I have loved the series since the first game. I liked Fallout 3 a LOT, but for different reasons than the first two.
Fallout 3 was a departure from the more harsh tone of the first two, but not necessarily in a bad way.
From what I've read, Fallout New Vegas is more of a return to the tone of the first two games. I'm very excited to hear that. I enjoy more of the ambiguous nature of what is "good and evil" that was present in the first two.
I am gonna pick up the new one for the PC (so I can get access to the G.E.C.K.). I'll have a review in the days/weeks to come.
Very excited!
