I played for about 45 minutes, and my general consensus is, if you like Fallout 3, you'll love New Vegas, especially since the writing seems by all accounts to be much tighter.

I'm also enjoying the atmosphere and music a great deal more, and the characters tend to have a tad more... character.

The music in New Vegas DESTROYS Fallout 3's 'music'.

Are you talking ambient music or radio music?

If it's ambient music he's talking about, New Vegas wins hands down. It's nice to hear some of the old tracks from Fallout 1 and 2 as well.
If it's the radio, Fallout 3 still gets it. I never turned Galaxy News Radio off. In New Vegas, I never turn the radio on anymore. The songs are good but too slow for my taste. That and the fact that the tracks are spread across 3 radio stations, so if you listen to the same one for more than 10 minutes you start hearing the same songs. Hell, I heard "Jingle Jangle" twice in a row.
That said, Black Mountain Radio is hilarious.

Ahhh. I actually just slapped a bunch of Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 music into the music folder when playing Fallout 3, since the FO1+2 music was so much better.
Galaxy News... I found it got very repetitive, too. Especially "Butcher Pete", why did it play that song so often? :erg:

Because a song that gratuitously mentions hacking things up is more likely than not to be amusingly appropriate to player actions.
