    They dropped a nuke, and it was awesome..

    Ahh, Fallout. The game were you venture into an unknown wasteland and find all sorts of fun things to do. Obsidian decided to make things a little more rough though than Fallout 3. You wake up, with your hands tied. You ... Read Full Review

    The writing holds up, the graphics don't

    I've been recommended this game for years and finally got through it recently. The writing is pretty good. You're paved in a melting pot where a number of factions vie for power and it's up to you too determine which ... Read Full Review

    New Vegas

    I've played both Fallout 3 and Fallout 4. I enjoy those games to a point. My biggest gripe with Fallout games in general is that they are legit just depressing. They are dark, gloomy, and everyone is bad. It ended up ju... Read Full Review

    The game opens with your character tied up, awaiting execution by a gang that are digging your grave. Their leader has stolen your delivery, which seems to be a poker chip. After you are shot and buried, you are dug up b... Read Full Review

    Melee OP Ftw!

    After finishing 3, i couldn't wait for the next game. And I was so glad when New Vegas came out. While the layout and story differed a bit. At it's core, this was the same fallout I had loved. The combat was great, the ... Read Full Review

    Ambitious ideas with flaws in gameplay.

    Fallout is known for its open world, and massive branching story arcs. New Vegas is no different. The landscape is quite massive. Dialogue options are plentiful. The amount of perks and abilities is staggering. The amoun... Read Full Review

    Rough around the edges, but a better game and land than Fallout 3

    Every time I started this game, I'd get about 30 minutes in then quit. Unlike Fallout 3, the story didn't grab me as interesting, and once I left the beginning area I didn't get that sense of "look at all those cool plac... Read Full Review

    Fallout: New Vegas

    Fallout: New Vegas is by no means a bad game, however, it's not a great one either. In order to play this game in its entirety, one must endure countless restarts, texture glitches, and some painfully bad dialogue. There... Read Full Review

    New Vegas carries the Fallout title pretty well.

    I wasn’t so sure about what to expect, it didn’t seem like a new full-fledged game at all but somehow felt like it was a completely new turn on how Fallout was handled in its third installment. Knowing the de... Read Full Review
