Hi chums, me again the cratchey ol' joe...

I don't know if any of you longtooths remember my blog from some time ago in which I highlight how broken Fallout 3 is as a game (by broken I mean, dumbed down and too easy)

I complete the entire of Fallout 3 using only my fists as weapons... well, I've decided to do the same challenge for New Vegas!

Of the two games I've always considered Vegas to be far better balanced and more challenging, this is my time to either prove that theory right, or as I did with FO:3 prove that any chump (namely me) can beat the game without having to fire a single shot, nor raise even the smallest of knives.

Nope, fists only is the order of the day, and I'm inviting you chaps n' chappets to be the casual observers of my many silly mistakes, and by that I mean Cazadore Vs fists ... can only end one way :ugly:

Well the new blog is sited here: http://fonv-challenge.blogspot.co.uk/

For anyone that missed the 1st blog (and how could you?!) it's still online here: http://failout-weaponless.blogspot.co.uk/

I hope you guys enjoy the show, feel free to leave derogatory comments on how I write, or how I play... I'll be back once in a blue moon to see what's going on here, if not catch me on Google+ (please message me for my Google name if you'd like to add me to circles)

ta ta :V

Just thought I'd drop by and let you guys know I've been quite busy updating the Fallout New Vegas blog - hope some of you are enjoying it! :grin:
 
It could just be me, but the link to the blog seems not to be working correctly from your sig. Was the NMA bit in the URL accidental?

Update time... I'd forgotten to post up a video.. me Vs Deathclaws

This would never happen in FO2... certainly not in a way I could 'win' ...

You're sure? Few perks, PA armour and psycho (only if you have problems).

Even more, such battle would look better in FO2 than in FNV imho, cause getting enemy to unconscious is harder.

I did brawler AAR for Fallout1, but right now because of you, I want to play "no weapons, killing everything" challenge for FO2.

Wow. I just checked out the blog and I have to say, well done, sir! I hope you named your character "Chuck Norris". Brilliant commentary too, I especially enjoyed the quotations from Napoleon and Charles Manson.

This is an inspiring thread!
I chuckled to the videos

I've always been intimidated at unarmed strategies, as well as using drugs as a method, but it's fun to see the potential of it in action
