If you liked Fallout 3, then you definitely have to play this game. The game mechanics have had a lot of additions, such as: -modifying weapons that you find with things like extended mags or scopes -much more weapon choices -you can have two companions at once, companions give perks -additional currency types and enhanced trading Overall, the game really has a lot of added features from Fallout 3. The biggest downfall for me was that you can no longer make your own weapons. However, being able to mod weapons somewhat makes up for this. The story is a good one (whereas Fallout 3 was great). The DLC adds some nice content, that somewhat adds to the side stories in the game. This is an improvement from Fallout 3, where the DLC was almost completely separate. The game still has some bugs..... most people complain that it has more. However, I have experience fewer bugs and game freezes than I did in Fallout 3. I only experienced one story line bug, that kept me from completing a quest line for the NCR. However, this could be a result of me taking over New Vegas myself, so not sure really. The biggest disappointment for me, is that just like Fallout 3, the ending of the main quest stops the game. However, unlike Fallout 3, there is no DLC that allows you to keep playing the game.... booooo on that. This was a major complaint in Fallout 3, and so I would have figured that it would be fixed in Fallout New Vegas, but nope. So to get the full impact of all the DLC, you need to install it all at the beginning of the game. Play all the DLC before you go to the final fight.Read full review
I bought this product based on the fact that it was another Fallout game and I loved Fallout 3. The story line in this game has a couple good things about it; versatility in the sense that there are about 5 different ways you can control the final outcome, more weapons, and just a new environment. One of the more confusing things for me was the karma system and the like and dislike with each individual faction. That got confusing in the beginning when you weren't used to it, and stayed confusing when you have 10 different factions to worry about. The music is quite different than Fallout 3. Fallout 3 had a more upbeat style of old music and the DJ had an amazing personality, where as in this game the music is more mellow and the DJ just stays in touch with the news and makes a few puns with the names of the songs. This game was good, but it has some flaws that make it harder to play than Fallout 3Read full review
This game was 'kinda' everything I was expecting but it in overall is still good to the point where I will probably never sell it just because of the mods and everything that can still be made for it. Anyways, to the review I would say as far as I am in the game I haven't encountered any 'major' bugs just little glitches here and there but a simple reload should help, as if you have played Fallout 3 you know that it'll always have it's 'moments' but like I said not a bad game just needs a little more time to improve but anyways as I said about mods if you did purchase it for the PC then go to the New Vegas Nexus and start downloaded :D as for me I got it for Xbox 360 because of my lame pc. Pros: New Ironsight edition for "war" gamers. Most important part is the new weapon mods which I love. I guess for one last 'pro' it's nice feel as I/We had in Fallout 3 And so..... Now for Cons. Cons: Still buggy as always but if you purchased it on pc, look up Unofficial Fallout New Vegas patch and it helps a lot. (Not out by the Nexus yet if you've heard of them or it but soon to come, there is also a look alike as you can say that acts like an/the unofficial Fallout: NV Patch.) Not a vast improvement on facial features or graphics. The schematics were removed that were used to make 'craftable' weapons which I kinda loved. And so.... Overall like I said, I'll still always love Bethesda Games as they are my favorite so far.Read full review
Fallout 3 is one of the best RPG's I have ever played. Extremely fun, and providing an extensive world where you can mold your character into just about anything you want. It took years to perfect Fallout 3's game engine, ultimately resulting in a game strikingly similar to Oblivion. When I saw Fallout New Vegas hit the shelves, I was excited as all getout. Unfortunately, not much has changed since Fallout 3. It's essentially the same exact experience. Weapons, armors, look, feel, character advancement, everything is identical. The only real difference is the storyline. If you're looking to replay Fallout 3 with a different story, then I suggest Fallout New Vegas. Otherwise, just start a new F3 game and be done with it. Other than that, it's a great game. :)
When i first picked up this game brand new from the gamestop down the road i was unsure that i would like it. I first started playing it and was instantly annoyed at how much like the first one it was and stopped playing after about 30 minutes. But i gave it a second chance like i have for someother games. Upon playing for a little longer i discovered a whole new waste land with many new friends, perils, weapons and secrets. I liked that is progresses the post apocalyptic world and shows the recovering process the world is going through. i love the new gangs and large band of men. beyond that of fallout 3's random towns with nothing in it. i played this game two timess though once to explore and another to destroy. im sure there are many other ways to play this game but i was throughly satisfied with just utter destruction. but if you are not into that there is a diverse web of story lines in which you can progress not only your own character but the npc's around you. you can convince other towns to love or hate you and react accordingly with that. Overall this game is an 8 on a scale of ten. the only reason it gets 2 off the ten is because it is a little slow at times but i am sure that xbox will release many updates fixing all those "glitches" everyone is talking about. i really had no problem with only a hundred saves. really are you going to use every save file...no anyways if you on the edge of getting this game, you should totally go for it. ..the endRead full review
