'Exploding Pants' on Fallout 3, what the hell is that all about then?

Pickpocket someone, then leave a grenade in their inventory I think.

Never tried it myself but I think that's right.

[NiteFall]

Yep. Or a mine.

[monkeyman]

It's very amusing.


It's a shame that Star Wars battlefront 3 is (for the time being) cancelled, Dark obi Wan looks awesome:

I like the mysterious stranger.

[Rua]

That's quite a serious plot change.

[GundamGuy_UK]

When was this announced?!

I'd have thought they'd have pumped out a few more expansions for 2 first.

You should, there's an achievement in it for you.

I'm definitely giving that a go!

Finally completed Horde on Gears 2 tonight, although there were only 3 of us. 860 points now, getting to the point where I've got all the achievements I can be arsed with on that game.

I did that with three friends on the first weekend of release, I got booted out of the game at around level 25 so I didn't get the achievement . Shitty Live connection.

Cant be arsed doing it again.

You do know you don't have to do it all in one sitting? You can just start again at level 25 and just continue from there. It just remembers all the waves you have done, like I helped a bunch of people at work do 50 ages ago, so I got the achievement last night after completing wave 49.

Finished Fallout 3 yesterday with a good ending then reloaded and played the bad ending as well. It just goes to show that it doesn't really matter how you play the game throughout as you can make whatever choices you fancy whenever you like. I see what Zeden knows about the extra content not making sense if you finish the game with a good ending though. I'd like to see how they get around that. Also, it was a bit annoying as I had Fawkes the Super Mutant with me who would have been able to press the switch without dying but he just said it was my destiny. Bastard. In the end though, I think I did about half of the extra missions so I'll probably play through it again but do different missions and play it evil. Once I got to about level 17 I just ploughed through the main story quest so as not to waste too much XP or time on missions and exploring with no experience gain. Roll on March and the new level cap I say.

[Nonus Aequilibri...]

I'm not too worried about the level cap, I fully intend to start a brand new evil character anyway when I've finished with my current one.

I'm looking forward to starting an evil character this evening. I may make her a woman actually just to mix it up a bit. I'll be sure to keep my final saved file of my good character as well though so I can decide who to play through the extra content with. I'm hoping that the abundance of different quests that I haven't done yet and locations that I never even went to this time round (such as Evergreen Mills) will mean that I can have a completely different game on this play through.
