Those mines are a real pain in the ass for people like me that MUST check every single room before leaving.
"Oh, there's nothing in this room so let's go check the kitchen!" *click* "Wait what was that sou..."*KABOOM*
I went scavenging through a house and all I got was this lousy crippled leg...

"If - this -is -a dreeeeeam.....let me go on dream-ing." Anyone know what song that is? Many internet searches have failed me. Sounds like we could fade to black and run the "Matthew Weiner" credit on Madmen. Great music, much like the last game.

Characters and writing take a nice jump once you get to Freeside. Maybe its because everyone outside and farther away from the strip have very bland yokel personalities.

Around 4 hours played - three lockups now, including two in less than 20 minutes.
Whoever compared this game's performance to the FO3 GOTY version was spot on. It's just like that.

Slim360 with the game installed on HD: actually run more smoother than F3 did on my old (first on market) 360 Elite. Loading time are short enough and after 5 hours I never encounter a bug. Lucky me because I know Bethesda (since Daggerfall) and I know Obsidian's pedigree very well so i expect much more problems.
Love the game so far and love the new radio stations. Feel like the same game but with a completely different vibe. I Love F3 but what the fuck at how depressing at times is. In Vegas is not the case anymore, sky is blue and plants popped trough the desert remember us in this fucking hell life miraculously still. A much more relaxing experience in my opinion.
By the way, love to play on my pc, especially games only for pc like Stalker, Total War, every city builder, but reading this topic also remind me how i hate all this .ini chichat who completely ruin vg forums when a game like this arrives on shelves. I want to know and share with you stories not rigs and benchmark numbers!

I'm surprised at all the Fallout 3 music still included in the game. I would've expected them to go the completely original route, so having a bleak/hopeful Fallout 3 song breaking through the sombre New Vegas tunes is kinda strange.

Wacky Wasteland Spoilers!!!!!!
So glad I played WW, they are treats to find. Many more, but those are the recents.
I came out of the robot factory near Freeside, and three old ladies in polka dot dresses and rolling pins came up and started killing me. WTF were they?!
Also, Cottonwood Cove on the wall... Romanes Eunt Domus

What do you mean? I usually fill up, then go to each container in the room (my fallout hotel is more organized than my bedroom :lol) and fill it with the stuff I'm dumping off. Which includes 100+ of ammo, 10+ different items types etc in a single "trade." No problems.
Anyone know what the deal is with the difficulty setting? In F3 I bumped it up to hard but I was getting way too much XP for each kill and didnt want to hit the level cap too soon.
Im playing on hardcore mode now in New Vegas and I just checked the settings and Ive been on hard the whole time too. Happy to keep it on hard as its been pretty manageable (apart from the rad scorpions), but if it too gives me too much XP Im gonna flick it down to normal.
Another variable is in F3 I had the swift learner perk like 3 times. I didnt realise that I would never need that much XP. Not sure how theyve changed things for New Vegas though.

Every mod you install needs to be put into the data folder. Either its the one file mods or the UI mods with the folders. Just copy and paste the folders you get to your data folder and you are good to go. If you installed a previous UI mod, copying a new one will just overwrite it.
But check out the other UI mod I posted afterwards:
Gives you also access to every stat on one screen
Playing without that mod is a waste of time..
And new mod that I am going to install when I am back:
Higher blood textures

Welp, I updated my NVIDIA drivers to see if it would make this game run better, and not only does Fallout run worse, but everything on my computer runs slower. Not to mention that the update changed my resolution and the resolution I had my monitor set to is no longer even an option in the control panel. I had to swtich back to the old driver. Fuck yourselves NVIDIA.

Pff, sounds to me like some people are getting a taste of their own "steal all the shit out of everyone's house" medicine. How's it feel to be on the receiving end for once, y'bastards?

Is anyone else noticing some weird shit with the glowing lights from the vegas strip? I'm playing on PS3 and as i approach the strip i will hit a point where half the lights and the "glow" from the town will switch off, if i take a step back it all switches on again. This is not a tiny thing but a really noticable and irritating issue, my gf who never even plays games was laughing her ass off about it.
I am definitely digging this game, but it's so hard to comment on it with any sense of proper perspective right now. The way the game is written and designed, even after several hours, I only feel like I'm scratching the surface of the world and the factions. It's also pretty interesting that Obsidian has put a ton of attention into allowing for multiple solutions to a problem, and not just allowing for multiple outcomes. This really makes each skill feel much more useful.

Just got an Xbox Live update. Any word on what was fixed?
Just took out the NCR Correctional Facility using nothing but brass knuckles and a ton of meds and sarsparilla. Felt good and it serves them right for shooting at me despite my trying to be nice to them.
Holy crap it got tough when I went into the admin building and all of their bodyguards with SMG's tore me to shreds. The nice gauntlet at the end made it worth it though.

Curious - when exactly is the point of no return in terms of choosing sides? I'm trying to do as much as I can to have a save to see all the endings/quest lines.
