Unless both games are as broken and buggy as the original New Vegas was, I'm probably gonna skip. The bugs and crashes are one of the things that have kept me liking New Vegas. You never know when it's gonna crash.
Did you ever play Skyrim on the 360? It sounds like you'd have enjoyed that.
I tried it when I was growing up on 360 but never got far, just like with Fallout 3, New Vegas, and Oblivion. Never got far before stopping for some reason. Still haven't beat F3 or Oblivion, but I have planned on potentially at some point playing my dad's copy of Skyrim on 360. Mostly for things like the enchanting loop glitch thing and a few others.
Though all that has been put on hold because of another game.
If you're interested, you can know exactly when it's going to crash. You can measure the memory usage and know the exact loading screen it will fail.
As a heathen with a single monitor who plays the game in full-screen, I think I'll take my chances with the random crashes. Makes the game more fun, IMO. Especially since I have had a couple random crashes outside loading screens. Game decided to just crash while fighting enemies. Unpredictable, yet oddly amusing because they so rarely happen for me.
