Revision as of 14:11, 10 March 2011
The Fallout: New Vegas Prima Official Game Guide is a publication by Prima Games. It contains strategies, maps, and walkthroughs that a player may find useful while playing Fallout: New Vegas, as well as some additional background information about the setting and characters.
The hardcover collector's edition includes 32 more pages which include concept art and background information from the developers at Obsidian Entertainment.
Its main author is David S.J. Hodgson, who had previously written the Fallout 3 Official Game Guide.
The paperback edition has a MSRP of $24.99, while the hardcover collector's edition has a MSRP of $34.99. The digital version is priced at $24.99 and is a scan of the paperback edition.
Mistakes and oversights
- The Action Point description states that firing a pistol costs 10 AP, switching between standing and crouching costs 10 AP, firing a rifle takes 25 AP, and firing a Big Gun takes 75 AP. Interestingly enough, the section is a excerpt from Fallout 3's Official Game Guides regarding AP which was also incorrect.
- Some speech dialogue options are left out. For example, in the There Stands the Grass section of the guide, it is not mentioned that with 70 Science you can prevent Keely from deleting the data.
- The third assassination attempt during You'll Know It When It Happens, by the disguised engineer with the knife, is entirely skipped over and ignored.
- The Guide says that the Unique Hunting shotgun, Dinner Bell is located at the Old nuclear test site.
- The Guide fails to include the location of the Duck and Cover! skill book at Ranger station Foxtrot.
- The Guide states that the Powder gangers are involved in the quest Hard Luck Blues, when in fact they have nothing to do with the quest.
- In the walkthrough for the quest Come Fly With Me, the guide states that using the rockets' navigation terminal to cause the rockets to crash into each other will give the player Karma, when in fact the player loses Karma.
- When listing the ways to gain Arcade's trust for the quest For Auld Lang Syne, the guide lists the REPCONN Test Site as being one of the locations the player has to visit to get a reaction from Arcade. However, REPCONN Headquarters is the location the player must visit; the player will get no reaction from Arcade by visting the REPCONN Test Site.
