The short 5 minute G4 video is definately worth watching to see the classic P94 in action as the "Plasma Caster". Looks very much like the classic p94 plasma rifle mod on Fallout Nexus except more professional and without the bug where the plasma bolts shooting below the crosshair. ;) I like...

Actually the bit on the back isn't new, it was always there. It's just that you may not be very used to seeing it as you can't see that bit in first person. I'm depressed that the Fallout 3 plasma rifle is in there. I had hoped that since they brought back the classic Glock 86 plasma pistol...

I wonder if the fact that all the quests have got pacifict options might mean that as well as the obvious route of clever dialogue with people, they'll also have implimented Deus Ex style routes for sneaking into places. So every town or every fortress will have ventillation shafts or sewers or...

And there is the fact that there were similar floating security bot things that were essentially hovering eyes in Fallout 1 and 2. I recall them in the Sierra Army Depot as well as other places. The fact that it is playing music appropraite to Las Vegas rather than the patriotic tunes of...

The plasma pistol is actually an extremely faithful recreation of the Extended Capacity version of the Glock 86. (Disapointingly the sound effect has no similarity, though.) The tubes on the side that Lexx labelled with question marks are on the original Ext Cap picture. This is the...

The idea of alternative ammo types for energy weapons is interesting, had never occured to me. Makes sense - the difference between buying Duracell Ultra or some crappy unknown brand of battery. It was buggy and horrible back when first released, but nowadays I find steam a joy to use. The...

Actually there was an item description for the machine gun fast-fire kit. It said "Increases rate of fire", beneath the picture. However, it looked like the weapons do not have item descriptions. Instead, beneath the picture there were more weapon stats than in normal Fallout 3. I'd been...

It occurs to me that the "Weathered 10mm Pistol" isn't just a bad bonus, given that it looks like in Fallout New Vegas the main pistol type is going to be 9mm. The magazine previews have all shown 9mm pistol and various unique upgrades for it, and oriignally in Van Buren they were going to...

I pre-ordered the Alan Wake Limited Edition, which meant I got it for same price as the normal edition of the game. It's pretty cool having your game come in a big box (like the days of 1990s PC games), containing an extra bonus disc and a soundtrack disc and a voucher thing with a code on it...

I'm cool with Small Guns and Big Guns now being Firearms. I'm sure they'll turn the Gatling Laser back into an energy weapon. In F3 they made it a Big Gun simply cause there were not enough big guns, and the gatling laser was undeniably... big. But now that the skills are Firearms and Energy...

Hah, never realised the Tactics music was by the same guy as the Fallout 3 music! Learn something new every day. Do you think that was intentional on Bethesda's part? Or coincidence?

According to The Vault wiki: "Fallout Tactics had a multiplayer option of creating a squad and or person based on a value of how many points you could put into your person or squad. The game can be played on Gamespy Arcade. It can also be played online via Steam with its multiplayer option...

Yeah the fact that it somehow is supposed to fit into Fallout 2 plot does seem a bit bizarre... I'd have expected instead the whole game to be set in Chernobyl, essentially a 2D isometric turn-based version of STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl. But, I'm certainly willing to give it a try. Nice...

Ah. It would be great if someone could do that in the future... I read that at the moment Cassidy does not have full animation set for pistol and wears combat helmet with armor when using a pistol, I figure same thing could be done with the flamer/laser rifle weapon animations too.

While reading this I've seen comments and things about Cassidy wearing combat armour and stuff like that, and missing animations etc... it occurs to me, can the player's followers now use big guns or laser rifles/plasma rifles/pulse rifles/flamers? Given that normal enemies wearing combat armour...

I haven't even tried, perhaps it is compatabile. Compatability with RP 2.0 is essential... but I also have a different request. Any chance you could make a Fallout 1 version? I know some features are not do-able, for instance, the changes to AP ammo. And perhaps it isn't possible to alter...

A weapon balance overhaul mod for Fallout 1... awesome! But... reading the readme... 10mm revolver instead of 10mm pistol, with just 6 bullets? Surely the 10mm pistol is the biggest "holy cow" of Fallout. The gun design does look odd, like combination of a revolver and an automatic pistol...

Actually I disagre there - while I'm unhappy with many things about Fallout 3, at least it has some entertainment value as a game in its own right, and its sucess has made more people notice the Fallout franchise, a new generation is playing the original Fallout games. On the other hand, BOS is...

Oh so that mistake in the description is actually part of the vanilla game? Wow, a bug in Fallout 2! Who'd have thought! :D The pulse rifle ST requirement of 6 is fine. They are very powerful, and with a high weapons skill strength penalties become negligble anyway. (I'm kicking arse with...

BUG REPORT: Got myself a YK42B pulse rifle... the item description claims it has a minimum strength requirement of 3! I have 5 strength, and when I try to use the gun in combat I see the little warning that I am not strong enough to use this weapon properly. So it would appear that it still uses...
