    Who's your perfect buddy?

    It is a random chance whenever you take something. Maybe you were just lucky. I've had Cassidy die on me 3 times though just on regular Stimpacks. Super Stims seem to be a lot more common to cause his death, although Stims you can probably pump him a few and he'll be alright.

    Who's your perfect buddy?

    Dogmeat was my favorite in Fallout. Such an awesome dog. I love the dogs I have in real life, but I want a dog like Dogmeat. In Fallout 2, Cassidy is my favorite? How do you get Marcus though? Vic's just about used all his usefulness, plus it's be nice to have him arond. I'm using Goris, Vic...

    Most inventive way to get back at Ian

    not sure if anybody's tried this one once, but ever take a powered sledgehammer with a high strength character? Sure, the end result is just the same as with every other human character you use it on, but there's just something that makes you feel good inside when you bash somebody 30 feet from...

    Sin City 2

    yea, I'd love to see it. I saw the movie last night at a friend's house. I'm not one to advocate piracy, but I would have had to wait until it came out on DVD normally to see if not for piracy!

    so if you can't save Arroyo, is there any use for the GECK item in your inventory?

    Getting Ammunition in Fallout 1

    You'll have to rely on Random Encounters (traders selling it, Super Mutants to kill, etc.) once you milk the MFCs from other sources. Try to only use your weapon when you really need to, or use it in a non-burst fire mode. You should only use burst when shit's lookin' bad anyway.

    Is it supposed to be this good?

    I have yet to try Fallout 1 since I got XP (considering my friend that borrowed the game who hasn't returned it yet before I even got 98, LOL!) but Fallout 2 ran flawlessly on 95, 98, and XP for me. Of course, all the hub bub is about Fallout 1, since it is technically a DOS game, and we know...

    FO2 Install Help, I Read Stickies

    1) Make sure your brother has installed the latest driver for his video card. Considering how old his card may be though, it could have possibly been a while since it's been updated, and the latest update may have still had complications with the game. 2)Has he had problems running any...

    First major 64 bit game - far-cry.

    yea, that's true, but imagine how long our recent favorite games would take to make if they were trying to optimize the code and still make it run on a large number of configurations? Considering how complex coding is in today's games, it would probably take just as long to just optimize the...

    Main enemy for F03....

    have any of you played the RIFTS roleplaying game? Well, in that world, the Earth went into Nuclear war. However, instead of mutating and whatnot, this caused the chi lines of the earth to be horribly corrupted and caused all kinds of different creatures to come from different alternate...

    Supreme Court says "No" to Medical Marijuana

    we should march on Washington to legalize Marijuana. Here's our Slogan "Marijuana: Hey, at least it's not Jet!"

    Girls and Fallout

    Technically, you could discuss Gran Turismo and The Sims, but yea, the other games... you could have discussed them like 20 years ago when they were NEW and didnt have 30,000 clones, maybe... I really do think the problem is that the market is geared to males. The types of games that are...

    Over There

    FX I think is a better channel than FOX, but FOX does have Family Guy so yea... Over There looks like it will be a pretty good series. And that Oil Storm show was pretty good. Everybody accuses Fox of being extremely right winged, but they got it all wrong. That's just Fox NEWS that is like...

    Girls and Fallout

    From my personal experience, it's nto that not very many girls play video games, it's just that they like different games from us. Girls I know that game are into games like the Sims, Tetris, Mario, and Gran Turismo. That's not exactly Fallout type games, and I only know one who likes any sort...
