Many of us remember our different treks through the Captial Wasteland. Interesting characters, a radioactive paradise, and a fierce war between two old enemies. But this isn't the Capital, this is the Mojave Wasteland. A lot of what was in Fallout 3 is back in a slightly different aspect. Sure there are raiders (now in the form of Fiends) and of course there are many of the guns you've known and loved. But there are a lot of new things added. New guns to vaporize/decimate your foes, new terrifying enemies (such as the Cazador GAAHHHHH), new ways to survive, the addition of iron sights, and new fantastic DLC.
Sure the DLC for FO3 was good, some better than others, but all of the DLC for New Vegas easily trumps the priors (Except Point Lookout, that was the ♥♥♥♥.)

So do you dare travel to the west, to a land where things are embroilded in political espionage and brutal dictatorship? If so, come and bet your life on it!
