Obsidian Software made New Vegas in only 18 months, a very rushed development cycle for a game, especially due to constraints from Bethesda and high expectations from fans who were looking for a game like Fallout 3. which was hugely successful. Somehow, in that short amount of time, they created one of the best western RPG's ever, and my favorite game of all time. The sheer amount of things to do in this game is astounding, with roleplay mechanics to back up its many quests. The main and side factions are intriguing, the companions are fun and interesting, and the main story is amazing, with a plot that keeps you interested throughout its runtime. Complemented with good DLC (specifically Lonesome Road and Old World Blues), this game is a must-buy for any RPG fan.
