That review was garbage on so many levels and I left a comment which I usually never do.

not if your a console user

What. I just now noticed. He says the story of Fallout 3 touched him deeply. What. What. What.

What is this, I don't even

Precisely what I meant.

lol either he's never played the game or he's [censored]

All he did was whine about the graphics and it feels like fallout 3, but these issues I have little concern about so its all good.




"In addition to the graphics feeling a bit dated, Fallout New Vegas' story just never hit home with me the way that Fallout 3's did. Maybe it was the fact that Fallout 3 was my first title in the series to have ever played so I didn't really know what to expect and was pleasantly surprised. This one not so much."

Really?

Fail review. He didnt even talk about gameplay just mechnaics.

I loved fallout 3. It is probably the game i have spent the most time playing in my life. I loved it so much that if NV was just FO3 in a different setting like it is I would still love it. I wouldn't have even cared if they just kept coming out with DLC. I just think because it is a new game some people are going to want it to be completely updated with all new mechanics and everything in it. The new factions and companion wheel among other things might not be enough for some people, but to me and probably most fans of the series it is enough. As long as there are tons of things to explore and collect and lots of side quests to do most people will be happy with it.

Well, confirmed that it's a fake

Well, http://www.ihighfive.com/ ^_^

Okay, now I can make sense of it. We got trolled.

Edit: Or this "Obsidian Entertainment" in the comments is lying. Possible.

If you guys go down into the comments section you will see that Obsidian posted and completely invalidated this "review". This guy has never played the game, he never was given a review copy by Obsidian.


edit:ninja'd

My hands too big

Depends on the size of your monitor. Mine is too big. ^_^
€: Tehe, how did you confuse that?

Can it be confirmed that it was indeed and in fact obsidian entertainment that posted? Could someone have just registered under Obsidian Entertainment and then posted? I think this could have happened. Doesn't feel so "official" yet.

Because it's hard to type in Obsidian Entertainment as your name?

By the way, I'm Barack Obama.





The "review" certainly looks fake, it doesnt say ANYTHING about the game, you could of written that review from a screenshot

lol

Pretty evident the review is screwed up, even if that isn't really Obsidian posting in the comments section. (And really, you can type any name you want to use to post a comment on the site.)

First, in the comments section, the reviewer says he got the game Friday night.

Review went live at 3:26 AM this morning. 1 day. He only had the game for 1 day. That makes everything he says a little suspect, as even if he did play the game, he rushed through it.

Second, he contradicts himself. He loves that they didn't change what worked in FO3, and he hates that they didn't change the game more.

"The differences are so small between Fallout 3 and New Vegas aside from the setting of course, that it's hard to really appreciate any changes to the structure of the title because they are fairly minuscule."

That was listed as one of the reasons he liked the game. Then later:

"Alongside the dated graphics the overall controls and feel for the game feel dated as well. This game feels like Oblivion with guns, which was not a completely bad thing but with such an awesome premise and huge following you would think that a little more investment would be made in bringing a new and improved experience. "

As a reason he hated the game. And he says he loves FO3. So if the above quote is true for New Vegas, shouldn't it be true for FO3 that he loved?

He just really sounds butt-hurt that the game isn't using the Crysis or Rage engine and rocking DX11.

This site may have not gotten a review copy but they said they got it from their local store, and I have heard that some store's have put it on the shelves...................................if that's true or not I don't know but I'm sure not every retailer follows the rules.

Although, it's probably not Obsidian Entertainment that posted the comment, the review really seems fake. All the information is stuff you could have found out by following the development of the game (I know I did). It doesn't reveal anything or give out some small spoilers by way of examples. Usually reviews do this, even when very poorly written.

Anyway, reviewers aren't the ones to get your opinion from (I supposed you can read a bunch and try to weed out the bias, but easier to do that with player comments- not on this forum, though).

Oh I agree, the review does seem sketchy and fake. Seems like a "stunt" to generate traffic. But we'll see soon enough on Oct. 19th.

Might have never been given a review copy but there are people playing the game all over youtube.

Back in the day I would pay attention to reviews but not now.
With the sheer scale of game releases you often get lazy reviews.
Games like GT4 got 10/10 type reviews even though I personally thought it was a big disappointment .

I stopped reading here. Even I know 3 isn't the first game in the series.
