“Death is a Preferable Alternative to Communism!”

close but no cigar. Penis shaped lightbox arrays that *EJACULATE FIRE* will be a thing.

it's not just about the courier's story though. Lonesome Road explicitly presents the core themes of the whole Fallout universe's storyline. After the collapse of society, what is the right answer? to try and reclaim what was lost, or move on and build something entirely new (or at least, significantly different).…

I've started working on a couple of minecraft mods recently, and really I'm not having too much trouble with stuff by way of Forge. Sure it would be nice to have the core game support a mod API directly, but Forge has done all the legwork for most people now. Even end-users have it easy now.. just drop the zip/jar…

dammit Kotaku, when do I just get to +1 comments, instead of having to reply to them? Oh well, here we go. I was very confident that this remake would be good.. I was there at PAX East when they went "yeah, we can add the soldiers with the Guile hairstyle back in as DLC!" (thanks to a question from the audience, no…

Let's not forget the other rather nifty story about RADAR while we're on the subject.

Yeeeeahhhhh.. We should all change our behavior in relation to the perceived probability of a highly-unlikely event. The TSA Model of Birth Control, right here.

Thank you Thank you Thank You.. You just made me remember "Stare Into the Fist of Dredd" and the accompanying wave of teenage comicbook nostalgia. So much Badassness in only one panel.

We Denver residents have long referred to Aurora as "Saudi Aurora" for the prevalence of gang violence and low-income housing there. It is no where near one of the safest cities in the US.

If memory serves me right, the commander in the mobile desk was paraplegic, thus *all* his furniture came on little wheels. Build the story around the limitations, indeed.

I actually wish they'd do one of their animated films, on Rocket Racoon's origin story. The whole tale of Halfworld (the hospice-world) was one of the best-written comic tales I read as a kid in the 80's
