Fallout: New Vegas - Playstation 3 Ultimate Edition

Let me preface this by saying I really loved playing Fallout New Vegas and this review will compare it to Fallout 3 a lot and make some complaints. But that's because Fallout 3 was such an amazing experience that fallout the series is now held up to ridiculously high standards. Fantastic game. However it always felt (and still does years later) like a really big DLC download that they should never have charged $ 60 for initially. The game was basically fallout 3 with a few tweaks that could have easily been implemented via patches to Fallout 3. Aiming down the sights was great and much needed, making the gun fighting better and more FPS like. Being able to mod your guns was also a welcomed change. The story line never felt as epic as Fallout 3's. It's ok but no where on the level of FO3. I felt that the game could have given you more missions as a legionnaire. And speaking of factions, the game instead of focusing on karma like in FO3 focuses more on which factions you're friends with. So you could be a huge thieving, cannibalizing dirt bag with low karma but the NCR troops will be friendly towards you and say hi because you've attacked Ceaser's Legion. A silly oversight. As for the DLC for this game, the Dead Money DLC is god awful. There's a mist that permeates large portions of the level and it automatically kills you. There's lots of other things that kill you and some holograms that are invincible. So no matter your level or skill, you'll be dying a lot the first time you go through it. I did and it was very frustrating. The worst is at the end....it's such a tease. The other DLCS: Honest Hearts- Not bad, no real interesting items, armor, outfits added Old World Blues- Rather fun DLC, new interesting weapons, new perks, funny dialogue. This was probably by favorite DLC of the bunch. There's also a lot of upgrades and perks you can earn through this. Lonesome Road- My second favorite of the DLC. Lots of new weapons and armor in this one. The story was a bit weak and a let down to me based on the build up and mystery of who the other courier was and his whole story etc. Base game, plus 4 DLC packs and a greatest hits discount? If you've never played this game get it. It's hundreds of hours of entertainment for a super low cost. I can't wait for Fallout 4.

I bought Fallout New Vegas the day it came out, and I loved the familier gameplay mechanics, such as the VATS, Perks, etc. One of the things that sold this game for me, was the moment i learned it was taking place in the Mojave Wastes, which i thought was a nice change of setting, seeing as how i played Fallout 3 (which was on the East Coast) non-stop. I specifically bought The Ultimate edition, because I lost my copy of New Vegas, and i didn't want to pay individualy for dlc, plus i had poor internet, so going into the Playstation store was difficult in the first place. Anyway, continuing with my review, The Ultimate Edition is the copy you should buy if your new to the Fallout franchise, heres why. 1. All DLC is on the disc, so no hassle for buying it on Xbox Live, Playstation store, or Steam. 2. One of the many things that the dlc add is a plethora of new weapons, armor, and crafting recipes. For example, The Couriors Stash DLC adds several new armors and weapons that are perfect if your into role-playing. My character wears a light Leather armor set, and is armer with a sturdy caravan Shotgun. This is perfect for Lets Players and Role-Playing fanatics, because it further lets tweak the look of your character to give him his own unique look, and in turn, that could reflect his back story. 3. The Gun Runners Arsenal Pack adds a plethora of new weapons, as well as weapon mods. Some weren't even part of the original game, like an M1 Garand! It also makes it that weapons already in the game, like a Carbine Rifle, its hard to explain really, but it adds a (GRA) signifiing that its part of the dlc pack. 4. New areas to explore! :D I haven't delved into the DLC Areas, like the Divide from Lonsome Road, or Mt. Zion from Honest Hearts, or the Sierra Madre Resort and Casino in Dead Money, but new areas means new loot, and new loot means new enemies, and new enemies equal L.O.T.S. of EXP! Plus it adds to the role-playing experiance. 5. In the base game, you had to travel to a Workbench to make stuff, like Bottlecap mines and Stimpaks, and to Reloading Benchs to make ammo for your guns. But...with the added edition of one of the dlc's-I dont know which-the Floating Robot ED-E becomes a mobile reloding AND workbench! This is a god-send, because before i got the dlc, more than once I found my self out of ammo and Stimpaks, and a s*** ton of ingredients to make them, but no place to make them at! But once you repair ED-E to functioning compainion condition, he becomes not only a flying lazer-turret and a pack-mule to carry all your stuff, but a useful tool to help you create ammo, medicine, and the like to help you survive! And thats just about everything there is to the Ultimate Edition of Fallout New Vegas, even without the dlc its a helluva lot of fun, and I'd recomend anything by Bethesda to anyone! :) ( P.S. There is one little thing i forgot to mention, the game has a hardcore mode to it, and it makes things like food, water and sleep a must to survive. A cool little thing is the Vault 13 Canteen, which satisfies your thirst. Just a cool little mechanic that i thought you should know about! :D)

Un muy buen juego!!! En si el paquete vino bien envuelto y el juego en si sellado, es uno de mis favoritos de la saga de fallout.

日本語版と違い､バグもフリーズもほぼ皆無と言ってもいいです｡その為､長時間のプレイが可能となっています｡ ストーリーの内容が､あらかた頭に入っていて､快適にプレイしたい人には､お勧めです｡

Had everything it described in the title New vegas with all the fixings I feel like god across the Mojave

Simply love it, best fallout game I have played so far, there are some bugs but the world building, the quest, the lore, the variety of weapons, the gameplay, everything else make up for it.

A five star game but with many bugs which diminished the overall enjoyment to 4 stars.
