In the promised land of sin and vice in the middle of the Mojave desert, you play a courier traveling to the New Vegas Strip to deliver a mysterious poker chip when suddenly. While New Vegas never reaches to mind-blowing heights of its predecessor's groundbreaking debut, the storytelling and character interaction far surpass most of the elements in Fallout 3 by a good margin. An enormous open world with seemingly infinite potential was beset by buggy gameplay and somewhat lackluster storytelling in its prime moments. The benchmark was set high when Fallout 3 hit store shelves in 2008. Ok! It is largely the same damn game, but the time and effort that was spent on the game engine and world of Fallout 3 is now transferred to the writing and story of New Vegas and to be honest, there are many cases where the glitz and glam of New Vegas often shines brighter than the doom and gloom of Fallout 3. New Vegas may use the same engine as Fallout 3. I wouldn't knock anyone for using the backhanded "Fallout 3.5" moniker at first glance. New Vegas shares much more than the visual aesthetics of Fallout 3. If you find it difficult to distinguish between screenshots from Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, you wouldn't be the only one. New Vegas, a radio DJ that offers a glint of hope in a time of darkness. My personal favorite is Wayne Newton serenading listeners over the radio waves as Mr. From nerd favorites like Felicia Day and Michael Dorn to more mainstream talent like Matthew Perry and Zach Levi, the entire cast of New Vegas doesn't miss a beat and seamlessly blends their characters into the world. I already reported on the big news a few months back, but I will say that I was very impressed with the end result. Many celebrity voice talents signed on to make New Vegas special. It is a great blend of old and new and in many cases actually feels more like the proper sequel to the PC originals than Fallout 3. So it was quite surprising to learn that Fallout: New Vegas honors the spirit of the past while simultaneously dropping a few sacred cows. It is a Fallout tradition to use the "War never changes" line as the opening of the game (or game review.) It is also tradition to play a Fallout game as a vault dweller. We all know that Ron Perlman's iconic opening line of dialogue personifies what the Fallout series is known for: bleakness and despair warping the familiar.
I don't really think I need to at this point. Now would be the time when I say something about how war never changes.
