    FNV is fairly old now but it does not feel old, the game is rich of exploring the Mojave wasteland. Sometimes the game is peaceful as you are wandering a deserted town, other times it is intense and scary as you are being chased by one of those damn cazadors on a mountain. Fnv is a true rpg full of life and those creepy deserted vaults.

    Ooo, I really regret buying this and playing it. I'd rather not do this. I need a refund. I hope you go bankrupt and never make another game in your life

    sadly we wont be getting another game like this :'(

    Bethesda has proven that they know who they're games are made (fallout franchise) and that is of the simple minded fanboy, they don't care about good intelligent story telling they just want easy to digest content in the form of caps, nuckacola, rad roatches and the brotherhood of steel so they can play and feel invested in a franchise    sadly we wont be getting another game like this :'(

    After playing fallout 4 everyone told me to play new vegas, saying it was better. Boy could that be any further from the truth.

Boy could that be any further from the truth. The game which is supposed to be free roam has you follow a narrow path and throws quests at you as you traverse, some are interesting but many are not, in many instances the give you a choice, and then deduct karma as a way to tell you whether it was the right choice or not, what rpg tell you if you made the right choice or not, that for you to decide. furthermore, the towns feel empty as they are all made up of multiple different interior cells with almost no npc's outside, so it feels like everyone is just chilling inside doing nothing, in many instance the game bugged such as when the plane flies over hoover damn, for me there was no plane. Think of my confusion. in many cases when you attack a hostile evil faction, such as the powder gangers or the legion, the game will deduct karma when you take stuff from their camp. this game uses hype to its advantage, things are talked up way higher than they pan out to be. The best example is New vegas, it's in the title, but when you get there its simply two cells and a couple of mindless NPCs walking around, they at least try to make excuses for their laziness though, like the vault in New vegas which has been cemented over cause I guess the devs got lazy or something. All the weapons are just real-world weapons or stuff left over from fallout 3, It's supposed to top be a wasteland but it is so built up that it doesn't feel that way. The muddy colours really make you dread playing. The game does have many choices, but they don't normally play out, instead the characters stand around until you finish the game where the announcer tells you what happened, what happened to show not tell. Lastly, many of the items and themes feel to modern, many of the guns fit the fallout universe but an equal amount don't, the m16 teeters on the line of what fits and what doesn't but many other weapons simply break pre-established canon by being present. All-in-all I would have given this game a little bit of a better rating if it was not over-hyped to me. For the fallout franchise's sake, I hope Bethesda steers clear of Obsidian entertainment in the future.… Expand

    Fallout: New Vegas is a Fallout 3 expansion, it in fact plays identically to its predecessor with the same graphics and engine, and dull gunplay, as Fallout 3. This mess of a video game, if it even deserves to be called a video game, is full of banally crafted and totally unoriginal or ridiculous factions.

    They may have added a few more guns, but that doesn’t make up for it being merely a Fallout 3 expansion. Beware of the leagues of total idiots who will try to tell you this disaster is a half decent game.    … Expand

    Despite Obsidian's fan-service, Fallout: New Vegas is a heaping pile of bugs.

    Fallout: New Vegas looks like an Add On to Fallout 3, but that should not mean, that it's a copy of its forerunner. It scores with an great atmosphere, nice story and all the typical and awesome Fallout features.
