Didn't they pretty much say that that's exactly what it does before it was revealed as what's in the package?

Also, IIRC one early preview mentioned that House survived the war by freezing himself cryogenically, which means that he can't be a robot or a computer, but I'm not 100% sure that it wasn't just gossip.
 
Theory time!

Number 1: Maybe the Platinum Chip is the world's last chocolate.

Number 2: Maybe the Platinum Chip is the last copy of "Citizen Kane".

Number 3: Maybe the Platinum Chip contains a map, showing the location for a pirate treasure.

Number 4: Maybe the Platinum Chip is a compass, showing the location for a pirate treasure.

Number 5: Maybe the Platinum Chip is alien technology, stolen from Area 51.

Number 6: Maybe the Platinum Chip holds DNA remains of Elvis Presley.

Number 7: Maybe the Platinum Chip is the ultimate puck and the remaining Canada wants it.

Number 8: Maybe the Platinum Chip holds Bethesda's actual writing talent.

Number 9: Maybe the Platinum Chip cost 1 000 000 000 in barter.

Number 10: Maybe the Platinum Chip is magic and it gives 10 to every SPECIAL and 100% to all skills, plus secret perks of mass destruction.

Number 11: Maybe the Platinum Chip holds seeds that have the power to turn Nevada in a jungle. And possibly the world.

Number 12: Maybe the Platinum Chip is a very rare, but very tasty egg.

Number 13: Maybe the Platinum Chip is a voice changing device, for prank calls.

Number 14: Maybe the Platinum Chip is a portable fleshlight.

Number 15: Maybe the Platinum Chip IS Mr. House.
 
I wonder whether there's going to be a hidden part to the New Vegas story or not.
In FO you go for the Water Chip and end up learning about the mutant threat.

In FO2 you go for the GECK and learn about the Enclave threat.

In FO3 you curl up and die because the game sucks so bad.

In FO:NV you already died, but not really (McGruber style !), then you look for a man in a checkered shirt, who happens to have the Platinum Chip (duh, he took it from you; and just thought he'd hold on to it 'til you come and get it from the Great Beyond) and then... what ? :)

It was mentioned by Josh in a PC Gamer preview, but then again, if there really was a computer twist, do you think they'd tell you straight away? I'm inclined to believe him, but it's not as if that counts as a confirmation to be honest.
 
the townships and agriculture are looking great. so much better than the random "Stuffs are broken bad wasteland pockalipse ok?" of Fallout 3.

Yes, they are? They just aren't adjusting the UI to allow for more lines to be displayed.

It's all that make-up. On his head. Yes sir.

SO does Mr. House come from.. House as in a casino, or is it just a cool name to call a man by, or is it actually after dr. House ? :? Agh. Drunk with sleeplessness. Should stop posting. Sorry.
