Fallout: New Vegas

My spurs still jingle jangle jingle for this one. Putting the giant evil mosquitoes and deathclaws right at the start if you want to head north kinda stinks , I'm daring but I'm not THAT daring.

it looks like absolute shit and it crashes all the time. other than that, it's the best RPG ever made, filled with brilliant writing, endlessly entertaining quests and a world so rich and lived-in that it's a shame we only got one game of it. anyone who prefers Skyrim to this is a soft-brained dolt who plays video games for the wrong reasons.

The true Fallout experience: if you've never played a Fallout game, start here. Put on the Wild Wasteland perk at the start of the game, sit back, and enjoy. FO:NV combines post-apocalyptica with a genuine skill/perk system that produces a myriad of ways to play the game, and the DLC has some of the best writing I've seen in years. An absolute masterpiece. And once you've experienced the main game? Mod the hell out of it for a completely new experience. I recommend Project Nevada to start.

Fallout with a western flavour which is an improvement in some parts.

Easily my favourite RPG ever. The character/world development is so damn great. Plz can Obsidian do another one plz

Probably the best-written RPG ever. It has dozens of interesting characters, quests, and factions. It has much more in common with the original games than 3. The introduction of the faction system is a way to expand on the core mechanics and allow the character to feel as though New Vegas were a real place and not a video game location. If it were not for the terrible quality of the production this would be a slam-dunk for best of its generation. As is, it is still a must-play for anyone.

Retains the wonky engine and the lousy combat mechanics of Fallout 3, although the new armor system does at least constitute a minor improvement. It's the non-combat gameplay where New Vegas really shines, treating players to a glorious range of choices, consequences, non-linear solutions, alternate paths, and more non-combat skills than you can shake a stick at. Old-school Fallout fans have called New Vegas "the true sequel to Fallout 1 and 2"; I'm inclined to agree with that assessment.

This is 2001. This is Mad Men. I didn't even have accrued leave when this game came out but I took time off from my part time job. No other game has ever matched the experience that New Vegas delivers. True choice is present, it has true adventure and you feel genuinely free. Endless entertainment and my favourite game of all time. Yes man!

Although not part of the main series, this Fallout stands with the rest in the series easily, and in some aspects is even better than Fallout 3 and Fallout 4. It is truer to the lore established in the first two games, while maintaining the RPG elements that were largely abandoned in Fallout 4. Plus, the backdrop of Vegas is just as cool, if not better, than DC.

A wonderfully immersive RPG. While there are still a million things to do, the story is much more fun and engaging than Fallout 4.
