All of your reviews are excellent, offer great depth, and often interesting illustrations. Kudos for the good work.

I have to ask, though - how did you get to review this so early? Did you get a reviewer's copy, or did you pirate it?

I ordered a copy on ebay and it arrived today. There's nothing to suggest it's a reviewers copy, but it might be.

Very nice review, bought it when the price dropped but Im wondering are you going to follow up with a review on the add on "Dead Money"?

I tried really hard to like this game, I just couldn't. Same with the whole series, I just couldn't get into it.

Good review though.

To each their own and I can understand some people being initially turned off from both Fallout 3 and New Vegas based on the way they open.

Fallout 3 requires you to play for about an hour before escaping the vault and truly entering the game world, but New Vegas sort of plops you in the middle of things from the get-go and can overwhelm you with things to do.

Love this review. I'm playing through the game now, and although I run into freezing/loading issues every few hours of in game time, I'm still in love with it.
