So imagine my delight when Obsidian Entertainment’s Fallout: New Vegas came out. I didn’t much care for the loose mechanics, dated graphics, or the mediocre DLC, but I still sunk countless hours into it. Of course, fast-forward to 2008, when Fallout 3 released, and I fell in love with the setting. Luckily, Bethesda gave away free copies of the first Fallout on Steam recently, so I’ll be able to give it a shot soon! Now I find myself regretting that judgment. Back then, I had it in my mind that games like that weren’t any good. Fallout always looked interesting to me it being one of those games I’d see in a CD jewel case in Wal-Mart for $15, but I never ended up buying it. Ain’t that a kick in the head? Or rather, a 9mm bullet.įallout: New Vegas has long been a favorite of mine, along with other titles such as those from the Mass Effect and Deus Ex franchises.
