One of the things I hate most about Obsidian Entertainment is they always make crappy sequels to successful games developed by better studios.

Examples:

Kotor II

NeverWinter Nights 2

and now Fallout: New Vegas

And when they make these crappier sequels, Obsidian is always sure to use MOST if not ALL of the same assets, character models, textures, ideas, etc.

That's what Obsidian does. They generally don't bring anything new to the table, they usually only make improvements to the obvious flaws of their predecessors, and then they assume they've done an amazing job worthy of purchase.

Yeah, I was hoping this game wasn't a copy of Fallout 3, but the graphics sure make it seem that way. Supposedly, the actual Las Vegas city has been reconstructed and is more vibrant, so we'll have to wait and see until that's revealed ;).

Given that Fallout 3 was one of the only two games I'd give 10/10 (the other being Littlebigplanet with Uncharted 2 coming very close) I'd obviously be more than happy with more of the same but I do have to admit I'd hoped for a big improvement in graphics, which doesn't seem to be the case. I'm surprised they're even using the same faces (like the old guy face) for the characters. I understand the need to stick to a few face templates for all of the game's characters but man, I'm kinda sick of looking at them and would've thought they could at least change it up a little between games.

And if the quests are mirrors of the first one it will be like paying 60 bucks for an expansion pack. I really hope they are going to surprise us.

I'm not holding my breath, though. I can see it now: part of the area will be "Little Lamp Shade" Stores will look the same, weapons, etc.

The only reason I am willing to accept Bethesda letting this go is for the hope that they needed the time, assets and manpower to put out a new Elder Scrolls. That would make eveything all right.

Fallout Anthology Edition Looks Pretty S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.

It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did

They included physical disc back then

Fallout: New Vegas Is A Mojave Marvel

James at HPP writes: "Swapping out a nuclear Washington DC for a rechristened Las Vegas known as New Vegas, this Obsidian Entertainment-developed sequel propels the hallmarks of Fallout 3 to greater heights, thus becoming the ultimate progenitor."
