The sheer amount of things to see and experience is overwhelming. It closely matches Fallout 3 in terms of depth and content
If you loved the original
You’ll probably love this one as well.

Lots of major and minor improvements to the Fallout formula

Great atmosphere
In and out of the Vegas Strip
Your choices have palpable consequences.
Amazingly realistic world with great characters
Stories and imagery. This is what Fallout 3 should have been.
The editors didn't like
Small issues abound
And things that could have been addressed weren’t
Quests aren’t as inventive or as complex as they could be
Game can be a bit easy on the Casual setting. The VATS system is back and works just like it did in Fallout 3

So many bugs
Would be nice to sort inventory by item weight.
Glitches
Radio sucks
Graphics are showing their age
Screw Deathclaws
Man

Absolutely swarming with disastrous bugs
Some quests are not enjoyable
Main story isn't compelling.
Severely dated engine and the same bugs that plagued Fallout 3 lead to a lessthanperfect experience.
Abstract: I blame Bethesda’s Fallout 3 for sucking many hours of my life away, wandering in the Capital Wasteland. While I never finished either of the first two games, I definitely completed the main mission, many side missions, and all the DLCs that were produ...

Character models are a bit ropy, Hardcore Mode can get tedious, story lacks the 'oomph' and urgency of Fallout 3
Fallout: New Vegas is another slice of the same radioactive pie -- which is exactly what fans ordered. If you loved Fallout 3, you will not be disappointed by this familar expansion...
Abstract: If you haven’t already spent the last few days getting stuck into Fallout 3: New Vegas (it landed on our shores earlier this week) then you may very well be wondering either what the big deal is, or, if you already have Fallout 3, why you should bother...
Abstract: Within the first hour-and-a-half of our Fallout: New Vegas experience we had to reset our Xbox 360 three times. Once when our body got stuck half way through a rock and we couldn’t move, or get back to the menu screen, and twice when our Pip Boy froze ...
Fallout New Vegas was lots of fun, but isn't really the major step up from Fallout 3 that I was expecting. I did like the fact that I couldn't predict where the game was leading me, and to all intents and purposes I was free to wander at will. Plenty of p...
Abstract: Name: Genre: Platform: If you were one of the many, many gamers who sunk a large chunk of their lives into Fallout 3, you'll know that it was an experience as gruelling as it was awe-inspiring. Set in a huge, beautifully realised but desolate world,...
