As you trek across the treacherous Mojave Wasteland, you'll need to keep your senses sharp for what may be lurking around the next corner. Your goal is to make a name for yourself, but beware — in New Vegas, fortunes can change in an instant. Welcome to Vegas. New Vegas.

As you battle across the heat-blasted Mojave Wastelands, the colossal Hoover Dam, and the neon-drenched Vegas Strip, you'll meet a colorful cast of characters, power-hungry factions, mutated creatures and much more. Choose sides in the upcoming war or declare "winner takes all" and crown yourself the King of New Vegas in this follow-up to the 2008 videogame of the year, Fallout 3.For the first time in one package, this Ultimate Edition offers you all the fun of the original Fallout: New Vegas game, plus the full suite of action-packed add-on content, including Dead Money, Honest Hearts, Old World Blues and Lonesome Road.

The Best New Vegas Experience
on March 18, 2012
Posted by: SilentWitn3ss
from Manchester, United Kingdom
First off, this game is great for anyone who has already played New Vegas, and wants to start a new game; or anyone looking to play for the first time.
If you have a previously saved game, load it up, and the DLC's will pop up as radio signals.
If you don't, start a new game, and it'll do the same.
This is the same great game, plus 4 DLC's, and some weapon add ons, which are awesome, because you get some sick weapons at the start of the game.
The story is still awesome, with plenty of side missions to keep you occupied for quite some time.
The graphics and sound are great for such a big game, and the loading screens are interesting, and not boring at all, which is a great feature.
There's loads of NPC's and things to loot, so keep an eye out.
Overall, this is the best experience for a newcomer to New Vegas, or a returning player, and I strongly recommend it.
What's great about it: Story, new weapons, new characters, DLC, new areas, short loading screens, etc.
What's not so great: A few minor bugs, just like the original game. Nothing major at all.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The ground shakes with rumbles from an explosion down the street. You hear disembodied shouts from your teammates. Bullets whiz by your helmet and explode on the wall behind you, sending chunks of concrete and rubble flying through the air. You're focused on your mission, but time seems to stop for a moment as you feel your weapon in your hand. Another bullet bursts against the wall, this time closer — and louder. That got your attention. There's no time for zoning out in the red zone. Meet back up with your team and make it off the Battlefield alive.Featuring the powerful Frostbite 2 engine, Battlefield 3 utilizes every ounce of power to provide the most immersive shooter experience you've ever known. Get ready to hold your ground on the front lines of a global conflict, and keep your finger on the trigger as the missions take you from city streets in New York and Paris to the relentless desert sands of Tehran. Take on the enemy by yourself in single player, or team up with a friend for intense co-op missions. Featuring the all-new Battlelog system, you can easily find your friends, socialize and track your progress. When your skills are battle-tested, load up for a 24-player online multiplayer mode, where you'll strap on the boots of a frontline infantry soldier and pilot powerful battle machines like Engineering EOD bots, tanks, jets and more. Fall in, Soldier — you're about to head out to the Battlefield once again.

Battlefield 3 > Modern Warfare 3
on December 27, 2011
Posted by: SilentWitn3ss
from Manchester, United Kingdom
If you're trying to decide whether to buy this or Modern Warfare, you should definitely choose this.
The story: The plot line is decent, it'll keep you wanting to play. However, the missions are awesome. They make you feel as if you're actually in battle with realistic, challenging gameplay.
I wasn't a huge fan of Bad Company 1 or 2, but this game is amazing to me. So, even if you didn't like Bad Company, there's a good chance you'll still like this.
The graphics are incredible, some of the most detailed I've seen in games yet. From environments, weapons, explosions, and everything in between, this game looks stunning.
The sound is also incredible, making it feel as if you're actually there. Explosions are loud and intimidating, bullets wiz by your head. All of it sounds amazing.
And most importantly, the multiplayer: The multiplayer is the biggest highlight of the game.
Well drawn out maps make battles immense and hectic. There's hundreds of things to unlock. Needless to say, you'll be playing for hours and hours on end.
What's great about it: Graphics, Sound, Multiplayer
What's not so great: A little too challenging at some points

Beyond Amazing
on December 4, 2011
Posted by: SilentWitn3ss
from Manchester, United Kingdom
It's hard for me to give a game a 5/5, but this one deserves it.
First off, you might want to say goodbye to your social life before buying this game, because it'll be gone.
Not only is Skyrim's main story pretty lengthy, all of the side quests, lone wandering, places to discover, ect., will add about 300+ hours.
Skyrim is huge, with over 300 places to discover, it'll take you quite a bit to find them all. Which is great.
The graphics are beyond beautiful. This game is designed to be looked at as a whole. That being said, the mountains, grass, trees, ect. are all very detailed.
There's 70 NPCs, so there's plenty of people to talk to/get quests from.
There's thousands of items to loot, and you can look at all in full detail.
The favorites menu is very well thought of.
And the sound is exceptional. The soundtrack plays in the background throughout the whole game, matching every sequence perfectly.
If you've heard a rumor about the PS3 glitching about 30 hours in, it hasn't happened to me. They've patched it. But just in case, you might want to delete all your old Skyrim saved files to save room.
There really is no way to review this whole game. But, for your sake, but it. 5/5 easily.
What's great about it: Story, Gameplay Hours, Graphics, Sound, ect.
What's not so great: Some long loading screens, and texture pop-ins
I would recommend this to a friend!

