Wal-Mart sent me New Vegas earlier today. Played it before class some, going to play it after dinner. Suck it down, fags.
Yeah, if it's the console version, who gives a shit. 10,000 people had it before you.Turisas said:Console version.

It's like saying:
"Hey guys I got some awesome new wheels today...
a tricycle."

The controls on the PC aren't retarded, for one. Performance will be better plus the first batch of mods shouldn't take too long to arrive since it should be pretty straightforward to port some of the stuff from FO3, such as a better UI.
And PC version has better graphics!
Turisas said:The analog sticks are terrible for aiming. You get used to them, yeah, but the fact is that they'll never be even close to as precise and smooth as a mouse is. Not that it matters as much for non-FPS games (cue the 'durr hurr but that's what NV is'), but it's still annoying. And from what I've seen from streams and other preview content, the performance on the 360 is far from smooth all the time, so it's just not the loading times.

Someone made a video showing off Fallout NV for the PS3. It ran at 10 FPS or something. I was gonna post the link, but ZeniMax has already managed to remove all evidence.

More fun than Fallout 3. Definitely better written, some bad voice acting, but writing is better. More western aesthetics.
Some issues where people run up to you and talk to you randomly giving you information you haven't seen. I was walking up to a town and a guy came out of nowhere to be like "Did you just see that? I had these caps and this bitch wanted them" and there was a second thing involving those caps in the Mojave Outpost.
A few glitches here and there, nothing earth-shattering.
Playing in Hardcore mode. Stimpacks being slow makes combat more difficult, and having limbs broken is a pain in the ass, as it should be, I suppose. Doing food, water, and sleep is very easy to keep up with though. Maybe that's because I'm on normal difficulty, who knows.
Plethora of weapons and things to repair with, so no issues there.
Haven't seen New Vegas yet. Killed the fuck out of Powder Gangers, and fought some Caesar's Legion people and helped NCR a little.
Game definitely has a "do what you want" feel to it. I set out from Goodsprings after doing some intro things and did all kinds of stuff that I wanted. Got into trouble, but managed to survive. Caesar's Legion and the Powder Gangers hate me. Although Caesar's Legion doesn't really attack me on sight, might be glitch or they just happen to not care about me. Until I try to save some people they kidnapped.
I'm level 7 now and barely scratched the surface of the game, but again, been going around and doing what I want.
But there is one problem where people randomly die, like I failed a quest because someone died who I didn't even know was around. He was surrounded by radscorpions and killed as I fought them.
C&C is unknown at this juncture. Though there is the reputation system which has worked with the Powder Gangers hating me, but as said before, some Caesar's Legion people ignore me.
Shooting with iron sights is much better, shooting in general is much better. You still run around like you're floating on air though, no weight to your character. You knock into shit every so often, and when you exit or enter buildings, bodies flop around.
Yes it is the 360 version, baww if you want. Either way, still playing it before you all, and not with a torrent.
So far its grade is a fun out of fun.
Sounds like an Obsidian game to me.back to sportforredneck said:Some issues
