    I have looked at a dozen mods for New Vegas and the ones that stand out are the Classic Fallout Weapons, the Project Nevada, and some of the Companion Mods like Niner, etc.

    I want a new PC anyway since I find that almost all games that can be played on PS3 can be played better and with more user created content on PC, though I'd still keep my PS3 for some of the exclusive games and what not.

    Anyone familiar with Modding games, Fallout NV or 3 in particular, or can give me suggestions on good gaming Pc's/ Laptops?

    Im pretty green when it comes to PC gaming and all that jazz.

    Yeah, I have fallout 3 on PC. The mods were great, made the game a lot more interesting, with more to do.

    For gaming always go PC not laptop, it'll be twice the power for the same price, and won't BBQ it's insides while you play. If you're looking at anything specific I can let you know what I think.

    Desktop is totally the way to go as Lordrevan said, youlll get better millage out of it considering you can upgrade as you see fit.

    Also, if you are looking into mods id suggest "a Tale of two wastelands", it allows you to play both fo3 and fo:nv side by side which is pretty damn neat. this assume you own games (use the term "own" to your own discretion)

    "Conelrad 640-1240" is also a great mod to add a new lore friendly radio station with older music and old defense public service announcements!: remember...always duck, and cover.

    while your at it, you might as well install an overhaul mod like "Project Nevada". as much as i love bethesda rpg games, they cant program themselves out of a cardboard box sometimes.

    newvegas.nexusmods.com <----have at 'er. And download the F.O.M.M. (Fallout Mod Manager) it should make running your mods all the more easier.

    I haven't bought any of the sandbox games(oblivion, skyrim, fallout 3 etc) on pc ever and i can honestly tell you it's a pain in the ***. I often envy the beauty of some of the mods, while others are just... plain stupid. If mods are of importance to you and you think it can improve your experience a whole lot, then yes, because the original game + mods is better than the original game - mods. If however, you won't be playing the game all too much, then you might as well just get it on console. If you're up for pirating, then get it for free for the pc as well.

    But simply based on the fact that you're asking this question, i'm assuming you're into mods, therefor you should probably get it for pc, just so that you won't miss out on all those lovely mods.

    No.

    Buy Skyrim. It has a larger and more active modding community than almost any game right now.

    Project Nevada just looks so AMAZING THAT I WANT IT! Bethesda must take a leaf from those guys if they make a Fallout 4.
