If you're old fashioned like me and don't like dealing with all the on-line craziness, then you can get a hard disk copy at Half Price Books.

Before we get to the crux of the matter, let me start by saying that I started off playing Fallout when the demo of the Scarpyard(what would later become Junktown first came out), and from that point I was hooked on something that seemed so outside anything that either the film industry or any...

I think the problem stems from the fact that Bethesda's Fallout 3 (versus say traditional Fallout 3 (Van Buren) tried to make a game about the perpetual 50's (which ironically none of the music in the game is even from the 1950's...most of the titles are late 40's if I remember correctly), and...

I don't really understand how the pointless DJ prattle in Fallout 3 at all even had any effect on the game world as though yes it was reported that some random stranger from a Vault did so and such, it really has absolutely no impact on the entire game as a whole. So you blow up Megaton...well...

With regards to the NCR I think that we'll find more and more that your interaction with them will reflect the rise of modern nation state(in some ways a parallel to Manifest Destiny, but driving east instead). Now though some of the writing of the NCR with reference to New Vegas it had already...

My guess is that he must be somewhere in his thirties, simply because he seems to have done quite a bit of travel around the core regions and furthermore considering the fact that most people show him a due level of respect(probably simply due to the fact that he's lived long enough).

I've been thinking about this for a while, and I've come to the conclusion that the use of term Enclave in reference as an organization is wholly incorrect! If we examine Fallout 2, we'll notice that the the only times in which the "Enclave" is referred to is with reference to the Poseidon Oil...

Though it'll be considered "old" by most standards, no doubt the most addictive game would have had to have been "Imperialism: The Fine Art of Conquering the World."

Other than passing mentions, the past of the Fallout Universe was supposed to be mostly forgotten and used only as a plot device when needed.

Well due to the fact that Wasteland attempts to have a story, while Bethesda's Fallout 3 simply said: "Here look at the pretty picture I made"(but it's actually just Doom 2 with better visuals).

I think Nazism is overused to the point of making it comical rather than actually turning them into any sort of quality adversary. Now perhaps a state in the Wasteland similar to Apartheid Era South Africa would be interesting to explore(with Ghouls and Mutants living on something equivalent...

Considering the NCR can begin laying rail into Nevada it would stand to reason that they have the resources to clear the wreckage of LA.

So if I remember correctly, the transition to nuclear from petroleum only began following the war between the Middle Eastern Union and the State of Israel(in which both used limited atomic weapons). Also yet again, if I'm recalling correctly the United States Army had to field a lot more power...

As Fallout 3 tends to diverge so far away from the actual Fallout timeline, I don't think that the letter should be taken as canon. However that being said, there probably were civil defense bunkers which existed in Canada in the form of the Diefenbunkers, along with any other civil defense...

I think the interesting irony is, is that the Brotherhood of Steel has evolved more into the "Steel Plague" (one of the possible endings mentioned in Fallout 1), which is far more militaristic and aggressive, than the traditional BOS. However it should be noted that the BOS was never a friendly...

So after a few playthroughs of New Vegas I've found that the story seems to be more a parallel of the Second Iraq War (03-08), than being a spiritual successor to Van Buren(FO3). Camp McCarran: The first piece that really struck me that much of a inspiration came from current events was the...

When it comes to the Legion, it was a concept which would have been excellent had it not been pigeonholed into being the traditional "bad guy". If we look at the world of Fallout as a whole, unlike what Fallout 3(Bethesda's Version) would have you think, there isn't supposed to be a clear "Hero"...
