    Fallout: New Vegas Honest Hearts Reviews

    IGN's just came out. It's, ya know, IGN, but it's still a review: http://xboxlive.ign.com/articles/116/1169077p1.html

    Honest Hearts out on Xbox360, will be on Steam later

    Your characters are clearly playing around with negative cultural stereotypes. I'm surprised he wasn't talking about "fire water" and how much "wampum" I was carrying. It's so ridiculously obvious. Clearly, he's not a native american, culturally or ethnically, just stereotypically. He's the...

    Honest Hearts out on Xbox360, will be on Steam later

    No, Caesar taught them that stuff. Graham was a pawn at the beginning. Anyway, I admit that your points are valid and I think we're arguing over semantics. As for why this character pisses me off so much: I had to listen to twenty minutes of dialogue that had NOTHING to do with ANYTHING...

    Honest Hearts out on Xbox360, will be on Steam later

    Yes, valid point. Thank you for bringing up a reasonable disagreement. What I was trying to say, is that he's not a "missionary". He wasn't when he was actually doing it, he wasn't when Caesar recruited him for the Legion (or started it with him, whatever) and he certainly isn't in this dlc. The...

    Honest Hearts out on Xbox360, will be on Steam later

    I'm in hardcore mode, which makes me think it's a bug. My "butt-hurt" is coming from the following: 1. Native Americans - you have got to be out of your mind if you think the 'tear drop when garbage is thrown on the side of the road' representation of native americans is...

    Honest Hearts out on Xbox360, will be on Steam later

    You mean the fact that native americans own a giant portion of the US's casinos? That a large portion of the reservation land they were bequeathed by the United States has since been used to build casinos which then fund their communities' existence's? Yup, guess it was totally lost on me. Oh...

    Honest Hearts out on Xbox360, will be on Steam later

    I guess my game's bugged or something, because 1. Killing the native american stereotype just makes him unconscious and doesn't end any missions. 2. Joshua Graham will not die with 14 crit shots to the head with the Gobi. 3. They aren't just "silly because they're talking about religion" but...

    Honest Hearts out on Xbox360, will be on Steam later

    Spoiler: Right when you're walking in to Joshua Graham's camp there's a character you see called "Two-Bears-High-Fiving". We get it, Obsidian, you read the message boards. Thanks for this waste of time. He's also unkillable, in case anyone was wondering. And I don't want to come off as...

    Honest Hearts out on Xbox360, will be on Steam later

    Here's a quick review: 1. Lots of bugs/glitches. This might be fixed later, but holy damn is it annoying watching Joshua Graham twitch and convulse when I'm talking to him. 2. Your companion at the beginning of the dlc is the most stereotypical native american character I've ever seen in a...

    No gear-stripping in future New Vegas DLC

    Oh okay, sorry man, I didn't realize there was confusion. No, the urine recycling thing isn't a joke. As for Zion National Park, it's a recreational park. You don't NEED to go mountain climbing, there are plenty of ways to get around on flat ground. As for the power armor being able to climb...

    No gear-stripping in future New Vegas DLC

    I disagree. I also think you're referring to multiple instances of continuity. "walking for days and days through unexplored land inside a tin can" is what the Fallout endgame is all about. From the beginning, the Fallout series has placed a player in an "unexplored land" (from the player's...

    No gear-stripping in future New Vegas DLC

    That's fine from a difficulty standpoint, but it doesn't do much in the way of story. You're telling me I can run up a roller-coaster by myself carrying 250 pounds of crap but when I'm travelling with beasts of burden and carriages I have to carry LESS? Really? If this is just a discussion of...

    Fallout: New Vegas Honest Hearts Trailer and Screenshots

    I noticed that the number '22' is written in the tribal graffiti on the side of that cliff. I also notice that there's a giant-ass plant in one of the screen shots. I'm guessing that not everyone from Vault 22 became a spore carrier.

    Fallout and Fallout 3 win in the Smithsonian videogames poll

    It's almost as if they used a time machine to go back and change history and we're the only ones who remember the original timeline. So many people refer to F3 as "Fallout"... Sad face symbol.

    Gamespy on difficult games

    Off topic, but I can never seem to get a news representative to respond to me. Has anyone read this from the Smithsonian American Art Museum? http://americanart.si.edu/exhibitions/archive/2012/games/winninggames.pdf The original Fallout wins in its category. Unfortunately, so does Fallout...

    Mutants Rising Easter 2011 press release

    Thanks for the kind words about my voice acting guys! Additionally, if there are any other recommendations I'm definitely willing to hear them. I'm a voice actor by trade, so if you think the tones should be more coarse or guttural, I can make it happen. Thanks for supporting the team!

    New Vegas DLC info follow-up

    A little off-topic, but GameSpy has an article about why some gamers like difficult games and some prefer easy games (I think this ties in with the whole level 50 = too powerful discussion). F:NV is mentioned in the article as well, notably as being a game that was difficult upon release due to...

    Press event hints at possible DLC announcement this week

    You're totally right, however, I don't think "hype" has anything to do with the "ca-ching" factor of users dumping dollar signs into the coffer of future fun. My theory, and I may totally be wrong, is that Bethesda recognized how much money Bioware was making through this strategy, as well as...

    Press event hints at possible DLC announcement this week

    When I brought this up to BN last week and he assured me that there was no way the dlc would be coming this fast without us hearing about it - I suggested that perhaps Bethesda is taking the Mass Effect approach to DLC going forward. This would make perfect sense if I'm right, with them...

    G4 Best Franchise Fan Vote Competition

    @BN it was during the era in which NBC was considering buying IGN for their hard-hitting investigative journalism and accuracy of determining game quality. I don't know if anyone has had the misfortune to watch Attack of the Show, but the premise is as follows: Put a complete moron with...
