Awesome item, Definitely worth the price!!! By Sergei Ismailoff
I should state that i did not get this game through amazon, I picked it up at gamestop, that being said the collectors edition of Fallout: New Vegas is very worth the price! I have never bought a collectors edition for any game before but i just had to when i found out about NV. Everything that comes with the CE is high quality, from the graphic novel to the poker chips and playing cards. The only thing i am just a little upset about is the "making of" dvd because obsidian had basically already released it in small parts (you can look them up on the internet). The poker chips included are a nice touch and are high quality, even weighted to feel like real las vegas chips, and the playing cards are nice quality as well (though i dont think i will use them). all in all it was very worth the extra 20 dollars over the regular. I would recommend this to all fans of Fallout!New Vegas: A familiar, yet quite enjoyable romp through the Wastelands By student
A lot of people seem to be skeptical about this game, and after having played it for 8 hours straight today, I can assure you that the fears are unfounded. Yes, the game is mechanically a clone of Fallout 3, and it brings with it many of the same issues, but the content in the game makes it easy to overcome the technical issues. This game is NOT Fallout 3; rather, it's a return to the West Coast style of the original Fallout games, and it brings back a lot of the crazy, random events. At any rate, if you loved Fallout 3, you're going to love this. If you hated Fallout 3, this isn't likely to change your opinion. The Collector's Edition follows in the excellence of the Fallout 3 CE, offering high quality, weighted poker chips, a deck of high quality playing cards, a making of DVD and an excellent comic book adaptation of the New Vegas universe. Overall, definitely worth the price.Great Value, Great Game By John D. Ryan
This game is quite simply incredible. It overshadows Fallout 3 in every aspect, including the things people were complaining about in that the graphics are actually much better and the wasteland does not look at all similar to fallout 3 (i have no idea what people are takling about with that). This game also has a more realistic feel and the new features everyone already knows about (so i wont go into them) live well up to the hype. The main complaint i heard about this game is that it is game-breakingly buggy with poor framerates and horrifically bad load times. I guess there is truth in this for some people, but quite honestly i am about 10-15 hrs in and i have not experienced a bad load time, a poor framerate, any freezes, or glitches; i must have hit the jackpot, fitting for vegas. Some people said that the glitches are probably exclusive to older consoles but i have the original Xbox 360 and no problems at all.
Put simply, there is nothing in this game that is WORSE off than it was in Fallout 3. People who jumped on board after Fallout 3 will enjoy this game and get the opportunity to see what the real fallouts were about; but there are also neat little inclusions from 3: two examples being Ed-E, an eyebot who came from Adams Airforce Base and the skillbook for the new skill survival, which is conveniently called the "wasteland survival guide". Old school fans who were a disappointed in the direction Bethesda took the franchise, you will feel back at home here, most importantly to me: MARCUS IS BACK BABY!!! I will go as far as calling this the REAL Fallout 3. Side note: calling this an expansion is flat out idiodic.
On the subject of the collectors edition, all the additions are neat, my favorite being the deck of cards, which is an old school looking deck with each card picturing a different person or faction. The poker chips are actually legit feeling and the Lucky 38 platinum looks awesome design wise, and suprisingly to me was actually made out of some kind of metal (i though it would be plastic). Havnt got around to reading the comic or watching the DVD yet but they seem cool. I also pre-ordered from Gamestop so i got it on time (sorry amazon shoppers)
All in all this game exceeded all my expectations and if you want to compare, it is far superior to Fallout 3. Hope for a copy that isnt too glitchy.
