It’s a tad disappointing that folk here are apparently not fans of the dialogue system, although considering this is a Fallout fansite, I guess that reaction was predictable enough. The big reason for this system is that a full reply, like one you’d pick in Fallout, Baldur’s Gate or Dragon Age...

I was able to grab it... which is good, because lord knows where my original copy is stashed away.

It does look a bit New Vegas, but that’s a bit unfair as NV had heavy Wasteland influence. Hell, it had ranger armour that was specifically designed to look like Desert Ranger armour. I think that the style is fine. I kinda understand those who were looking for a more ‘retro’ look to the art...

Man, I'd love one that fits my Galaxy S2.

Gifted by one of the community managers on the old Interplay forums. His tag was 'Aqua'. The autographs there are are all interplay folk. Not sure if they are also Blackisle folk, as they've signed their forum handles. Do whatever you'd like with the photos. :D

Over on the Fallout Forums a user messaged me requesting I sell my Gecko-in-a-Can. He also wanted photos of the gecko from within the can (apparently most of the other floating about are still sealed for fear of what might be inside). I would never sell mine, but I did agree to post some...

The name made me double take... it's darn close to me blog.

" I thought that maybe if you could spend some time in your old neighborhood you would realize how much things have changed - and how much you haven't. I had hoped that seeing what your friends had done with the place might inspire you to be better." Wait - So he’s saying the game with the...

Like the main game, companions only can die in hardcore mode.

Or it might mean that the rest of the DLC is done and just waiting on the right time to put it out. Or maybe Bethesda have desided to focus on marketing for Skyrim and believe that FONV dlc will distract from their hype. He's hoping for option A.

Dead Money is the 'Elder Elijah' DLC, so no other Couriers in this one. I like that they have obviously pre-planned these DLCs so we have hooks going in.

Wait, didn't Bethesda do the play testing for FO:NV?

I just wanted to quote these two posts because I think that this is actually an interesting discussion. I agree with Vic that most of the FO2 story could be retold in the newer engine (even without the mods that emulate a world-map). But it really depends on what you think the story is. The...

This is understandable, as Bethesda are currently in a long legal battle over who actually owns the toys. If there wasn't currently a massive battle on the toys right now, I imagine that they might not have been so picky. And to be fair, they are Bethesda's toys. And, frankly, the artist...

For any complaints I’ve heard about New Vegas, I still think it’s the best RPG to have come out in the last 4 or 5 years. It’s the only one to even try integrating classic RPG design into a ‘A’ level product. Hell, compare it to Dragon Age, the game Bioware said was going to be a throwback to...

I’m a consumer whore, and I just have to get their hard, hot collectors editions and pre-order DLC on to my display shelf. *Hangs head in shame* Or you mean why do I order them both: because before seeing them run it’s hard to tell if the extra content is worth the hit in...

I think that New Vegas is as close to a playable Fallout sequels as I’ll ever get to play. The quests and setting in the main game are done well enough that I’m hesitant to throw some random unrelated side quest in there. Best case, I don’t see what it adds to the experience. Worst case, it...

Exactly. I can hardly believe all the folk that are saying that NCR are the freaken good guys! They over tax, they take what they want and they are willing to hurt anyone that gets in their way. They TOOK the damn because they wanted it. I started out supporting NCR... but some of the things...

Are you kidding? I've hardly started the main plot and I've put 78 hours into it.

I haven’t played the game yet, but in a purely theoretical capacity there are a lot of good reasons that a group living in a post apocalyptic world may choose to keep classical Latin alive. Firstly, it functions as a code, preventing communications from being intercepted. Secondly...
