At a New Vegas demo last month, senior producer Jason Bergman told me that the ending to New Vegas "explains things well beyond the end of [the] game," including "what happens to every one of our factions and major characters."

That means that once the endgame begins, you can't go back into the game world. Don't worry -- just before the ending, the game warns you that you've reached the point of no return, and automatically saves right there. After the end credits, the game gives you two options: you can load that save game, or go to the main menu. When I asked Bergman why Obsidian chose to do it that way, here's what he said:

"We tell the full story of every one of your companions through the end of their lives, and it's weird to do all that and then jump back and say, 'Okay! Now you can keep going again.' So we end the game, and if you want to do other quests, then you go back to that save game before the end sequence."
