Fallout: New Vegas

[skawarrior]

I've just got this after returning from my Holiday and what with catching up on all the stuff I would have done over half term had I been here I've not had much time to play. In the hour or so I've managed to get in the game is fantastic if you can see past the many bugs and glitches. The only changes from Fallout 3 are minor aspects of the RPG elements no major graphical enhancement or major difference in the gameplay. Having loved Fallout 3 its exactly what I wanted and hardcore mode for me is the best thing about the game. It's ups the difficulty of the game overall without just making combat stupidly hard.

 

Anyone else playing it yet?

Playing it on my laptop. The missus won't let me use the PS3 until we move house and turn the spare bedroom into a 'games' room, so I obtained a copy for my laptop and hooked my PS3 controller up to it using the built in bluetooth.

 

Works better like that anyway as I can now watch football and play FNV at the same time

 

Loving the game though.

Never knew you could do that, thanks (although I use my xbox controller on pc currently)

Yeah, I used this download here:

Apparently all Games for Windows come with Xbox 360 controller support, and with that tool you can quickly choose an option to emulate a 360 controller with your PS3 controller. Also allows customisation, for instance the PS3's triggers and back buttons are upside-down compared to the 360, so I tweaked my controller setup to mimick this.