Modern Warfare 2.5, Still Fun
on November 12, 2011
Posted by: SilentWitn3ss
from Manchester, United Kingdom
Everyone's giving this game bad reviews, because it's pretty much the same thing as MW2 and Black Ops.
While this is true, it's still a fun game, with millions of people playing it.
Battlefield 3 and MW3 are different games, but both successful in their own ways.
If you like fast paces action, then MW is for you. If you like more realistic settings, then get Battlefield.
You can't argue that even though MW2 was frustrating, it had you playing for hours and hours upon end. This game will too.
With some new weapons, new maps, new killstreaks, ect. This game is entertaining.
So what, the graphics are the same. They aren't that bad at all.
The story is still decent, with some new characters and new places.
And yeah, Elite is 50.00, but you don't have to sign up for it. I sure as hell didn't.
In conclusion, this game is fun, exciting, and adrenaline pumping. You can't really expect anything new after MW1 and MW2 being the same. No it's not perfect. But that doesn't mean you won't play for 6 hours straight the day you buy it.
What's great about it: Multiplayer, Easy Controls, New Weapons & Maps,
What's not so great: Some Frustration, Some Cheap Kills

Amazing Game
on October 17, 2011
Posted by: SilentWitn3ss
from Manchester, United Kingdom
There's not that many games I would rate a 5/5, but for this one, I would.
Mass Effect is pretty much excellent in every way. Storyline, voice acting, dialog, shootouts, graphics, sound, characters, designs, ect. There's so many places to explore, so many things to interact with, and so many missions, this game will have you going for hours. Every place you go to is uniquely designed, and looks awesome. The only slight complaint I have is the loading screens, they take a bit. I understand it's because there's so much to load, but still, it's nothing too serious. There also aren't any frame rate issues at all, which is crazy for how massive the landscapes are. For $20, plus add on content, this is a must have if you're into RPG's or 3rd Person Shooters.
What's great about it: Storyline, voice acting, dialog, shootouts, graphics, sound, characters, designs, ect.

Addicting, Fun, And Gory

I'm a huge zombie fan. So, I was excited for this game since it was first announced.
Within this enormous map, there are plenty of quests and side-quests to keep you going for hours and hours on end, which is an awesome touch.
Also, this game is extremely addictive. I found myself playing for a week straight, without really focusing on anything else.
The weapons range from a simple stick, to a deadly assault rifle, and everything in between.
I know this game gets some stuff about how it's really repetitive and all that, but if you're a fan of zombies, FP games, and endless quests, I reccomend this game.
What's great about it: Length, Weapons, Graphics, Sound, ect.
What's not so great: Glitchy textures here and there, some voice acting, not much else

Flawless Victory

I have to say, my 5 starts IS NOT exaggerated.
This is one of the best games I've played in a while.
For $20, this is worth every penny.
Amazing graphics, story, boss fights, weapons, gameplay, ect.
You could say it's almost perfect.
You might be thinking the 15 minute cut scenes are too long;
and I'll admit, I though that too before I played, but they're awesome.
Such good graphics, and action.
Like watching a movie.
I'll say, I'm a fan of Splinter Cell, Uncharted 2, and Alpha Protocol.
So I like stealth stuff, and you need to get this.
Metal Gear Online is just another perfection addition to MGS4.
Insane 3rd person shooter.
Buy this.
What's great about it: Gameplay, action, story, cutscenes, stealth, graphics, ect.
What's not so great: I'm not a huge fan of Boss battles.

Okay, I'll go ahead and say;
this game got average reviews.
But, if you like espionage games, then you have a chance of liking this one.
The fact that you can go in like Sam Fisher and take guys out stealthy is cool.
Or you can just be Max Payne and shoot people is good too.
And your options can drastically change the gameplay, which is amazing.
This game has some down-sides too, and alot...
Fighting, graphics, AI, voice acting, ect.
I would rent it first.
But if you liked Mass Effect, or any espionage game, I recommend this.
What's great about it: Options.
What's not so great: Graphics, AI, fighting, voice acting.

I love the GTA series, epspecially 4. So, I kew I would like this, and I was right.
I personally like The Ballad of Gay Tony more than Lost and the Damned. Just because of the parachutes, and cars.
Both stories are incredible, with amazing action and graphics.
The legnth and challenge just make it that much better.
Sure, there are some minor bugs/glitches, but that doesn't matter.
Get this game.
What's great about it: Stories, Guns, Cars, Legnth, Challenge, Graphics, ect.
What's not so great: There are some minor glitches/bugs. And sometimes it's a little too challenging.

Amazing. A must have,

Posted by: SilentWitn3ss
Alright, to start off, this is a must have for a Ps3 owner.
The story & the Multiplayer are both incredible, outstanding even.
It will having you play for hours and hours.
Eventually you might get tired of the Multiplayer. But you will def want more.
The Maps will get boring, sometimes.
But leveling up makes you keep playing. And the weapons are insane.
Not to mention Special Ops.
The story is amazing, (I know I've already said that)
Must have this game. :D
What's great about it: The story, Multiplayer, weapons.
What's not so great: The Maps will eventually get boring.
