The opening tutorial for Fallout: New Vegas did, to all intents and purposes, look and feel like it was more of an add-on than a new release. This is where I again come back to the subject of déjà vu from my opening line. While my friends and colleagues all looked forward to the release of New Vegas, I couldn’t help but approach the whole situation with more trepidation than excitement.įrom the moment where the broody fanfare rumbled through the speakers, my excitement was rekindled and I started to imagine what I’d have to look forward to from this new game and what aspects would be carried over from Fallout 3. Would they do to the Batman movie franchise what Joel Schumacher did by over saturating the colour palette and sanitising it to the point where it was ultimately unwatchable, or would they step in as the Christopher Nolan and bring with them a darker edge and deeper storyline.
