Fallout: New Vegas - Dead Money Review @ NMA

Dead Money for Fallout: New Vegas has been reviewed at No Mutants Allowed. It's a positive piece overall, and they seem to appreciate the emphasis on the survival tone:

While Dead Money in general plays the same as the main Fallout New Vegas game the focus on the player skills are somewhat different than the main game. Dead Money is still an action role playing game, but an important aspect of the game is survival which is implemented in the game through the various hazards and the strong enemies as well as the severe lack of resources such as stimpaks, weapons, and ammunition the player could take for granted in New Vegas. These are very rare and precious now and sometimes it is better to avoid a conflict or try to use a trap against an enemy rather than trying to approach the situation Action Boy style.
