When I last checked, they put the full game on Live for free as a promotion for Fable 3. |

cat and I like it. a little buggy, but we installed it and lag hasn't been much of a problem. Only one near game breaking thing happened where my character and an ogre kept going invisible (it was an interesting fight to say the least). speaking of bugs, i came across this. it pertains to new vegas and it's funny. |

Also, for some reason, the copy Gamestop sold me had a redeemable code for the Classic Pack in it even though I didn't preorder the game. Huzzah! |

i love it when they do that. i got the useless "you can play as dis guy" code for ODST when it came out. I think they just give it to you if you get it within the first few days to encourage you to come back. |

Game rocks so far. The music is fantastic. Still haven't encountered any bugs or glitches and I've probably played for 10 hours. |

I'm playing on the 360. Finally got to Vegas proper. Like in 3, you start out on the outskirts and have a line of quests that eventually lead you in. I like what they've done with the city. It wasn't hit by a nuke, so it's not like traveling around in DC was. Instead, you have North Vegas which is run down and slummy. North Vegas is what you'd expect of a post-apocalyptic city, complete with sporadic encounters where some thug decides to run out of an alley and attack you (although you can pay 100 caps for "protection" each time you visit the city, where presumably this stops happening. It isn't really a hassle though, especially with a companion who dispatches with them before you even noticed you were under attack). The Strip is surrounded by a perimeter of makeshift walls and you have to present a "passport" (I didn't have one, presumably you can get one through a sidequest) or a "credit check" (show the robot that you have over 2000 caps, he doesn't take any) to show that you're worth letting into the area. They don't just let the riff-raff into the Strip. The New California Republic also controls a monorail on the Strip that links directly to McCarran International Airport, south of the city. One of my favorite changes to the game from 3 so far is the reputation system they have. Each faction and each city have their own opinion of you that affects the way they react to you and how much the merchants sell you stuff for and how much they'll buy your stuff for. Additionally, more sidequests and rewards appear the higher your reputation. After helping some podunk town based around a motel with some of their problems I was able to get a room in said-motel and use it as a house for free. The NCR also allow me to use their monorail to and from the airport and they gave me an Emergency Radio if I need to call in for back-up (it doesn't have a use-function though, so I'm not sure what it does yet). As I said, the music is fantastic. Like Fallout 3 though, the radio gets a little repetitive. This game is going to sell plenty of copies, they really should have splurged for the rights to use more songs. I hope some of the DLCs that come out include more radio songs. Minor complaint though. I've found three radio stations so far: New Vegas Radio, which has news and music. It's the "main" radio station. Next is Mojave Music Radio, which, as far as I can tell, is the same as New Vegas Radio except without the news segments. Thirdly, there's Black Mountain Radio, which is a Country music station that's operated by Super Mutants. Terrific so far. Played for about 5 hours today and still haven't had any bugs or glitches. |

sounds phenomenal. if it still has the similar fallout 3 formula, i'll prolly not pick it up until the price drops a fair amount. i'm very schizophrenic when it comes to these rpg type games. i'll make a certain character, play it for a while and the create a new one, or stop playing for a while, foget where I was, then make a new character. got into a bad loop and eventually just took 3 back to the store. |
