Entirely disagree.
You are correct, the first two and New Vegas had that levity to them. But I think that's what Fallout 3 intentionally stayed away from. Fallout 3 approached the series to show you a place that saw more nukes than anywhere else. They wanted their stamp to be something totally different from the originals. A more bleak and depressing start with a more hopeful outcome.
In FO1 and 2 (and new vegas), West Coast society had rebounded quickly, where as DC was still a ruin and because of just how bad off it was, would remain so.
I think the first two look awful in comparison now.
