Fallout: New Vegas console patch fixes 'over 200' bugs

Bethesda has released Fallout: New Vegas patchthat's so huge, the publisher didn't bother to provide a list of includedfixes and changes. That's because a "full changelist" would have been a novel - according to Senior Producer Jason Bergman, the patch fixesmore than 200 errors.

In a recent interview, New Vegas senior designer Chris Avellone said, "I think when you create a game as large as Fallout 3 or New Vegas you are going to run into issues that even a testing team of 300 won't spot, so we're just trying to address those as quickly as possible and so is Bethesda."

Indeed, Bethesda had to release a pretty large bug fix soon after Fallout 3 came out at the end of 2008. That patch only cleaned up a couple dozen reported errors, though. When it comes to bugs, "over 200" is quite a lot.

Just for fun, here's a look at a bug that showed up during the game intro, or as the YouTube user who posted the video writes, "THE FIRST THING THAT HAPPENS IS BROKEN."
