Woo hoo. Fallout: A Post Apocolyptic Role Playing Game, now post completion

And so there goes Fallout: A Post Apocolyptic Role Playing Game. Man, if I'd have known I was going to get done dirty after saving Vault 13, I'd probably not have rushed saving their arses, twice. Next time, I may just let them dehydrate, or get the super muties to smash them. Screw them guys, I cannot go home. It's easy to see why it is a legend in gaming, and it's aged well for its genre. Will probably play again, or load up that final save and do some more exploring. On a side note, I saw the talking cows twice. Proper threw me, then found out they were a rare encounter. Moo, I say. I did use a guide, but only for character setup and levelling recommendations, RPG setup guides are a god send, however, these were not available at launch so I still feel I cheated a bit. The guide I used was huge and covered everything in the game, so couldn't be bothered to read past setup anyway. I knew...

Fantasy General 2, Fallout and Prototype 2. I am starting to lose focus

So I've gone back to the old ways. My old ways. The way I treat music, games, TV shows, I cannot stay committed to 1 thing at a time. I am still playing Fantasy General as per the plan but I have e also been playing Fallout again, mainly because it bugged me I did not get into it, and this time I really have. Vault 13 has a water chip now, the tanks are history and now I'm hunting the master. In fantasy General 2, I have made it through the borderlands and on my way to smash up some imperials, I believe this to be about a third through. But I have also been playing, and finished Prototype 2. Mainly because, as with the first one, sometimes you just need to smash stuff up. As with many things in entertainment, the sequel never really scratches the same itch as the original, but I have enjoyed smashing up New York Zero again. I will now continue on with the other 2 unless something else in my to do list takes my fancy. ...

GTA Vice City. What happens in Vice city, stays in Vice City. San Andreas was a blast

As I left off last time, I had just finished GTA3 and was moving onto Vice City, which was done last week, 07/01/2026, and also today just completed GTA San Andreas. It is easy to see the progression from the top down 1, 69, and 2, through to the amazing game that 5 is, but my god there were some real sticking points in these 3 games. VC was a bit uneventful. Lots of major improvements over 3, especially in the combat and movement, but the map seemed much smaller. I hope it is a very long time before I have to pilot a plane or a boat again, because my god, they were some of the most infuriating missions I have played in any game. I never had to hear "All we had to do was follow the damn train CJ" as I managed to knock that one out first try, and found it pretty easy, but that was probably because I did the one where you are chasing Freddie so many times, I was a pro on the bike. In fact I did use the bike a lot in the game as it seemed ...
