Fallout: NV is developed by the original Fallout creators. Anyone who's played Fallout 2 knows this is a very, very good thing.

However, it's using Fallout 3's engine. Anyone who's played Fallout 3 knows this is a very, very good thing.

All the videos I've seen make it look a bit ty. Clunky graphics and glitchy movement are not things I expect to see in a game nowadays. However, these videos were done ages ago, and I firmly expect the actual release to be sexy as hell. There are a lot of new features in NV that 3 didn't have. The Fallout 2 reputation system is back, so I look forward to the various playstyles this will accommodate. Hopefully it'll end up being more than just a good guy vs. bad guy thing. What I'm most looking forward to is the survival system. You're in a post-apocalyptic desert area, and if you don't keep yourself watered, you gon die. It'd be interesting to see what this is like on the harder settings. Apparently they're really gonna make it interesting.
