War. War never changes. When atomic fire consumed the earth, those who survived did so in great, underground vaults. When they opened, their inhabitants set out across ruins of the old world to build new societies, establish new villages, form new tribes. As decades passed, what had been the American southwest united beneath the flag of the New California Republic, dedicated to old world values, democracy and the rule of law.

As the Republic grew, so did its needs. Scouts spread east, seeking territory and wealth, in the dry and merciless expanse of the Mojave Desert. They returned with tales of a city untouched by the warheads that had scorched the rest of the world and a great wall spanning the Colorado River. The NCR mobilized its army and set it east to occupy the Hoover Dam and restore it to working condition. But across the Colorado, another society had arisen under a different flag. A vast army of slaves, forged in the conquest of 86 tribes: Caesar's Legion. Four years have passed since the Republic held the Dam, just barely, against the Legion's onslaught. The Legion did not retreat. Across the River, they gathered strength. Campfires burned, training drums beat. Through it all, the New Vegas Strip has stayed open for business under the control of its mysterious overseer, Mr. House and his army of rehabilitated Tribals and police robots.
You are a courier, hired by the Mojave Express, to deliver a package to the New Vegas Strip. What seemed like a simple delivery job has taken a turn...for the worst.

    "Matthew Perry was such a big fan of Fallout 3 that he gifted Ellen DeGeneres a signed copy of it on her show and had to go to a "hand doctor" because he was playing it too much. This led to him becoming the voice actor for the main antagonist of its sequel, Fallout: New Vegas, as Benny." RIP you absolute legend.

  • @L13utenant
    Truth is... the game was modded from the start.
  • "The game was rigged from the start" I fucking know you shot me in the head and I survived If that's not rigged I don't know what is.

    Fun fact: You can actually find and loot that Raider who gets sniped next to the el rey motel
  • @Sinnathan

  • @ODST_Parker
    There sure is no shortage of drunk NCR soldiers on the strip. Thank God for those Rangers, keeping a peaceful watch.
  • @SteamGrace
    I like how Obsidian beat Bethesda at their own game... literally.
  • @jackiechan5815
    I'm glad that with New Vegas, it's not another story of someone out of a Vault.
  • @acidicali7776
    I love that unlike the other intros, this one doesn’t take time to explain the Great War or the vaults as much, since that’s not the focus. The focus is on new factions, politics, and war.
  • @-CrimsoN-
    I really don't care what anyone else says, Fallout New Vegas is one of the greatest video games of all time. Everything about it is just right.
  • @Healthy_Kawk
    This intro has better dialogue than entire FO4 lol
  • @cgmaster2
    I just realized starting off on the moon in the picture is actually a neat detail about Mr.House's end goal if he wins which is to head to space
  • @catcharide56
    4:25 Matthew Perry not only delivered the best line in Fallout history, but that line serves as the introduction to the greatest video game ever made, period. He was a genuine fan of the franchise and New Vegas would not have been the same without him. Hope you’re swingin’ in heaven, baby.
  • @the-kris5554
    I don't see why everyone keeps saying Matthew Perry did a bad voice acting job - I thought it worked pretty damn well, especially in this scene, fits Benny as the character!
  • @karankenZ
    What a badass intro. Gave me the chills at the end. This isn't a story of a vault dweller. No, this is a part of the dirty wasteland. I'm in it this time. And I'm dead. But I know I'll live, I'm coming for you.
