Fallout: New Vegas

Scráib

I've seen a few early screenshots here:
http://media.xbox360.gamespy.com/media/143/14341976/imgs_1.html

From the little information given away by a few screens it looks to me like it could just be a massive DLC or something. Fallout 3 I've heard took three years to devlop, this is due for release in Q3 2010. Hope it;s not a rushed job...

(P.S: Yes the link's to an XBox page I know!)

i read an article about this lately saying its not to be considered "Fallout 4", it is just another game set in the Fallout universe. Its from a different developer as well.

Captain Chaos

Its a different dev team making this, not the same team that did Fallout 3.

Scráib

It may be a different dev team, that's great and all. But the screenshots still look exactly like Fallout 3.

Captain Chaos

I just hope Obsidian don't do to Fallout what they did to KOTOR. Bioware made the first and Obsidian rushed the sequal. Obsidian better not rush this. A good thing about this Obsidian team doing Fallout Vegas is that one or two of the guys worked on the first 2 Fallout games so there is some hope.

Either way Bethesda will roll out Fallout 4 after Elder Scrolls 5 so it will be a while for Fallout 4 but it should be worth it.

Dinosaurs?

Looks like it's just a novelty thing on top of a restaurant, but dinosaurs would be great. Nothing can't be improved with the inclusion of dinosaurs.

It's being made by the guys that made Fallout 1 and 2 so with their input and the Fallout/Oblivion engine it's gonna be class. My favourite part of Fallout 2 was New Reno so I say it's just gonna be a new and greatly improved version of that.

I hear you start of as a courier who was shot left in a grave to die until you're saved by some wasteland doctor

Cant wait to waste another 100 hours on this one aswell

BArra

ahh fallout 1 and 2, great,,,great games

playing off the "mafia" mobs in new reno against one another and getting nicely rewarded

only to obtain power armour and go back and kill them all and loot their safes in their buildings

prob my 2 fav games of all time

TheTosh

Don't know about anyone else but I'm really looking forward to this game and I know its early to be getting the thread going but it was going to happen eventually.

The trailer for Fallout 3 made me so excited for that game, and I loved that game so much... but... the trailer for New Vegas feels like a big 'meh' for me. It looks pretty much like a huge Fallout 3 expansion pack, and there's nothing wrong with that at all, but the trailer just isnt making me feel excited for it at all.

why wouldn't that make you excited? it's making my pants tighter by the second

I would have been happy if Bethesda had of just kept releasing DLC for Fallout 3 instead of having Obsidian release a whole new game but New Vegas is looking good.

There is an official Fallout forum you can find it through google, its from Bethseda the owners of the franchise. The new company who are creating this game are using the same engine for graphics etc on FO 4 NV that was used on FO3 which is why it looks the same.

They havent changed a lot, but have added some new things which users complained about FO3, overall this game looks great and I will definitely be buying it, the forum I mentioned above if you google Bethseda they have game previews of this game etc, well worth checking out if you are a big FO fan and havent already seen this forum and website.

I'm trying to plat it at the moment. I'm only a few trophies off getting it, but I keep getting distracted by DLC and other things amazing game.

I really really can't wait for New Vegas. It looks savage!

Kersmash

Couldn't see any threads on it in the first few pages of this forum, so said I'd throw one up, for general discussion or what not.

Anyone else really excited about this game? Fallout 3 is probably one of my favourite games ever, and I think New Vegas looks like it will be just as fantastic. What do ye think?

For info on it, check this link: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Portal:Fallout:_New_Vegas

Played it yesterday, got around 10mins of game play in it seems pretty much the same as Fallout 3, obviously i didnt have time to get any of the story so no comment on that side of it but yea it seems good im pretty excited about it.

Overheal

havent even gotten around to the first one yet :eek: got to megaton but then I bought a whore for 120 bottlecaps, got distracted and went to go look at porn on the internet.

VenomIreland

I'm really looking forward to this as some of the team that made Fallout 2 (notably J.E. Sawyer and Chris Avelone) are working on this.


oh by the way, help us to get a Fallout Forum! : http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055918066

Anyone know any solid information about the special edition? I know Game aren't taking pre-orders yet and I've heard that it's exclusive to Gamestop.
