Fallout: New Vegas starts with a courier being shot in the head and left for dead in the Mojave Desert. Rescued by a robot named Victor, you set out to find the man in the checkered suit and the package he stole, a Platinum Chip that could decide the future of the region.
Developed by Obsidian Entertainment and released in 2010, it is often called the best Fallout game thanks to its writing, factions and reactive choices. The Ultimate Edition includes all four story DLCs, such as Dead Money and Old World Blues.

Fallout: New Vegas Gameplay Overview
The Mojave is fought over by the New California Republic, Caesar’s Legion, Mr. House and smaller factions like the Boomers and the Brotherhood of Steel. Your choices raise or lower reputation with each group and lead to dramatically different endings. Character builds use S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats, skills and perks, and dialogue checks often let you talk your way through problems. V.A.T.S. pauses combat to target body parts.
