Fallout New Vegas

Post by negah »

I have never played any older Fallout games, but really liked Fallout 3. Now with a new Fallout game coming out Im pretty sure that Ill get it.

According to previews the game is a major improvement of Fallout 3. So what do you think about this game?

I'm really excited to play this game, but I learned from Fallout 3. Since I know they're going to be cranking out DLC for this game left and right, I'm waiting for a version containing all the DLC packs, then I'll pick it up.

While the game is looking better than Fallout 3 in many categories, it is apparently riddled with glitches. For consoles, there's a high chance or random freezes, and for PC, well, there's this.

These will most likely be patched soon though. I hope. :P

I've only played a bit of Fallout 3, but New Vegas looks pretty nice. I'm especially liking how it's based in the southwest, as I live down here and I'd love to see how accurate the locations are or what they included.

I probably won't be getting it for a while though, as I've already set aside what money I do have for several games being released next year.

I preodered fallout new vegas and am gettin it on Monday :D It's a really good game, maybe the best this season (in my opinion its gonna be better than black ops). I love how the managed to put the ability to 'Aim down your sights' or 'iron sights'... that makes it a real shooter :thumbs:

Hmm... iron sights is of course a good idea, but it was already done for FO3 with some mods. Still FO3 was more RPG than shooter (especially thanks to VATS system, which I used almost all the time due to perk bonuses).
