    Awesome game. Fallout 3 with many more option and differents option for the story and the quests. For a quest give you 3 option, then these 3 option take 3 different ways! You can be whatever you want to me in this game. First i bought the game on console on full price, but it was unplayable for many console only problems. Then on Steam i got it at 6â

    I played the hole game in 60h, took me a month but it was worth it. The game is simply great with a huge map to explore and the DLCs add even more to it.

    Everything on the outset looked good, this was the unofficial incarnation of the original 3rd installment (google 'project van-buren' FMI). Even better to have it so quickly after the excellent fallout 3 and its highly decent add-on packs.

    If you want to save yourself 2 minutes of reading, in brief - I recommend you play this game, it IS a decent game, however keep in mind that if you played the original you perhaps will not like this as a direct comparison -

    Its more of the same, which isn't a bad thing, but not improving upon it makes me wonder why bother at all?

    There's a name for when you take an existing technology and change it enough to call it something else... a cash in.

    The plot is decent, the map is wide and varied, however did i prefer NV to 3?... No, I didn't.

    I found new vegas to be exactly the same as Fallout 3, just not quite as polished.

    This feels more like a BIG add-on pack than a seperate game frankly and thats not a bad thing, but don't expect this to resolve or indeed improve on anything found in fallout 3.

    You should buy it, you may like it, a few may love it... but a classic it will never be.

Details in the weapons are very well done and weapon mods allow more in-depth gameplay. The game's difficulties are still easy even on very hard though I have not tried hardcore mode yet. The main plot line is very well done and I thoroughly enjoyed it for 60 hours. The story starts boring but eventually is built up to something great. There are a couple of factions that you can interact with during the main quest line and your decisions will alter the outcomes through the whole story. Obsidian really put their deep role playing game making experience again into fallout universe to make a worthy sequel to fallout 2 (do you think New Vegas is somehow similar to New Reno in Fallout 2? ). If you are a fan since fallout this game is a must have. if you like fallout 3, NV's overall style is the same so still a good buy. Expand

The sheer level of variables, mutability and branches within this game and its engrossing story is simply mind-boggling. It's a triumph to good storytelling and, more importantly, the sheer magic and power that lies in immersion and activation of the human imagination. Having bought this game upon release, I literally only encountered one bug related to one single quest during a total of 103 hours of playtime. While I won't preclude that some bugs might occur - the game's size and mutability considered, I've just seen the tip of the iceberg - I have yet to discover them. Oh, and yeah... the atmosphere is amazing. Post-apocalyptic society has never been more interesting, more vicious, more humorous, more gory and more fun than this. Play it for the atmosphere. Play it for the story. For the sheer fun of littering the Mojave Wasteland with bodyparts while humming the catchy tunes of Marty Robbins' Big Iron and other Gunslinger ballads. Play it because it is probably one of the greatest monuments to the possibilities of computer games, and one of the most compelling RPG's ever made. Expand

It has two modes to select from (Basic, or hardcore) which allows you to see how hard it will really be to survive in a wasteland. The atmosphere is dry and the terrain is jagged and just makes you feel the realness of surviving. That's not the reason I rated this game a 10 though its because it has the best character customization (next to oblivion) It's by far got one of the best first and third person shooter methods I have ever experienced and vats just adds so much unique feelings, from the epic moment you blow off an enemies arm, leg, or head. Or turn someone into ashes or a pool of melted plasma it gives you so much satisfaction that you cant wait to kill the next enemy with the wide variations of weapons. Which brings me to my next point the weapons are perfectly balanced and everyone feels good to hold in your hands the sounds are exquisite and makes you feel like you are shooting a real gun at a real person, or creature. Also the voices are good but not great but the amount of dialogue pays up for it with over 60,000 lines of dialogue which is a record might I remind you. The amount of time and effort put into this game should be appreciated. Also the creatures and the wide amount of them really adds some flavor to the game other than fighting people with guns 24/7 *Ahem*cod. From geckos to deathclaws from cazadors to nightstalkers there are over 40 new creatures not including the dlc. I think this game alone yet a little buggy is beautiful and a game to be reckoned with 10/10 A true rpg masterpiece ~ Snowweed Expand

    This game is perfect shooter. I really like the open world. It is nice that all the basics are all ready known by playing fallout 3.

    Now that New Vegas has finally been patched to a stable state I can say it is much better than Fallout 3 in terms of storyline and player experience. Fallout 3's main story ending is too linear and many of the game locations and characters seem too disconnected from each other.

While Fallout 3 was shallower than the average puddle, with few really meaningful choices to be made in the world, next to no fleshing out of characters, and several complete breaks from the established Fallout universe, New Vegas goes a lot of the way to repairing these faults. The game is superbly written and the player must think their actions through carefully because here, they really do mean something. Saying the wrong thing at an early stage can influence the game in ways seldom seen in any title released since the original games. The world is more alive than that of Fallout 3, with an endless list of things to do and see and a plethora of characters who each have their own story to tell. I've put just shy of 200 hours into the game so far and I'd hazard a guess I've experienced maybe half of what it has to offer at most. There is colour, and it's not green like Fallout 3 - the purple of the evening sky, the green of struggling crops, the rainbow neons of the Strip all add up to make the game feel alive. This is a true Fallout game, not a watered-down attempt to try and hook in players without the patience required for a series with so much depth. I do have to dock some points for the engine; Gamebryo continues to be buggy, clunky, and generally a bad choice for pretty much any given purpose. The Strip and New Vegas itself are miniscule, presumably due to engine constraints, and while the world is much more lively that Fallout 3's, there are still a lot of areas which hint at much greater, but unrealised, aspirations. Despite being hamstrung by its engine, however, the game offers a rich experience through its story, its characters, and its gameplay. Definitely worth buying; I can now pretend Fallout 3 didn't happen. Expand

At any time you can just stray off the beaten path, get quests that take you to far places and whatnot. The only problem with the game, in my opinion, is that the story is far less "epic": you're not trying to save a Vault, your tribe or discover the fate of your father and then save the world (pretty much). You just wanna kill the guy who tried to kill you, then you start working for a faction for no other reason than you want to. Other than that, the game is excellent, and a must for anyone who liked any of the Fallouts. Expand

One addition I like is the factions system, but its horribly balanced in that choosing one factions gives ALOT of quests and stuff to do, choosing the other has like 5 quests and nothing else, so for the sake of FUN you choose the one faction.

Not to mention the absolutely amazing (atmospherically speaking) Vault locations in the game - and what about the soundtrack? Return of some Mark Morgan dark ambient tunes, which tie the certain locations & characters to the past Fallout games (1 & 2) in a way that truly works. Ok, when it comes to technical side - Fallout New Vegas has its' share of bugs too, but it's so much less buggy than Fallout 3 was (at least in my PC's case) that it almost feels like "where are the bugs?". I've spent closer to 200 hours (and that's not counting Lonesome Road DLC yet) in Fallout New Vegas and experienced perhaps handful of fatal crashes. There are so much things to do and places to see in Fallout New Vegas that if a game could be stated as being "worth the money" - then Fallout New Vegas would be the best example of that. Replay value is very good. Easily the best Fallout game since Fallout 2. Even if it seemingly "does not offer anything new if compared to Fallout 3" - that might be the very initial impression, but take my word; don't let that fool you out. Expand
