Bethesda has just announced that it has deployed a big patch for the PlayStation 3 version of Fallout: New Vegas, and that the Xbox 360 and PC versions of the game will also receive it later this week.

The new patch will take the game to version 1.02, and aims at solving lots of the problems encountered by players during their experience with the post apocalyptic role-playing game.
