At one point, I had to start a new games, then go into the menu and load my save as clicking "continue" or "load game" from the main menu caused the game to hang on the loading screen. This didn't continue past that day however.
The only other glitch I've experienced involved falling through the floor in the NCR outpost barracks. That was irritating, it had auto-saved literally right before it happened, but still, that shit shouldn't happen!

I have it for the 360 and I don't believe I've ever had the game crash on, but it would freeze up every now and then if I wasn't careful. I think it was about the same for Fallout 3 and Skyrim has only frozen up on me a few times. About the worst I've really I've gotten in Skyrim recently is the occasional, momentary frame drop and the less occasional missing parts of buildings/landscape glitch.
I had very little trouble from FO:NV. It froze or crashed on me maybe a couple times, which is about par for the course when it comes to computer games. I had much more trouble from Skyrim, Oblivion and FO 3.
I must be lucky, NV hasn't crashed once on me yet. FO3 however, was the world's least stable game ever.
On PC, with lots of mods, and it's very, very rarely. Fallout 3 didn't crash on me as much, but Skyrim does.
Fallout 3 didn't really crash on me all that much, maybe 2-3 times max in all the time I played it. But I got New Vegas through Steam about a year after launch, and it just kept crashing, even after fully patching it. And it was never a crash-to-desktop, it was always a full-on hard reboot scenario. I just gave up on it despite the fun I was having with it. And I never even made it to Vegas, which was the whole point in me deciding to buy it.
It froze on me last night as I was approaching a building; presumably the "Spawn 50 raiders"-trigger messed it up, somehow. But beyond that, it's been very stable so far. Hopefully, it's not going to make a habit out of this, because there will be many, maaaany more suprise raider spawns...
Maybe I just got really lucky, but I only experienced crashing on the PC version of Fallout: New Vegas around 10 times in my 50 hours of playing it. On the PS3 version, probably once every hour or two.
I had it crash once. And that was entirely my fault. Like an idiot, I decided, 'hey, let's alt tab out of the game as soon as the loading screen started!' Yeah, I don't know why I did that either.
Never had it freeze (that was not caused by me), though. Not even on my PS3 edition which I got day 1.

The only really annoying issue was that robot eyeball companion, that went crazy on me for some reason. Other than that, it was mostly overheating issues with my dodgy gfx card - I managed to play through without too many issues, nothing I'd complain about really.
Quite a bit for me, actually. And for the record I was running the game on my xbox 360 with all the patches and DLC present. A more recent incident was while shopping in the general store of Primm, during which my game would always crash after buying certain items, after concluding the conversation, or while leaving the store. After a while, I concluded it was because I was buying a duplicate copy of a playing card for Caravan, so I skipped the cards and bought everything else I needed. The game then crashed as I exited the store, so I reloaded an old save.
