"To all those in capital wasteland"
5 stars"

Many of you out there in capital wasteland might not know this but New Vegas is not made by Bethesda like fallout 3 was. Bethesda has given the task to a game company call obsidian entertainment.

What does this matter you say? The original fallout 1 &2 were made by a game company called black isle studios. However this company was dissolved. Many designers left to find work in other places but some teamed together to form obsidian entertainment. These are the same people who are making fallout New Vegas.

So many fans of the original fallout franchise did not like fallout 3 and might be happy with the change to the original designers.

But the majority of players who joined in when fallout 3 came out might be surprised by the changes obsidian might make. So there is an air of uncertainty amongst many players.

However the game engine is the same one used in fallout 3 so it will look the same as fallout 3. The game will play very similar to fallout 3 as well however obsidian are making a few changes to this game. The changes that obsidian is making look like improvements on fallout 3. Such as: being able to look down sights, customisable weapons and the new companion wheel.

My opinion is that this game is going to be a good combination. The game engine we love from fallout 3 and the improvements that obsidian is making.

“Thanks for listening chilllldren!”

"If its half as good as Fallout 3, i'll love it!"
5 stars"

Fallout 3 was an amazing game, so you can expect to see a lot of hype and anticipation surrounding Fallout: New Vegas. It has been announced that the same game engine is being used, with a few upgrades to it. While this is a safe move on Obsidian Entertainment's be­half, it makes it near impossible for them to go wrong in terms of gameplay. However, there is a new storyline, new characters (with a few classic characters making an appearance), new weapons, and a new setting. In summary, expect more of the same in the gameplay department, but you can also expect different scenery, guns and characters. This game will be good!

"LOOKS TO BE EPIC" Purchased on Mighty Ape

Fallout 3.

That is the name of one of the best games I ahd ever played with so much to do! The atmosphere of fallout 3 was awesome and really made me feel as though there was no hope and everything was desolate.

If Fallout New Vegas is better than Fallout 3, then we have a masterpiece to look forward too :D!

Thank you mightyape for being reliable and trustworthy to pre order from!

"Only $120 sounds like a deal"

When it was first announced I was expecting to pay $140 like with fallout 3. I was really surprised by the $120 price tag. If you ask me this game is a must buy. At that price I might just buy two.
