Fallout New Vegas is getting glorious reviews

[MidnightSpecial]

Ill be picking it up Friday and i will give a thorough review.

but to hold you over or to persuade you to get the game ive found a few reviews on the internet so far.

all of which seem to be a resounding BUY THIS GAME!

IGN UK review:


Feed your console:


Giant Bomb: (becoming one of my favorite review sites)

[Equilibrium]

Gonna go pick it up in about an hour, won't play until tonight though.

[Clegg]

Not out here in the UK until Friday. Sucks because I'm working all weekend but have today off.

[Grand Champ]

Sweet! Glad I pre-ordered it.

[MidnightSpecial]

Ive taken from these reviews so far that the game is smaller in size but better in regard to things to explore.

Which i like because for how big fallout 3 it was a ***** walking around everywhere

especially those ****ing tunnels

seems though the game is having a lot of technical issues with glitching and freezing.

Fallout 3 had the same problem but they patched it to fix most of those problems.

[Grand Champ]

Apparantly the strategy guide for New Vegas is gonna go in Guiness book of world record as the longest strategy guide to date for any game. Not gonna buy it, but it speaks volumes about all the content in the game.:!!

[Rick Grimes]

Sounds like the hardcore mode is going to be unbelievably hard should be a good challenge. Anyone know what the level cap is? Is it 20 like Fallout 3 or 30 like the expansions?

PLaying it for about 1.5 hours so far today, the PC version.

So far very similar (obviously ), story seems compelling. So far spending most of my time scavenging for crap to sell for caps one thing I thought (if I remember correctly) was different Fallout 3 werent ****zines/books grant you a permanent increase to skill? Now its temporary.
