else they can give you really. If you haven't already played it then I'd just get Fallout 3 GOTY seeing as you already completed NV. :)

I can't see why they'd make a big point of telling you about giving you something special, when it's only a daft trophy... methinks they forgot.

Yeah, I did Fallout 3, but am tempted to play it again.
 
If you have not played them already, Mass Effect 1 and 2! I've easily put 200+ hours between the two.
 
With regards to the Hardcore achievement, you only get the achievement, you don't get anything else!

Aye, good games and I've completed them. Not sure how I could put 200+hours into them though!

I forgot to mention that I have Tales of Vesparia. I played this for sometime and really enjoyed it(best JRPG this gen imo) but I didn't get to finish it, I think its between this and Xenoblade. Problem is I ain't got a Wii(Xenoblade)...
 
Well I've decided to go for a sport RPG and a car RPG...

Virtua Tennis 4 (best tennis game I've played) & Gran Turismo 5 (immense car game).

Thanks for all the input, really appreciated.
