It’s a more vibrant post-apocalyptic wasteland, but still tinged with the melancholy, desolate tone that defines the Fallout series. Fallout 3 was a sea of blues and greys, but New Vegas sizzles with oranges and reds. This part of the United States wasn’t bombed quite so heavily, and has retained some colour and life over the centuries. The Mojave is a far cry from the grim, shattered ruins of the Capital Wasteland.
