Topic title explains it all. Oh, and for those who don't know how to look at the hours, just hit the "Load Game" button then point the mouse at your saved game. It's shown there.

Surprisingly, I have been playing exact 23hrs and 5m. There's a saying that goes, "Time enjoyed is time not wasted", so I don't regret wasting that much time for this game :D

Update:

Holy smokes it just increased to 26hrs and 38m. I didn't even noticed it.

I am on 4th playthrough (gettting all possible endings, siding with the available parties) the total time would be about 165 hours...Currently (4th playthrough) i am on my 12th hour. Best game this year!

13 hours

My expression, also :o

Almost 70 hours in, and I'm still far from exploring all the locations and finishing the main quest.

Tell me about it. Everybody around me hates it. I got the game on Midnight release, had the whole week off work (dont tell my boss the reason why)...

I am addicted to where there is no cure for me anymore...

21 hours for me on one game and 15 hours on another game (character).
I am blown away by how much more i like this game then I did Fallout3,, better in every way!

653 hours.

I have a feeling you just calculated the amount of time it's been out...

Anyway, I'm only about 4 hours in. It's pretty sweet so far though. I like the music better than FO3.

According to steam I have been playing it for 94 hours, although that is slightly inaccurate as I haven't been "playing" it for that long. Usually once I start a game up I leave it running all day (alt tab out to do other stuff).

I am enjoying Fallout NV but I would say not as much as I enjoyed Fallout 3, the story just doesn't feel "epic" and I just can't find myself caring about the characters in the game as opposed to F3.

8 hours. Don't you people have lives?kdawg88

We do. In the Mojave.

31 hours, looks like only 40% of all areas explored so far.

Wow, I feel the exact opposite, Fallout3 I was bored ot death (felt like i was forcing myself to play), characters where not interesting, story was bad, rpg elements where not well done and the dialogue was laughable.

Only thing I liked more in Fallout3 was the radio stations where better.

What did you like in the story more for Fallout3? I am curious.

Wierd, i would give Fallout3's story a 5/10 and New Vegas story a 9/10.

Oh well, we all have our personal opinions :P

The writing of the story and dialogue seems way better in New Vegas to me, its actually interesting and well written, something we dont get very often in videogames. Some of the dialogue is movie or book quality imo.

80 hours + all the time ive been spending in the GECK which is all ive been doing these days :P

Firstly with FO 3 the story just felt more "epic", the fact it starts out in a Vault is also a plus for it in my book. In F NV the vaults actually feel completely unnecessary in the game, it feels as if they added the vaults because they had to make it feel like a Fallout game. The whole story with F NV just comes across as a petty little squabble and humanity would be best served if the entire area had been nuked beyond belief whereas FO 3 had an epic tail of human survival that starts off with someone simply wanting to find their dad and ending up with an event that would have life changing consequences for all humanity.

I can honestly say I don't care about any of the characters in Fallout NV the primary reason why I don't care is because I don't actually get an opportunity to develop any kind of relationship with them. The problem here is the way the quests are handled in F NV, you start one quest and in the process of doing that quest you get another quest and so you start doing that and get another quest etc etc till by the end you have like 15 quests going and you can't concentrate on the main one you started so you just end up doing them all with out particularly caring why you are doing them.

Now I am not saying Fallout NV is a bad game, it clearly isn't a bad game if I sunk 90 odd hours into it, but for me FO 3 is where it is at and once I have finished this playthrough of Fallout NV I will probably end up returning to Fallout 3 for my post apocolypse fix.

21 hours for me on one game and 15 hours on another game (character).
I am blown away by how much more i like this game then I did Fallout3,, butter in every way!

A-HA! Nice to know man!!! Thanks

What day is it today? oh my god... HOW LONG HAVE I BEEN PLAYING?!?!?

Hope Bethesda is taking notes on how to do a true Fallout game (:

Some goddamn powderganger is running at me with a tire iron, I shoot him five times in the head and he doesn't die, he staggers a little and then hits me with his f***ing tire iron lol..Romeo00z

Welcome to the world of RPG.

I've been playing for about 3 hours now, and I have to say that I really, really hate this game. I don't think I'm going to be playing it anymore, I just don't like this type of unrealistic gameplay, the story is pretty weak and the characters are just boring, sure they have better voice actors now but the characters are still uninteresting. Some goddamn powderganger is running at me with a tire iron, I shoot him five times in the head and he doesn't die, he staggers a little and then hits me with his f***ing tire iron lol.. Also you feel alone in this game, since none of the characters are likeable. I dunno, maybe the game gets better further in, but I think a game should suck you in from the beginning so fallout new vegas is a big no for me :)Romeo00z

Well, I sunk 73 hours into New Vegas. I just completed my first playthrough ten minutes ago. I am ramping up to get a second playthrough in probably tomorrow or so (might make the new character before I go to bed tonight though). I enjoyed the storywriting much more than in Fallout 3. After I completed Fallout 3's main story, my gut reaction was, "Uh... that's it?"

I also enjoyed how they included references to the events that occured in Fallout 2 (Marcus, The Remnants, NCR, etc). I do agree with one poster, though, on one thing. The Vaults did not seem all too important in New Vegas.

Passed 50 hours not long ago, and just reached Level 30. I haven't had many issues with the PC version at all, and been enjoying the game just as much as Fallout 3. Could do with a few more patches to solve some quest issues (Companions losing their weapons going into casinos and never getting them back), but aside from that, a really excellent game. :)
