Fallout New Vegas is widely regarded as not only the best game in the Fallout franchise, but one of the best RPGs ever made. It was an incredible achievement for Obsidian Entertainment - especially considering the game was developed in just 18 months. New Vegas went on to sell over 11 million copies and still has a lasting impact to this day.
