    Why Do You Enjoy Fallout 3

    I enjoyed playing Fallout 3 on account of its open endedness, too, but I certainly agree that certain aspects of the storyline and gameplay could have done with a little more polishing up. When put beside New Vegas and its expansions, though, it seemed to be something of a lemon in comparison...

    Comic books

    In my opinion, Fred Basset comic strips could very well be used as a highly effective form of torture.

    @Harken, that soundtrack had a great patriotic flavour to it that I really enjoyed. I liked the shifts between the strong metallic percussion and the victorious orchestral music, too. When I was listening in at the three minute mark, I could easily imagine Joan of Arc riding into war with her...

    There's no point to miss. I just like the sea.

    Ha. Oblivion's probably a fairly crowded place, then.

    Sounds like an average playthrough of Civilization V!

    Interesting (alternative) life philosophies?

    When it comes to religion, it's always a sorry mix of tragedy and irony when people torture and murder in the name of the God of kindness and mercy, shun and hate in the name of the God of love and acceptance, and lie and cheat in the name of the God of justice and virtue. Truth be told, on the...

    Roxbury! Roxbury! Roxbury! 7/10. While I personally felt that the song was a little repetitive and generic at times, it still makes for a good song to listen to while you're out jogging or driving. The beat's nice, too.

    Any creative roleplayers out there?

    I actually made this character specifically for playing through the Honest Hearts expansion, which is my favourite part of Fallout: New Vegas. I found inspiration for developing his personality and background after watching Up (2009), because I immediately took a liking to Carl's character...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    I simply gave up on trying to finish Kingpin on account of how hard it was, even from the beginning! Even as we speak, I'm playing Stronghold: Crusader with the high definition patch added to it. I'm well aware of the new sequel, but I'm sorry to say that it doesn't really appeal to me as much...

    Planescape Torment - ideal starting stats and mods

    I feel your pain. Having to fight those rats in the crypts, over and over again, was a bloody nightmare.

    Post-Legion Ending Courier Names

    If the Courier is a woman, there are three honourary titles good old Caesar might possibly give to her as a token of her initiation into the Legion as its first known female soldier and agent. 1. Septimia Zenobia Following her husband's death, Septimia Zenobia was the self appointed "queen" of...

    Comic books

    Oh, I was given the first volume of Persepolis last year at my university! It's a great comic book. Marjane Satrapi did the album art for Iggy Pop's album, Préliminaires (which is a personal favourite of mine), and he did voice acting for the 2007 film adaption of Persepolis. Not a bad trade.

    Comic books

    It's not the cheeriest of comic books, but I've always enjoyed reading Maus by Art Spiegelman. It tells the story of the author's father and his experiences as a Jew in Nazi Germany, and its use of anthropomorphic animals to discern different nationalities adds a great splash of symbolism to the...

    Brotherhood's response to the Super Mutant threat

    I assume that Lyons and the Brotherhood are more than aware of the super mutants' sterility on account of Vree's research; as @Yamu's just pointed out, if they focused more on cutting off their enemy's access to the Forced Evolutionary Virus, their crusade would go along far more smoothly via...
