Mr. New Vegas



Mr. New Vegas is an AI programmed by Mr. House before the Great War to be the DJ of Radio New Vegas, a job he still performs over two hundred years later in 2281. He is heard in-game on the radio, but never actually seen.

Interactions with the player character
Mr. New Vegas plays music and reads news, most commonly detailing the Courier's deeds in the Mojave Wasteland.

He makes comments and gives advice on the Courier's active quests, such as revealing what the Courier must do or is going to do. Much like Fallout 3's Three Dog, Mr. New Vegas also reveals some future details of the ending of Fallout: New Vegas, including the possible takeover of the NCR, Caesar's Legion and Mr. House. In addition, Mr. New Vegas comments on the outcomes of major quests the Courier has completed.

Appearances
Mr. New Vegas is only heard in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenes

 * Mr. New Vegas is voiced by real-life Vegas-based star Wayne Newton, also known as "Mr. Las Vegas".
 * Mr. New Vegas' line, "Mojave, mo' problems. Am I right folks?" is a reference to the rapper Notorious B.I.G.'s song "Mo' Money, Mo' problems." This line is only heard if the player takes the Wild Wasteland trait.
 * Mr. New Vegas will also occasionally say "Stay classy, New Vegas" if you have Wild Wasteland. This is a reference to the film Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.
 * Occasionally, Mr. New Vegas may say, "You're nobody 'til somebody loves you, and that somebody is me. I love you." This is a reference to "You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You" by Dean Martin.
 * Mr. New Vegas will occasionally say "Tensions are brewing in Freeside between the ruling gang known as the Kings and the large number of NCR squatters seeking refuge there. The leader of the Kings, who would only identify himself as The King, voiced his displeasure, calling NCR citizens, quote, the devil in disguise. He added he didn't want to see any NCR in the ghetto, and called for a mass, quote, return to sender." This is a reference to the Elvis Presley songs "Devil in Disguise", "In the Ghetto", and "Return to Sender".

Bugs

 * Sometimes Mr. New Vegas' voice will be cut short and music will play.
 * Similarly, sometimes his voice will be silent for no longer than two seconds when a song ends, resulting in the very beginning of his line to be cut out.
 * Mr. New Vegas' voice will be the only audible thing on RNV. Neither reloading the game nor stopping and starting the station will fix it.
 * Whenever going through a loading screen while Mr. New Vegas is talking, he will finish whatever portion of dialogue he is saying, then his audio will cut out for the next dialogue portion, until the loading screen is finished, then continuing as normal.
