Other than that, Fallout: New Vegas has a Hardcore mode, and while I havent played on it yet it will probably be really freaking hard.

Yeah, ive heard that hardcore mode takes into account your hydration level, and endurance when carrying heavy loads, limiting your travel time before you need to rest.

Hardcore mode is very different.
Your companions can die, you have a meter for hydration, food, and sleep - and you need to take care of those as you do with HP, or else you'll die. You can only fast travel as far as you could travel normally without water or food. Ammunition has weight, everything heals over time instead of immediately.
