TIME IS RUNNING OUT !!

Last year I stated [link] the disappointment of Fallout 3 from 2008 left me in no hurry to pick up a copy of  New Vegas. The initial reviews for FO3:NV looked promising but that quickly changed with a barrage of negativity about the game’s technical problems. To make things worse, I also had an aging computer setup that would have left me running the game on mid-level or low end graphics settings, yet one more reason buying this game quickly got filed under the “why bother” category for me.

…Fast forward one year and mix in a new pc.. Booyah Babuh! FO3:NV rocks like nobody’s business! Since I took forever to get my hands on a copy, it appears the developers had time to patch all the technical issues everyone complained about. So far I have had zero problems. The quality of the storyline and general content of FO3:NV is ridiculously better than Bethesda’s work on Fo3, it really shines with competent story telling from Obsidian Entertainment. I would love to have seen what these guys could have come up with for the Capital Wasteland, I imagine it would have been light years better than anything Bethesda squeezed out.

Naturally it still wouldn’t be a great PC Game without a lot of mods from the community to make it ever so much better, stock games are usually bland at best.
