'New Vegas is a very, very important game to us,' says mildly exasperated Todd Howard, who will never stop getting grilled about New Vegas (www.pcgamer.com)

I think the "most truthful" thing encompasses the games too. It comes across as "whatever the players do is what is canon to them" and "along with the games" means things alongside the games, not the games themselves.

Kinda like the game manual saying x character was killed in the previous game or something but you as a player never let that happen. Your canon is the true canon, not what is written.

That sounds much more like a todd thing to say.

It's so weird that the vault dweller would punch Preston in the face 37 times, but it's canon.

Ok, that's fair. The article might be omitting context with that quote.
