Funny thing about “Were-Monster” and everyone’s insistence that it was the best episode of the run...

Well, windmills were invented A.D. 500-900, the first hydroelectric plant was built in 1882, the first geothermal plant was built in 1904, and the solar cell was invented in 1941, so they’re all older than nuclear power.

I bought it, but I don’t feel great about it, even though I’m enjoying Fallout 4. Buying a Season Pass is no different from pre-ordering (which I never do), and pre-ordering something that you don’t even entirely know what it is yet (which is ridiculous). It’s only the discount that drove me to it—I have faith that…

Have you seen Nick Valentine? He’s hideously ugly (in a cool way) and poorly dressed (in a cool way). People don’t want to bang him because he was made to be sexually objectified, they want to bang him because of his great personality, tragic backstory, and killer voice.

It’s too bad Jessica Chastain isn’t coming back, I loved her in goth/punk drag in that movie.

Yes, I very much agree: It seems like Bethesda didn’t want to even acknowledge F:NV’s improvements over F3 (like the Companion Wheel, or the marker on the map showing where your companion is, or the companion-dismissing terminals, or the skill-based speech checks, or Hardcore Mode, or special melee/unarmed moves). But…

After I went to the Combat Zone I totally had the feeling of “Is that all there is?” to the point that I checked a wiki to see if I hadn’t accidentally missed a quest there.

Yeah, I enjoyed the V/H/S movies too, and this has the bonus that it won’t be bound by the need to make everything found footage.

This does less to get me excited about the Wonder Woman movie as it does to make me wish that Rob Bricken had Zach Snyder’s job.

The best bug/glitch I’ve encountered so far (and I haven’t encountered many) is when I fast travel to an area and the enemies that respawn there act as if they were already dead from the last time I visited and killed them. Meaning, they’ll be laying on the ground not moving, but you can target them in VATS and attack…

It’s annoying that because of the way the (non-power) armor mechanics work, you’re pretty much pushed into wearing Army Fatigues and a Fedora for combat. Army Fatigues are the only* under-armor that (1) Provides a +2 SPECIAL bonus, (2) allows you to wear all five external armor pieces, and (3) can be upgraded with…

Get the hell out of here with your Iron Giant ranking.

This article is a good dissection of how terrible it is when every story development is treated as a possible future reveal or twist:

I ran into this issue, and was able to find this non-console solution on a forum: Make sure you’re not building the reflector platform on any kind of floor structure or carpet. The reflector platform is on a thick base that needs to sink into the floor to be aligned properly with the beam emitter. In my case, I just…

That was way, way, way better than I was expecting! And it’s good to know you can do that—I figured if you ate everything you had at once, most of it would just go to waste and have no effect as you were already at maximum health.

Having finally watched this, I was a little disappointed... I’d hoped it would be 6 minutes of this GIF, with added Deathclaws and Radscorpions and Bloodbugs joining in the race, right up until he reached Virgil’s door. Maybe I’ll reproduce this feat wearing only speed-boosting armor and see how much of an entourage I…

Yeah, I only use Power Armor on very limited occasions. I do however have around ten sets of it standing around my workshop in Sanctuary Hills taking up space.

Yeah, I wouldn’t call it “easy mode” so much as “fun mode” since now you can do silly things like... run through the Glowing Sea naked.

Here ya go. (Drawn by Patrick Alexander for the now defunct eegra.com back in 2009.)

Went looking for this at level 50—I’m just getting around to the Glowing Sea now, and wanted to have the best Power Armor for it, even though I have a couple of T-60s. Strangely, the armor looked like a T-60, causing me much disappointment, but it was labelled as X-01 Mark III. When I got in the armor it suddenly…
