Very true about the Nipton/Novac thing. It could be why I initially didn’t care for New Vegas as much as I did FO3 on the first playthrough. I decided to give NV another chance though, and am playing it heavily modded on PC this time. I’ve really fallen in love with it. But the mods do help. But yeah, I remember kind…

Before I read the article, when I saw that, I immediately thought Mirelurk, so I would bet that’s it, yes.

Great choice, but her accent is really gonna bug me while watching the movie. Most of the trailer, she does a pretty decent American accent, but that one bit - "We've been prepping for you to arrive for over a decade." Yipes. Still totally jazzed to see the film...

The big difference is that when I installed Trapster, Google Maps (w/traffic) served as a better GPS by far, and I wasn't going to have two map apps running at the same time. By the time I installed Waze, it was a better "get around" app than Google Maps. I also use it almost every day. It has saved me hours and hours…

I had a Thunderbolt too, and it's safe to say that you're going to do so much better with ANY Android phone these days than that abomination - skin or no skin. That said, I have a Nexus 5 and one of the best things about it is the pure Android experience. I had a Note 2 for a while, but TouchWiz was terrible.…

Funny, I stopped watching House the season they shook up the original cast, but he was the first character that popped into my mind when I read the headline.

no wireless charging, no forward compatibility with band 12 if you're on T-Mo for the OnePlus

I'm passing on this too, unfortunately. My requirements for a Nexus 5 replacement are about $500 max price, 5.2-5.5", band 12, wireless charging, pure android. Not much to ask.

You cropped out the vault dweller!

I have a 2002 TJ as my daily driver and I like this Renegade a lot. I also LOVE the new Grand Cherokee (and actually bought a 2014, which was bought back by Chrysler several months later when it couldn't stay out of the dealer's repair shop), AND the Cherokee. I just wish Jeep would pay a little more attention to…

I would pay extra to get a real transmission *only* because of that rubberband effect. I just can't get over that it feels like an automatic transmission that needs some serious service.

Perfect! You win the internet today. ;)

There was one HL2 delay that was particular agony. Remember when some hacker or something grabbed a whole bunch of Valve's HL2 property and they had to backtrack 6 months or something? GRRRRR. My friend was like "guess what? they just pushed HL2 back." Noooo!

Yay Storyland!

They found an alien baby in a Russian wood
A man in the delta named Johnny B. Goode
A two-headed cow and a fish that walks
A vampire lover and a monkey that talks
A boy with wings and ice that's hot
They found the face of Jesus on an Elvis plate
And snow that fell on the sunshine state

Ha. I just started my second play-through a couple days ago. I decided to set a save point and then destroy Megaton just to see what it looked like. First time I played FO3, I played as a complete good guy. I was tempted to do the same this go around, but I think I might just leave Metaton destroyed and just keep…

Didn't hate Vegas, but I didn't like how much more "social" it was. Wandering the wasteland in Fallout3 and discovering little pockets of civilization and giant satellite dishes and famous places that had just been destroyed was infinitely more satisfying than dealing with all the factions and things in Vegas. I did…

NYC "counts" as part of New England?? Tell that to any NE or NY sports fan and you'll be in a world of hurt in two seconds. You obviously haven't been to either city. Maybe a break from the video games is in order.

You do know that Boston and New York are different cities, right?

"Talons" way too low, "The Sensorites" WAY WAY WAY too low, and "The Sunmakers" way way too high. Robots of Death should be higher as well. A couple other gripes, but by and large, a very solid list.
