    Pop culture reference [SPOILER]

    Actually, they lowered the mount level to 30 to better facilitate faster leveling in the face of higher level caps.

    Batty, Batty Roy

    Yeah, I love Bladerunner and "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" so I made a tiny little referrence. I'm not clear on wether or not I convinced anyone to leave... the speach check said something like "this is happening, either like it or pack your bags". Then on one visit back, Roy had killed...

    Freezing issue

    Funny, I just blew up my xbox in protest when the game starting freezing in the same area. Ok, I didn't blow it up.

    Thoughts on FO3 (Spoilers)(32hours played so far)(LONG POST)

    That goth girl character was obviously written by someone who had experience with such relationships, and I say this from experience myself. I knew a girl who was EXACTLY like that... at first over infatuated and obsessive and then self-righteously "betrayed" when the people and things around...

    Major Storyline Defect??

    This is a spoiler. If you get the emergency broadcast from Vault 101 later in the game and decide to go back and see what happened, you learn a lot more about the history of the vault. Apparently the Overseer's generation had opened the vault in their time and was horrified at the...

    Gripes about the writing

    Bwaaaaaaaahahahahaha!

    Don't give me this Combat Shotgun crap...

    The only special armor I've found is the Prototype Medic Power Armor... which has no +Str or -Agi but has a higher DR, talks to you and feeds you Med-X. I think the Advanced Power Armor also has a higher DR than standard power armor, and the stats are kind of a trade off. -2 Agility almost isn't...

    Batty, Batty Roy

    This may be a spoiler for you. In my new game I chose to go the tenpenny tower route, but I want to try to maintain nuetral karma, so I helped negotiate the ghouls' entrance into the tower. I thought it was rather cool how everyone was getting along and felt that I was justified in my...

    V.A.T.S. is NOT a combat system

    Which is why choosing to max out Agility and take Action Boy is even MORE important in this game than it was in the others.

    Dark Humor and Bethesdas Take on It

    In the CO quarters at the military base with the bomb storage (I've already forgotten the name) there is a skeleton in the bathtub that looks like it was reaching for a gun hidden in the back of the toilet. One of the computers in the Vault Tec HQ has a notification of bathroom breaks being...

    V.A.T.S. is NOT a combat system

    Hey, those are fighting words, partner! Halo is a dedicated FPS, and it obviously takes a lot more time to master than almost any other FPS, let alone an RPG in first person.

    Lamplight Hate Society

    Yeah, sorry, the Wrights. And yes, what you mentioned is even MORE fucked up. But awesome.

    [SPOILERS] Super Mutants in Fallout 3

    Hey, if you don't like what they did to Harold, you can at least put him out of his misery like he asks you to. Which in itself seems like an ironic and depressing allegory for the franchise, or at least some people will like to see it that way. Me, I just killed him for the barkskin perk...

    The brother hood of Steel in FO3

    What's REALLY funny is that they go over this debate in the game... one thing that I've noticed is that Bethesda seems pretty ready to reconcile the liberties they take with the old story lines. In FO3 they make it pretty clear that the original BoS back west isn't all that happy with the way...

    Lamplight Hate Society

    Man, call me sick, but I kind of enjoyed killing off the ENTIRE Bishop family on playthroughs where I wasn't going for made man with them... leave no orphans, you know?

    What if X made Fallout Y?

    Heh, that's what I was about to suggest. Seriously though, at least EA doesn't have the franchise rights... yet...

    Bottlecaps?

    Right. Pretty much everything is useful in some way, depending on how you want to play the game. The prewar books are an especially good example... I've made over 2000 caps off of them so far.

    So I just finished it

    I personally don't like the trading of information... I found everything that I have so far on my own which makes it that much cooler. So I won't tell you where it is, but I will tell you that it's worth finding. It says some pretty priceless stuff.

    Bottlecaps?

    The prewar currency is pretty valuable in the game. For me, I was always carrying so many backup weapons and armor that I was just at maximum weight limits, but I never missed a chance to pick up the prewar money because it has no weight value and can be traded for a decent amount of caps. One...

    It's not a baaad game, but i really hate it.

    I agree with pretty much everything you're saying, this just caught me as especially true. I picked up Charon from Underworld, and had him with me through most of the game. He's using the combat shotgun, but he has incredible accuracy and killing power from the same range that I do using a laser...
