http://reliques.online.fr/ Through CNN (Time), I found a couple of good galleries here on wasteland-style decay in Detroit and Eastern Germany. There's just something fascinating about this kind of imagery to me. Might be some interesting references if you're doing game design.

Looks like some interesting visual design in this Tim Burton post-apoc film called "9". It will be based on a 2005 short film by Shane Acker. http://9themovie.com/splash/

Not that there's any propane in the wasteland, but this was interesting in how it was assembled from various parts. http://www.wired.com/culture/culturereviews/magazine/17-01/st_flameguy Something disturbing about the video though. hmm... Oh, "BONE-fire". I get it now.

Sailcars, windracers, dirtboats, etc. Have we discussed this before? I read about these guys racing across the Gobi desert in Mongolia and thought hmmmm... RaidMongolia desert race Though rather obscure, it does have some history. Of course, you'd have to jury-rig such a thing in the...

Brotherhood of Steel – Eastern Division Log of the Second Exodus War may not change, but organizations do. They grow and shrink, fracture and reform. None more so than those created by "true believers" in whatever cause they pursue. It is those fervent beliefs that give such human...

An AP report says Mr. Gygax died this morning at his home. He was 69. You should know who he was, but if not, the creator of D&D and really p&p RPG's in general. We all know what that led to. http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/03/04/obit.gygax.ap/index.html No mention of our game, but we'll...

Anyone catch this on the history channel? Looked like some really nice PA scenes from the clips I saw. http://www.history.com/minisites/life_after_people/ So no wool socks lying around (but styrofoam is forever!)

So Beth is putting in a battlebabe, the BOS leader's daughter Sarah. No word on if she's a manbeater or more a Tandi girl-next-vaultdoor type. So what's the thought? I'm always suspicious that geeks are a little fetishistic but we'll see. What'ya say: A - I will be her man-slave...

I'm one of a few who thinks paper&pencil rules are nothing without minis and terrain, so when I see good post-apoc terrain, I get all happy-like. These guys however have created a true work of art (and thus my posting here)...

Are you bored waiting for the FO3 teaser? Here's a way to waste a few minutes while you wait. Octotron's game page I've had these nearly done for awhile, finally finished them and got them up. They're two Fallout-themed games I wrote as Java applets (because I felt like writing some...

Research Report - Deathclaws In FO2, when you visit Vault 13, you can speak with Joseph who is working as a healer for the talking deathclaw community. He is an herbalist, not a doctor or a biologist. When asked about Deathclaws, he mentions his theory that DC's come from a species called...

Research Report - Vertibird Contrary to what some may believe, the Vertibird's design is not entirely unique. Actual helicopters were contructed and flown with this lateral twin-rotor configuration. When was this? You guessed it. Helicopters and autogyros were the subject of much...

I was reading about some old Roman coins that had been found and began wondering why coins wouldn't be used in the Wasteland. I mean the devs just likely decided to use bottlecaps for PA "flavor", but how would you support that practically? Paper money wouldn't last long, but coins do and should...

Most here should know about the Greenbrier [edit] "vault". It was closed for awhile, but has just reopened for tours. Cough up $30 bucks to get your cold war experience. The article has a few new pics. http://www.cnn.com/2006/TRAVEL/DESTINATIONS/07/13/greenbrier.bunker.ap/index.html...

http://www6.falloutboyrock.com/falloutboy/bio.php OK, who did it? Anybody know if these guys are any good? (I guess it's too late to tell them it should be 2 words not 3.)

I like the "no soliciting" sign at Obsidian: http://media.pc.ign.com/articles/684/684902/img_3363415.html article: http://pc.ign.com/articles/684/684902p1.html

Since that other nuclear-related website was posted in the news, I thought I'd put in a plug for one of my favorites: http://www.civildefensemuseum.com/ Some highlights: hmm... this looks familiar http://www.civildefensemuseum.com/artgal/protect.html I know someone who could've...

MSN has a video report of tourists at Chernobyl, including the abandoned town nearby. (No Stalkers or anomalies sighted.) http://video.msn.com/v/us/v.htm?g=a12c326d-f08f-47c8-8547-eeef6d551709&f=copy
