And the scores are abysmal!

The 360 version currently has a meta of 85. 15 points less than I had expected.

I'm bothered by Giant Bomb's quote... "It's not a surprise that Fallout: New Vegas sticks closely to Fallout 3's structure and style. But if it weren't for the game's way-too-long list of technical issues, New Vegas would actually be better than its predecessor. Instead, it's a well-written game with so many issues that some of you might want to take a pass, at least until some of this nonsense gets fixed."

They are not abysmal scores,, they are good scores.

I'd say expected

Fallout 3 itself got bloated scores, I mean compared to other WRPG's it didn't deserve to have a higher META than Dragon Age Origins or ME1..imo

Critics aren't giving this a free pass.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Hmmm... I love Mass Effect. I enjoyed Dragon Age. But I do believe Fallout 3 is better than both of them.

Fallout 3 also sold better than them. Great expansions too!

Not really surprised. It looks like Fallout 3.5

I still wanna play it though. Fallout 3 was really amazing

They are'nt because it looks like a 2004 game and STILL has a ton of bugs

its been confirmed today that GT5 has a weather system, track editor and go karts! seriously i think this is going to be the best selling in the series even beating GT3 sales of 14 million plus!

A Bethesda/Oblivion collaboration is riddled with bugs? I am shocked! SHOCKED!



If it weren't for that Joystiq score it would have an 88.

So I think it will rise a bit.

Still really good scores. I think no one expected it to better than Fallout 3 afterall.



Eh, Bethesda isn't terrible for patching so the technical issues should get fixed.

I'm looking forward to this sometime in the future.
