Dead Money Coming Soon To PC And PS3, More DLC To Follow
I’m sure all my fellow Fallout fanatics have heard this by now (and wondered why I haven’t been flippingtheeffout about it) but for those of you who’ve either tuned out or had serious head injuries *raises hand* you’ll be glad to hear the news from Bethesda regarding DLC. The PC and PS3 releases of Fallout: New Vegas will finally see the arrival of Dead Money, coming to life on February 22. In the coming months we’re supposed to get even more DLC, with a simultaneous release on all platforms.
So what would you guys like to have happen in the New Vegas DLC? I’m thinking sex scene with Boone. Yes.

Two Words: Marry Me
Oh hell yeah, I’d totally get pregnant by that. Bonus: being able to boast at having “helmet-on sex for once”. Take that, sadly underused Darth Vader costume. On right, by VilleLeskinen.
This meticulously created NCR Veternan Ranger costume from Fallout: New Vegas was crafted by a dude known as Kommisar. Which coincidentally will look bitchin’ in the “FATHER” section on a birth certificate.

Good news for me: I recognize all these characters. Good news for us all: the artist says he’s taking requests for posters via his Twitter! Follow the link below…
Spend Cash, Get Nuka And Sunset Sarsaparilla Caps
Well, the Nuka caps are just darlin’ but I think wearing that one on the left would be just askin’ for trouble:
$9.00 for the set, in classic Nuka red, Nuka Quantum blue, and Sunset Sarsaparilla, complete with blue star. All are weathered to perfection and ready to be slipped onto a necklace. Just, you know, be careful with that. By Phenocrystminiatures.
Rumor Mill: Fallout Vegas DLC’s
(what better way to kill time waiting for a new DLC?)
One of the many things I liked about New Vegas was that it left me wanting to explore more. People were leaving verbal clues everywhere about places outside New Vegas. The one that really killed me was the road that the Mojave Outpost was guarding. Where did that road go? Why couldn’t I leave? Others were a little more vague, such as the Legions’ Burning Man, or Crimson Caravan’s New Canaan outpost. You KNEW there was more out there, but it was just out of reach.
With luck our questions will be answered sooner instead of later. ZeniMax has registered three new possible DLC names; Honest Hearts, Lonesome Road, and Old World Blues. While there are only small clues as to where they will take us, just the fact that there’s more to discover is enough for me. Hopefully they’ll be a little longer than Dead Money. I loved the DLC, but I wanted more more MORE! I also wish the area could be revisited after the quest was over. I’d try and be patient, but I put all my skill points into Barter…

Kick Back With A Refreshing Nuka Cola Shirt
Sunset Sarsaparilla might be the popular drink of choice at the moment. But don’t forget about ole Nuka Cola. After all, it comes in red (Victory), white (Quartz), and blue (Quantum). That means it’s the drink of AMURICA.
Celebrate the drink that makes post nuclear USA great with this shirt from the U.K., £15.00, from GamerPrint.
Fallout: New Vegas: Freeballin’ In Freeside
Well, I’m finally rounding out about 120 or so hours into my Fallout: New Vegas file. Yes, my first one. Of a planned 3. At least. I’m finally starting to feel familiar with a few key areas, and in feeling so, am ready to share some screen shots.
Ah, childhood. Hustlin’ weapons on the corner.
Chasing rats in the street. *sigh* The building blocks of fond memories.
You should actually listen to the child, Mick and Ralph’s has a “secret” weapon selection, and I recall picking up a bitchin’ grenade machine gun there.
It’s great how they’ve incorporated some sort of d/evolution of Vegas culture at every turn. The Kings was a nice touch. You should definitely go inside and acquaint yourself with their leader, as you can run a few errands that ultimately leave you with Rex, the robotic dog, as a companion.
I really should have taken some snaps of the Van Graff’s before I…well…it wasn’t pretty. But Gloria Van Graff and Jean-Baptist Cutting are. Was a shame they couldn’t stick around but given what they did to a certain drunk friend of mine, I figure we’re even now.
Any doctor rockin’ a mohawk is alright by me, but I also took this snap because I’m endlessly amused by the various mission names in this game. High Times undoubtedly one of my favorites. Julie Farkas is pretty cool too (don’t forget the snowglobe up in her room). The Followers are holed up at the Old Mormon Fort, including Arcade Ganon:
After running around for the Followers of the Apocalypse, my favorite faction of the game (secular humanism ftw), I decided to move onto slummin’ for Silver Rush Casino and The Atomic Wrangler. My first Wranglin’ job was actually rounding up a bunch of prostitutes to fill their rooms, and I luckily knew just the peeps for the job. There are a lot of characters in New Vegas who seem to have no use at first, but I knew better from Fallout 3. Old Ben for instance, I knew would come in use.
What I didn’t anticipate, however, was robot sex.
You sweet talker you.
One of the best things about this game has to be that I can be a mouthy slut. I can fuck pretty much everything, and I can sass ‘em while I’m at it. I’ve made it my personal mission to have every character that will have sex with me. That includes Beatrix:
In fact, she just sounds fun.
As you leave Cerulean Robotics (home of the sex robot), you’ll run into another Wild Wasteland encounter, Hell’s Grannies, another Monty Python reference.
Bear Five!
This Fallout: New Vegas mod serves one purpose and one purpose alone: to add the above line to the opening sequence with Doc Mitchell.
I love it, but I still think they need another: pelvic x-ray. I’m not the only one seeing that, right?

I’ll not sully these charming vintage game poster mock ups with my commentary. Enjoy.
You Look Like You Could Use A Sunset Sarsaparilla… Door Mat
Sometimes it’s good to be a doormat. Not good for the doormat, but hey, good for me! This Sunset Sarsparilla mat, a replica of those you see scattered all over the bottling plant in Fallout: New Vegas, appears to be a hook rug. Which is very fitting ‘cause I’m already hooked.
Fallout: New Vegas Dead Money Trailer And Screen Shots
This isn’t the first time I’ve posted something without having even looked at it. But it IS the first time I’ve done so out of spite. Dead Money, the first batch of Fallout: New Vegas DLC, comes to Xbox 360 tomorrow. Check out the trailer above, screen shots below.
That better be an Xbox-exclusive shame spiral you’re sittin’ in, ahole.
Dedicated Handyman Makes Working Platinum Chip From Fallout: New Vegas
This is a “working” Platinum Chip although of course it isn’t *really* a Platinum Chip, ‘cause if it was, the creator would currently be hunted and tracked down by all sorts of unsavory types. Come to think of it…I don’t know that anyone’s heard from him lately. Can we get someone to scout the local graveyards please?
Comprehensive Fallout: New Vegas Patch On The Way, Says Bethesda
Typos and bugs gettin’ you down? Help is on the way. Bethesda has announced via Facebook:
“We’ve wrapped up work on the Fallout: New Vegas patch and submitted it. Will let you know when it’s up on PS3, 360, and Steam.”
Oh, you mean it isn’t only for Xbox 360 players? Now why would I EVER get that idea? Hopefully this patch will fix the many misspellings I’ve seen so far. Last night I saw the word “access” spelled as “acess”. Nuff to make me do a virtual head slam.
