    who did you side with on your first playthrough

    On my first play though still but going with Yes Man. NCR is currupt, incompitent and thinly spread. Mr House seems smarter but ultimately he seems to be all about profit and the "spirit" of Vegas (which is, as anyone who's been there knows, the sort of spirit that rapes). The Legion is just...

    The verdict on Caesar's Legion (minor early-game spoilers)?

    The only plus side I can see to the Legion is from some bits of pieces of companion dialogue. Legion owned terrortory seems to be much better regulated and controlled than NCR. If they'd pushed for this more, maybe made the NCR seem more incompitent than they already are then they would have...

    Companions: Thoughts about them?

    Generally I like the companions a lot more here than in Fallout 3 considering the companion wheel, perks and generally better voice acting and writing. Plus with ammo weight they become much appritiated pack mules. However they still suffer the same problems. I still sit there incredulous...

    Will Obsidian make another FO?

    Doubt it. There isn't enough hatred for Fallout 3's story in the general gaming populous, nor enough love for New Vegas's. There have been a good number of reviewers who even prefer Fallout 3's story. At best I could see Obsidian as the go too spin off developer, but I doubt Beth is going to...

    Gender matter?

    As far as a can tell the only gameplay difference is that women can get the Black Widow and Cherchez La Femme perks while Men can get the Lady Killer and Confirmed Bachelor perks. These unlock unique gay and straight dialogue. I'm pretty sure that's it.

    Wild Wasteland: is it Wild or merely a Waste?

    I discovered corpses of Owen and someone or other outside a burning building. I didn't realise they where Luke's aunt and uncle until I read it on these forums, and I've watched the original Star Wars triliogy multiple times. Wild Wasteland is a Waste for me. Many of the references just go...

    Hardcore Mode earns Special Reward

    It's quite possible. A lot of games give you better stuff on later play thoughs, or allow you to play the game again with all your stats from an old playthough and so on, though I doubt this would work with New Vegas if you can hit level 30 in one playthough anyway. I still think it''d be...

    Hardcore Mode earns Special Reward

    Thats kind of a given. It'd be weird to mention it if it wasn't an in game reward.

    Hardcore Mode earns Special Reward

    http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/104454-Fallout-New-Vegas-Hardcore-Mode-Earns-Players-Special-Reward This could be old news but The Escapist picked up on this little snatch of info from one of the leaked New Vegas screenshots. Apparently completeing the main quest in hardcore mode...

    Tim Schafer and Ron Gilbert, together again

    Yeah, Brutal Legend definitly got an unfair rap for me. I mean it certainly wasn't Psychonauts (i.e. one of the best platformers and funniest game ever) but it certainly wasn't the travisty a lot of people made it out to be. The story was interesting and funny with a great setting, characters...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    I thought it was awful. Most disappointing game ever for me. I still have the creature creator on my desk top however, if they just applied they creation system to a half way decent game I'd be all over it. It really is a very well made system, even way over a year down the line I still find...

    BioShock Infinite

    I doubt it. I'm getting the destict impression this isn't even set in the same universe as Rapture. First of all, plasmids wouldn't have been a dig deal if anything even remotely resembling it ever existed before, which we see in this game. Also, while Rapture stretched the boundries of what...

    Josh Sawyer forum posts

    You can't. But I think there will be very few of them, and certainly no Little Lamp Light situations.

    Robot and Human sex?.....

    This brings a whole new meaning to the phrase "Come with me if you want to live" Also apparently he's called Fisto... :shock:

    Any New Perks?

    No idea. Probably. We do know they're bring traits back though.

    Fallout New Vegas soundtrack leaked on Youtube

    Apparently the entire radio station sound track for New Vegas has been leaked on youtube. It includes tracks from Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Louis Prima, Fontaine Sisters and this little Nat King Cole gem: <object><param></param><param></param><param></param><embed...

    Russian PC Igry Previews New Vegas

    It feels to me like the gas mask is just a way to give the NCR it's own distinguishable style. Caesar's legion obviously has that whole roman thing going on, Obsidian just wants to give the NCR their own look too. I personally quite like it, in a generic post apocalyptic sort of way, the kind...

    Portal 2

    :shock: ...Ok, either I'm very bad at FPSs (which is weird because the vast majority of the games I play now a days are first person) or where talking about some very different games. HL2 is easily the longest FPS I've ever played. Hell, it takes about 2-3 hours to get hold of the gravity gun.

    Portal 2

    Wuh?! How long did it take you to finish Half Life 2? It was roughly 30 hours for me. You could probably play though it in 15 hours after you've been though it a couple of times but on a first play I doubt many people would manage under 20.
