GameXplain: PAX 2010 - Fallout: New Vegas Hands-On

GameXplain Writes: "When Fallout 3 came out in 2008, it garnered widespread praise for its open world design and non-linear gameplay mechanics. Bethesda hopes to recapture that magic with Fallout: New Vegas. However, whereas Bethesda Game Studios developed Fallout 3, the baton has been passed down to Obsidian Entertainment for its follow up."

Can't Wait For This Game!

[GuruStarr78]

Now don't screw it up, Obsidian!

[SeanRL]

It's been two years and I still play fallout 3. Hopefully this will last me until the next game!

[B-Real206]

I just purchased fallout 3 new for 20 bucks not bad. This will be my first play through. Enjoying it so far.

[outwar6010]

I've decided that I wont get the game until the first dlc is released

[Nihilism]

Why not wait for the GOTY version...( or the full game + DLC pack anyway )...

I'm sick of getting screwed by being a day 1 customer, if any game comes out and I get a whiff of impending DLC before launch...i'm buying it in the bargain bin...screw buying the game now then the GOTY ( or all the DLC ) to make the game what was intended.

I bought the C.E of DA....I bought pre-ordered the standard version of DA2 and got it cheap because I know that sucker is going to have 50 DLC packs...all of which I will torrent.

[outwar6010]

lol goty versions are usually like two years later i dont mind paying for the dlc if its worth it(i baught them all for fallout 3 and loved them) my reason for waiting is simple i like to clear the main story stuff first(atleast with my main char) and obsidian are "stopping" the game there

[CombatEvolving]

You do realize almost everything in life goes down in value. You get the game early for more to play it right away. Have fun waiting 2 years for the game you fucking pirate.

[outwar6010]

@ combat evolved pirate really? becuase he wants to pay a descent price rather than the extortionate prices video games are in their first year? its weird how the minority who speak out about them valuing the money they earn by purchasing smartly are branded pirates, cheap or stingy

[KingKiff]

You made the list buddy...

Sigh

[Nihilism]

I have already pre-ordered DA2, on top of that I bought the collectors edition of Dragon AGe as well as Dragon Age Awakening...I think they are getting plenty of money from me.

[frankymv]

Going to pass on this game.

[dinkeldinkse]

Not going to waste money on another unstable glitchfest like FO3.

[StitchJones]

It could have the same engine and overall look of Fallout 3 for all I care. As long as the weapons are cooler. The missions and quests are engaging and the landscape is fun to explore. Heck it could run on the Morrowind engine for all I care.

[outwar6010]

hopefully it just runs smoother across all platforms and the dlc is launched at the same time
